Shrimp farming

The gate of a traditional shrimp farm in Kerala, India which uses the tide to harvest shrimp

Shrimp farming is a form of aquaculture that takes place in marine or freshwater environments, producing shrimp or prawns[Note 1] (crustaceans of the groups Caridea or Dendrobranchiata) for human consumption. However, the industry has raised concerns about environmental damage to mangrove ecosystems, reliance on slave labor, and animal welfare issues.[1]
