[ PART II. REVIEW OF RESPONSIBLE SHRIMP FARMING ]

Prepared by Dr. Claude Boyd and other members of the GAA Technical Committee, the 10 codes contained in Part I of the guide (see below) are intended to assist in the development of national or regional codes, as well as to provide direction for individual shrimp farm operators. In its Review of Responsible Shrimp Farming, Part II of "Codes of Practice for Responsible Shrimp Farming" reviews shrimp production technology and farming techniques that address both sustainability and efficiency. Visit these pages for a general overview of the industry and its relationship to the environment.
