Peru has great potential for aquaculture development for various species. However, the number of Peruvian exports is limited due to the presence of certain diseases.

Through this PPG, a feasibility analysis study was developed to assess the potential impact and technical and economic feasibility of implementing international standards – detailed in the WOAH and FAO manuals – on zoning as a tool to control infectious diseases in white shrimp in Piura and Tumbes.

The cost-benefit analysis determined that maintenance of the zoning for Peruvian shrimp is feasible and profitable. A roadmap is being prepared for the implementation of zoning in the country.
