'My biggest disappointment': Lack of transparency is destroying the shrimp farming industry, says CP Foods exec

The lack of the transparency in the global farmed shrimp industry is causing preventable disasters, according to CP Foods Vice President Robins McIntosh.

"I think one of the biggest disappointments I have in the industry today is loss of transparency," he told IntraFish as Thailand, once a shrimp farming powerhouse, again sinks into a quagmire of disease and high mortalities.

"In the 90s, when white spot hit, everybody raised their hand when they got infected and it was a community effort," he said.
