ABOUT THE VOLUNTEERING WORK:

• Please find the required translation in the attached file:

     Shrimp farming has been a big industry in Vietnam for decades, especially the Mekong delta. When we zoom out the Mekong delta on the Google Earth, in addition to the rice fields, the second biggest parts are shrimp farms. It is an indispensable sector for the local farmers. However, when the world has been industrialized, shrimp farming with industrial farming style has become the game changer in this area. Obviously, the speed of industrialzed shrimp farms is as equal as the speed of harming the soil where the shrimp farms are.

     However, it is impossible to stop everyone from doing this giant business. We, MangLub Vietnam, would like to convince them that there is always another choice which balances the income & the nature. This method is called to live in harmony with the nature, or in the other words, the shrimp – mangrove model. We call them “Clean Shrimp” instead of “organic shrimp”. This is not completely new. On the contrary, it is traditional farming method in which mangrove trees are planted into the shrimp farms. And the shrimps are fed with nothing except the planktons, the mangrove leaves. And no biotics or chemicals are added to the pond. Shrimp is simply living with the nature.

     This website is built to connect the clean shrimp farmers with the world. We would like to introduce the trusted shrimp farmers who are doing the shrimp – mangrove model. They are the farmers participting in our mangrove projects since 2023 in the 4 – year duration. This project funds them the mangrove seedlings, planting and tending workers.
