Organization Description:

Shrimp Welfare Project (SWP) collaborates closely with global producers, seafood suppliers, and retailers to improve farming practices, especially in harvest and slaughter, by providing consultation on best practices, implementation strategies, and offering free services and equipment to aid in the transition. SWP also runs technical programs to improve pond management, water quality, and stocking densities, and partners with companies to secure welfare commitments that benefit billions of shrimp, alongside positive outcomes for farmers and the environment.

Role in Indian Shrimp Aquaculture: India is one of SWP's two priority countries, home to its Sustainable Shrimp Farmers of India (SSFI) program and its scoping report on Indian shrimp welfare. SWP works with Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat farmers and processors on sludge management, electric stunning, and higher-welfare production, including a multi-stakeholder MoU in Gujarat.
