Isi artikel

Like other Asian countries, such as India, Indonesia and Thailand, Bangladesh has been gradually emerging as an important producer of cultured shrimp. The country produces about 4% of the annual global shrimp production along its coastal belt. The shrimp culture has had a significant impact on the economy of Bangladesh, but it has had high environmental costs too. The farmed shrimp industry (which represents a substantial component of the aquaculture) has often been criticized for its environmental damage. With the expansion of brackish-water shrimp culture the environmental impact has. become a major issue. The main objective of this paper is, to show that there is a lot more to be gained by looking closely at the economic, social and environmental implicat ions of the expansion of coastal shrimp culture, and its future in Bangladesh.
