Wild-caught shrimp exports to the U.S. can resume after Mexican officials came to an agreement with their U.S. counterparts, reactivating a US $300-million industry.
United States officials had suspended Mexico’s shrimp certification due to what they saw as inadequate protection measures for sea turtles.
The agreement allows for shrimp exports which are not caught by deep sea trawlers, and so pose no threat to turtles.
For trade to proceed, Mexico must find a way for the origin of a shrimp catch to be identifiable, and present the strategy before U.S. officials by June 1.
