Mời các bạn cùng tìm hiểu. | Quang Đien District has a great potential in aquacultural development. Endowed with 3,850 ha of water surface (accounting for total area of Tam Giang - Cau Hai lagoon of Thua Thien Hue Province), aquacultural development in general and shrimp farming in particularly play an important role in exploiting the comparative advantages of the locality and improving the living condition of farming households. Currently, there are two types of shrimp farming in the district: improved-extensive farming and semi-intensive farming. The findings show that the income of the households from shrimp culture is affected by several factors such as the capacity of the household head, the type of farming, the foods consumed (industrial or fresh food) ect. The study also illustrates that semi-intensive farming not only brings in higher profit but also gives better protection to the ecosystem than the improved-extensive farming does. However, the farmers have to deal with many difficulties such as finding markets, foods and breeding, environment and diseases ect. In order to boost the shrimp raising industry, the study suggests following solutions: a) general planning of exploiting and using lagoon resources; b) upgrading infrastructure and service system; c) credit policies; d) aqua-cultural extension services; and e) market.
