THE GLOBAL AQUACULTURE NETWORK - INFORMATION
PROMOTING EFFICIENCY WITHIN THE SHRIMP INDUSTRY
Overview
The aquaculture network is designed to be used to collect, process and disseminate
market, product, technical and research and development information.
Marketing and product technical information
The importance of the international shrimp trade makes accurate and up-to-date
commercial information on trade vital. Reliable market information is a
key ingredient for successful trade of shrimp and shrimp products. Supporting
the trade network will be a de-centralised computerized database which will
provide a range of international shrimp market indicators from monthly production
and trade statistics to supply and demand figures as well as other general
economic data related to the shrimp industry. As well as market information
the network will provide statistical analysis on a range of products used
in production, including regional usage and technical information on product
quality and reliability as assessed by laboratory and field trials.
Research and development technology transfer
Effective collection and access to information is an integral part of research.
Lack of access to information causes a serious problem for researchers and
experts. The network will address the needs of scientists, researchers and
all those who need access to latest R&D by establishing an international
database network to facilitate the global dissemination of scientific and
technical information. The service will also provide discussion forums for
researchers and experts to exchange ideas.
Shrimp directory
The network will offer a registry encompassing the vertical integration
of the industry, from production through to trading; suppliers through to
manufacturers; institutions/universities through to government agencies
and all information sources from databanks to journals. Through its broad
array of information services, the network will help customers gain wider
exposure to the world shrimp community and to overcome the limitations experienced
in present information management systems.
