Abstract
Risk identification and consideration are vital for development and future planning of shrimp aquaculture. For survey of production and development characteristics of shrimp hatcheries in Iran, a questionnaire was prepared based on international standards and references, and several stockholders of shrimp hatcheries were consulted. Results indicated that feed, foreign technician, and financial resources is the major challenges of Iranian shrimp hatcheries. Major objective of this research was to obtain opinions and experiences of stockholders that active in shrimp hatcheries in Iran. Indentification of present challenges of Iranian shrimp hatcheries was another objective of the study. Creating a ground for cooperation between the Universities, industry and State administration is important to identify the issues existing in the shrimp culture industry and to put forward practical and feasible solutions. The ground that each section trust other and see “otherness experience” as own experience. It is needs reconstruction and redefinition of experiences and concepts in this framework.
