to the country.
to the country.
Vietnamese vannamei is the "bright spot" of the industry's exports, so how should the strategic direction of development be taken to meet people's expectations and how can it contribute to the seafood industry to the top of the world?
At the seminar, the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP) pointed out that in the first eight months of this year, Vietnam's seafood exports reached US$7.
7 billion, an increase of 38% over the same period last year, of which shrimp exports amounted to US$3 billion, catfish exports valued US$1.

Truong Dinh Hoe, president of the VASEP Association, said that of the total shrimp exports of $3 billion in the first eight months of this year, vannamei accounted for about 75%, black tiger shrimp accounted for 13.
7% (16% in 2021) and other species of shrimp accounted for 11% (9% in 2021).

Truong Dinh Hoe, in terms of farming area, as of 2021, there are about 600,000 hectares of black tiger shrimp farms and about 150,000 hectares of vannamei farms in the country, however, the production of black tiger shrimp only contributes about 250,000 tons, while the production of vannamei can reach about 700,000 tons

From the comparison data of export value and breeding area, it can be seen that the culture area of vannamei in South America is only 25% of the culture area of black tiger shrimp, but the export value is 5.
5 times that of black tiger shrimp, and the export value of vannamei in South America reached 2.
25 billion US dollars in the first 8 months of 2022, while the black tiger shrimp was only 411 million US dollars

In the upcoming planning strategy, Truong Dinh Hoe suggests: first, to increase the farm area in terms of culture scale, create a stable and positive supply, and in terms of quality, create opportunities for the development of the shrimp industry at good competitive prices; Secondly, the culture area of black tiger shrimp was reasonably converted to vannamei culture; Third, in terms of planning strategy, wild shrimp, rice shrimp and other breeding areas should be studied and planned, and should have sustainability certification
