Abstract

Coastal aquaculture in Bangladesh was started in the early 1970s with extensive production system which gradually progress towards semi-intensive mode of shrimp monoculture and extended to about 150,000ha of coastal land. The extent of farming area has been horizontally increased that gradually encroached mangrove forest, agricultural land and wet meadows as well as creating ecological imbalance and environmental hazards. Unfortunately, there have been repeated production losses since 1994 principally for white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) epidemics along with related disease conditions.
