Thai shrimp prices keep rising
Shrimp prices in Thailand are still rising as the early mortality syndrome (EMS) saga continues, Jim Gulkin, managing director at Siam Canadian, told IntraFish when we stopped by the company's booth.
For 60 pieces buyers have to fork out THB 267 (€6.30/$8.50) today, while a month ago -- on Sept. 2 -- they paid THB 232 (€5.50/$7.40), Gulkin said.
For 70 pieces, prices have jumped from THB 221 (€5.20/$7.10) last month to THB 255 (€6/$8.20)
