1
The shrimp industry generates large amounts of processing by -products each year.
2
Treated as waste, they pose an environmental burden.
3
Yeah, Dương, but the so -called waste or environmental burden, if they are recovered and recycled,
4
these materials can become valuable inputs for other industries.
5
Public -private cooperation is key to building a circular chain, reducing waste and increasing the value of shrimp.
6
Instead of becoming waste, shrimp shells and heads are processed using biotechnology to create more than 100 products for agriculture,
7
food, animal feed and other industries.
8
Our products can compete with international ones.
9
That is why V &F products were exported to 20 countries last year, with growth two or three times higher than the previous year.
10
This is at the heart of the circular economy, extending the life of materials, reusing them and creating added value.
11
For the shrimp industry, this is increasingly important as import markets demand not only quality but also lower emissions and traceable products.
12
We are gradually developing farming areas that meet importers' requirements for lower emissions, greater efficiency and less environmental pollution.
13
all records must be transparent and traceable." In the Mekong Delta,
14
circular models such as shrimp rice and shrimp mangrove farming are emerging.
15
Shrimp heads and shells are also used to produce chitin, chitosan, glucosamine and fertilizers.
16
However, these models have yet to form a large -scale circular chain.
17
Public -private cooperation can connect and build value chains, then expand successful models.
18
This is how Vietnam's shrimp industry can develop a circular shrimp chain and strengthen its reputation and brand.
19
For a circular economy to go beyond individual models,
20
the entire trend, performing and processing to buy product reuse must be collected.
21
With support policies and investment in technology, buy products can become valuable resources, strengthening the stream industry competitiveness.

About This Lesson

You're practicing English with "Promoting circular economy in the shrimp industry | Vietnam Today" using the Shadowing technique — a method originally developed for professional interpreter training.

Focus on sounding like the speaker — not just repeating words. With 15–30 minutes of daily practice, you'll build real-world speaking confidence.

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
