Delving into the Ebb and Flow: India's Shrimp Production and Export Dynamics
Niraj Kumar and Soumyabrata Sarkar*
Abstract
The fisheries sector in India, particularly shrimp farming, is pivotal for economic growth, employing over 7 million people. However, the industry faces challenges from infectious diseases, incurring significant economic losses globally. Despite this, recent advancements in farming techniques and technology have propelled the Indian shrimp industry's productivity, quality, and global competitiveness. The market reached $7.3 billion in 2022, projected to grow at 11%, reaching $14 billion by 2028. Black tiger shrimp production declined due to disease issues, with a shift to Pacific white-leg shrimp, preferred for its resilience and productivity. Scampi production has surged, showing substantial growth potential. India, the world's fourth- largest seafood exporter, witnesses a steady increase in frozen shrimp exports, contributing significantly to the country's GDP. The sector's positive outlook is driven by increasing domestic and international demand, favourable geographical conditions, and a shift towards value-added shrimp products.
