(seafood.vasep.com.vn) Thanh Hoa’s shrimp sector is undergoing a strong transformation by accelerating the adoption of high technology, helping to improve productivity, increase profits, and meet market demands. The province currently has about 4,100 hectares of shrimp farming, with output continuing to rise despite stable farming area, mainly due to the shift from traditional methods to intensive and super-intensive farming.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) Following damage caused by Storm No. 13 in late 2025, brackish water shrimp farming in Gia Lai is being rapidly restored. In key farming areas such as Tuy Phước and Tuy Phước Đông, farmers are focusing on rehabilitating ponds, repairing infrastructure, and treating the environment in preparation for the 2026 crop.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) Vietnam’s shrimp industry is entering a period of strong transformation with the emergence of various high-tech farming models, helping improve productivity and competitiveness. Over the past 5–10 years, farming practices have shifted from traditional methods to intensive and super-intensive systems, featuring lined ponds, environmental sensors, automated feeding, and data management.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) With a focus on sustainable development, high-tech application, and climate change adaptation, An Giang Province aims to maintain its brackish water shrimp production in 2026 at a level equivalent to the previous year. Specifically, output is projected to reach over 155,510 tons, serving both domestic consumption and export processing, thereby sustaining the fisheries sector’s key role in the local economic structure.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) On the afternoon of March 19, Vice Chairman of the Ca Mau Provincial People’s Committee, Le Van Su, chaired a meeting to address bottlenecks and propose solutions to expand the super-intensive whiteleg shrimp farming model using low water exchange and high biosecurity standards (RAS-IMTA).

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) Amid the increasingly evident impacts of drought and saltwater intrusion, the shrimp-rice production model in Ca Mau province continues to prove itself as a viable direction, contributing to higher farmer incomes, improved soil conditions and the promotion of ecological and sustainable agricultural development.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) Ca Mau, widely regarded as the nation’s “shrimp capital”, continued its strong performance in 2025 as shrimp output reached nearly 600,000 tons, maintaining its position as Vietnam’s leading shrimp-producing locality.

(seafoos.vasep.com.vn) According to the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Vinh Long, the province’s shrimp farming area reached 69,800 hectares in 2025, including 7,500 hectares under high-tech farming models, 18,820 tons of black tiger shrimp and 293,000 tons of whiteleg shrimp.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) While Vietnam’s shrimp exports to the EU maintained positive growth momentum in 2025, several new regulations related to animal welfare are transitioning from “ethical recommendations” to mandatory requirements, likely reshaping the shrimp supply chain for this market from 2026 onwards.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) Ca Mau has exceeded its 2025 production targets, reaching nearly 595,000 tons of shrimp. This milestone reinforces the province’s position as Vietnam’s leading shrimp producer and a bright spot in the country’s seafood sector.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) According to Vietnam Customs data, cumulative shrimp exports from the beginning of the year through November reached $4.3 billion, up 21% year-on-year, continuing to serve as the primary growth driver of the entire seafood sector. In November alone, export turnover amounted to $393 million, up 14%.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) The People's Committee of Ca Mau Province has just issued a plan to expand the super-intensive, low-water-exchange, biosecure white-leg shrimp farming model (RAS-IMTA) for whiteleg shrimp farming to a scale of 1,500 hectares, aiming to develop high-tech, sustainable and environmentally friendly shrimp farming.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) Vietnam’s shrimp exports in the first nine months of 2025 surpassed $3.4 billion, up 22% year-on-year - marking the highest growth rate in three years. The surge is driven primarily by rebounding demand in major markets including China, the U.S, the EU and the CPTPP bloc, along with exporters’ flexible adaptation in product mix and market strategy despite ongoing U.S. tariff pressures.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) – Many farmers in Ca Mau are successfully adopting zero water discharge - recirculating shrimp farming systems. The approach not only reduces costs and increases profitability but also promotes sustainable development that meets international export standards.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) - According to Vietnam Customs data, Vietnam’s shrimp exports to the EU reached $434 million in the first nine months of 2025, up 21% year-on-year. September alone surged by 48%. Double-digit growth was recorded across all three major importing markets within the bloc

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) At the conference on August 17 reviewing the progress of expanding the high-density, low-water-exchange and biosecure whiteleg shrimp farming model, Vice Chairman of the Ca Mau Provincial People's Committee, Le Van Su, emphasized the goal of Ca Mau achieving 1,000 hectares of clean shrimp farming.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) According to Vietnam Customs data, as of August 15, 2025, Vietnam’s shrimp exports to China and Hong Kong reached nearly $767 million, up 76% compared to the same period last year and accounting for nearly 29% of Vietnam's total shrimp export value. This is the fastest-growing market for Vietnamese shrimp this year. In the first half of August alone, export value reached nearly $57 million, making up almost 30% of the nation's total shrimp exports.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) Facing market fluctuations and disease challenges, An Giang Province is implementing a high-tech agriculture transformation plan to enhance productivity, reduce risks and promote sustainable shrimp farming. By 2025, the province’s brackish-water shrimp farming area is projected to reach 137,000 hectares, with an estimated output exceeding 155,000 tons, positioning shrimp as one of the locality’s key economic pillars.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) For many years, Vietnamese shrimp has been the “star” of seafood exports, with the US, EU, Japan, and China as key markets. However, this picture is gradually changing. High tariffs from the US, fierce competition from India and Ecuador, along with rising domestic production costs, are creating serious challenges for Vietnamese shrimp exporters. In this context, bringing shrimp back to the domestic market is not only a temporary solution but could also become a long-term strategy, creating a second pillar alongside exports.

(seafood.vasep.com.vn) Ca Mau is implementing an advanced intensive farming model for whiteleg shrimp using the RAS-IMTA technology (recirculating aquaculture system combined with integrated multi-trophic aquaculture).
