Thai shrimp recovery? Not so much, is the picture IntraFish got after talking to some industry watchers on the Thaifex show floor going on this week in Thailand.
"At the beginning of the year we thought we'd recover [from EMS] but it hasn't happened," Siam Canadian's Gulkin told IntraFish.
"We were probably too optimistic," he said. "It was speculative optimism."
Production levels will probably not achieve Department of Fisheries' prediction of 350,000 metric tons this year, but probably settle at 300,000 metric tons for the whole year.
