Kien Giang and Bac Lieu provinces in Vietnam are facing a significant challenge due to the vast production of 14,800 tons and 3 tons/day of giant freshwater shrimp, respectively, with harvest expected in August. This surplus, coupled with reduced domestic consumption and export opportunities due to the Covid-19 pandemic, has led to a drastic drop in shrimp prices. Giant freshwater shrimp prices have fallen by 20%, and other shrimp types by varying degrees, causing concern among farmers about their livelihoods and the management of such a large supply. The situation underscores the impact of the pandemic on agricultural markets and the urgent need for solutions to support farmers in these challenging times.
