Importance of Water Quality and Sanitary Control in Shrimp Aquaculture

In recent years, shrimp aquaculture has been experiencing serious problems, mainly due to poor water quality and poor sanitary operations, which has led to economic losses and low-quality products. This has caused shrimp farms to close down or reduce their economic profits. This book provides the results of studies that demonstrate these problems. On the other hand, Asian countries are becoming the main producers, leaving other countries such as African and Latin American countries in a disadvantaged competitive condition; therefore, this book can give these countries the opportunity to improve their production techniques and thus become more competitive.
