Table 8 shows Thailand as the fifth world’s major catch shrimp
Table 8 shows Thailand as the fifth world’s major catch shrimp producer following China, India, Indonesia and the USA. Data further shows that the yearly production of sea-caught shrimp by those countries do not vary much yearly which is understandable as a country’s fishing ground is limited only to its surrounding sea area.
