Committee of the Mekong Delta province of Soc Trang met representatives of the Viet-Uc
Seafood Joint Stock Company on March 9 to discuss building the first high
quality shrimp farm in the locality.
The 40 billion VND (about 1.75 million USD)
project will sprawl 23 hectares in Huynh Ky Hamlet, Vinh Hai Commune, Vinh Chau
District. Once operational, it will produce 3 – 4 billion juvenile shrimps.
The project aims to provide shrimp to
producers nationwide, said Tony Dang Quoc Tuan, Vice President of Director
Board of the Viet – Uc Seafood Joint Stock Company, adding that it is also
hoped to help build a Vietnam shrimp brand.
Construction of the farm is set to start
in April this year, helping Vinh Chau become a centre for supplying shrimp
products and high-quality young shrimps in the Mekong Delta.
The farm is expected to boost
development of the local aquaculture sector while contributing 30 – 50 billion
VND a year to the local budget.
Agencies in Vinh Chau District have been
asked to carry out land clearance and support the investor in completing
documents to implement the project, said Le Thanh Tri, Vice Chairman of the
provincial People’s Committee.
As the biggest young shrimp producer in
Vietnam, the Viet – Uc Seafood Company has seven shrimp farms from Nghe An to
Ca Mau and one super-intensive indoor shrimp farming system in Bac Lieu.-VNA
