Abstract
  • It is well known that world production of shrimp, particularly farm-raised product, has increased significantly since the early-to-mid 1980's and that much of the product is directed to the U.S. market. Less well known is the fact that the product composition of the U.S. imported product (e.g., headless shell-on, peeled) has also changed significantly and that the changing composition, in conjunction with the absolute growth in imports, has resulted in considerable economic changes in the Southeast U.S. shrimp industry. The overall goal of this paper is to provide an economic analysis of the role of increasing imports and changing product composition on Southeast U.S. shrimp processing activities. The goal is accomplished, based on primary and secondary data sources, by: (a) determining the significance, dependence, and product uses of imported shrimp by the Southeast U.S. processing industry, (b) determining structural changes that have occurred in the processing industry which are attributable to increasing imports and changing composition, and (c) forecasting changes that can be anticipated as a result of increased shrimp farming activities and/or pre-export processing activities.
