PT ATINA and ASIC
East Java, Indonesia
The Sidoarjo Ecoshrimp AIP operates in Sidoarjo City, East Java, Indonesia, and will increase the market recognition of responsible shrimp farming by verifying extensive shrimp farming to the ASIC Shrimp protocol. This will be achieved via a collaboration between local farmers and traders, a processing plant PT. Aler Trade Indonesia (PT ATINA) and support from the Department of Fisheries in Sidoarjo (Balai Besar Perikanan Budidaya Air Pau Jepara) and the Asian Seafood Improvement Collaborative.
AIP aims:
- Verify shrimp farming practices to the ASIC Shrimp protocol
- Promote low environmental impact shrimp farming practices that increase social equity by building the capacity of local shrimp farmers
- Promote coordination among farmers to minimize disease risks*
- Promote collaboration and use of an effective traceability system among farmers
- Promote and develop policies and programs with local government and associated agencies that support local shrimp farmers and communities
*The ASIC Shrimp Protocol under the Shrimp Health Section requires farmers to coordinate and inform neighboring farms if a disease is observed and to develop relevant management actions
