CARCINICULTURA NO ESTADO DA PARAIBA: PERFIL DOS PRODUTORES, VIABILIDADE ECONÔMICA E ATUAÇÃO DO MÉDICO VETERINÁRIO.

Abstract

Agribusiness is one of the many highlights in Brazil, with a strong positive influence on the country's trade balance. From the ramifications of agribusiness, shrimp farming has been developed and perfected, showing itself as a culture option for small and large investors. Shrimp farming in the Northeast has achieved prominence thanks to its vast coastal area, climate and favorable soils, in addition to the large availability of labor. For the preparation of this work, economic viability analyzes were carried out on the cultivation of shrimp in the fattening phase, in some microregions of Paraiba, by means of questionnaires. In view of the obtained data, our objective was reached, and the validity of this work was observed, with the economic viability of the shrimp through imposed characteristics.
