1 Status, Issues and Perspectives of the Global Shrimp Farming Industry: Opportunities for U.S. Shrimp Producers Darryl Jory Indiana Indoor Shrimp Production Brainstorming Session Indiana Soybean Alliance, Indianapolis, IN April 23, 2014 COMMERCIAL AQUACULTURE

2 SHRIMP FARMING Research started in Japan in 1930 s. Modern shrimp farming started in the early 1970s. Became significant in early 1990s. Cultured in over 60 countries today. > 50% of global shrimp supplies from aquaculture. Employment for millions of people. Development of poor areas. Generates US$ billion in global commerce. Low-fat; high-protein; highly unsaturated fatty acids can help in formation of high-density lipids, or good cholesterol. We import most of what we consume!

59 Shrimp Farming: Issues

60 Industry Faces Many Issues Costs (fuels, ingredients - FM/FO - biofuels) Competition Protectionism & Antidumping Seafood safety Traceability Sustainability Environmental issues Biosecurity Inland expansion Diseases Species introductions Resource limitations (water, land, labor, etc.) Domestication Price volatility / uncertainty Ingredients (GMO, others) Social aspects Commerce regulations (bioterrorism, COOL) Animal welfare Production inefficiencies New technologies Technology packages Novel financing / professional investors Official support Integration, diversification and consolidation of industry

61 Major Challenges to Aquaculture Growth 1. Disease & health management 2. Feed ingredient availability 3. Environmental limits 4. Investment capital 5. Market support

66 The average U.S. consumer ate 14.4 pounds of seafood in 2012, the last year for which figures are available, down from 15 pounds in 2011 and a record high 16.6 pounds consumed in That's far less than the average 82 pounds of chicken, 57 pounds of beef and 46 pounds of pork. Americans consume in a year.

67 Challenge 2: Availability of Feed Ingredients 67

68 FEED SUPPLY - Global compound aquafeed production has been growing at an average compound rate of over 10.7% per year since 1995, - Production increased from 7.61 million tons in 1995 to over 35 million tons in 2010, - Is expected to grow to 50 million tons by 2015, and over 70 million tons by Tacon

91 New Shrimp Production Paradigm

92 New Shrimp Production Paradigm: The Opportunity Established, large global markets that can be expanded further. Early Mortality Syndrome (EMS / APHNS) disease is a game-changer over US$ 3.5 billions in global losses since Supply not meeting demand (EMS) + demand can expand (established and new markets). New, biosecure, indoor = controlled production technologies available several competitive advantages.

93

94 New Shrimp Production Paradigm: The Technology Year-Round Production of Fresh/Chilled/Frozen Shrimp Near Major U.S. Markets

95 Shrimp-in-U.S. SWOT Analysis Strengths Large, established market. 25% of seafood consumed. Large technological base. Best aquafeed technology & ingredients. Many competitive advantages. Opportunities Promote wholesome, healthy, nutritious, no water, no ABXs US grown, US product. Increase demand (2x meals/year) = 300 million lbs more needed! Automate many procedures. Weaknesess Very limited PL supply. Limited niche markets. High cost of processing. Regulatory/fiscal environment. Threats Overseas industry recovers quickly. Cannot compete with int l commodity prices. Diseases.

96 STRATEGIES Moving Forward New paradigm needed. Production: Adopt and improve indoor/ras/biofloc technology. Improve selective breeding programs. Improve feeds and nutrition. Market: Promote home-grown shrimp consumption. US can be a shrimp exporter! Industry: Consolidate. Organize: need a voice. Strategic alliances wholesalers, retailers.

101 Conclusions Shrimp industry has developed tremendously. It faces old and new challenges (production, market, financial). The main production trends are emphasis for more efficiency at every level of the production and marketing chain, and industry consolidation. The main market trends are creation of new markets, internal and external, and increased traceability and certification. Need to transition to industrial perspective to improve profitability and sustainability, primarily in areas of: Domestication and selective breeding Nutrition and feeds Disease management Controlled production systems Increasing market demand for safe and healthy products generated in a responsible and sustainable manner will require increased traceability and certification.
