摘要

The quantity and quality of cultured shrimp have increased significantly in the global market during the past 15 years, and some farm-raised species are now regarded as price indicators in the major market places. Consequently, it is reasonable to assume that the cost of these cultured shrimp will affect the cost of other species, particularly wild shrimp with which they compete. The market place is expanding because more and more shrimp-based products are being introduced. The frozen shrimp category is expected to increase in future due to its extended shelf life, and this will trigger the growing import and export feasibility for further segment growth. Following the 2020 COVID-19 year of hardship, the industry made a full recovery. In 2022, farmed shrimp accounted for 63% of the total shrimp production. The majority of shrimp produced worldwide was dominated by Pacific whiteleg shrimp. The demand for shrimp is rising globally due to several health benefits, including no intramuscular spines and less cooking time. In future, global seafood markets will require all fresh, frozen, and wild shrimp suppliers, which must be certified and ecolabelled by 2025. The future of sustainability is promising, and certification is becoming ubiquitous. Modern climate-resilient or climate-smart aquaculture systems and cluster farming for shrimp rearing have to adapt to enhance production without exacerbating climate change. The capacity development of processing facilities, feed mills, and hatcheries will offer a strong basis for the anticipated prosperity of the shrimp industry. Though the shrimp industry is facing significant challenges due to oversupply and poor prices, there is still ample opportunity for future expansion. Producers who can increase their efficiency and adjust to shifting market conditions will be in a good position to benefit from this expansion.
