Dataset on India’s imports of Penaeus vannamei brooders from the United States

Dataset includes the imports of SPF P. vannamei brooders from the United States and other (non-U.S.) countries to India over a period of 16 years. The historical dataset comprises of the quantity of brooders imported by India from various sources. Shrimp stocks supplied from empanelled broodstock centers, including Shrimp Improvement Systems (Florida), Shrimp Improvement Systems (Hawaii), American Penaeid (Florida), BenchMark Genetics (Florida), Syaqua Pvt. Ltd. (Florida), Kona Bay Marine Resources (Hawaii), Molokkai Broodstock Company (Florida), Sea Products (later rebranded as Blue Genetics, Texas), and the Oceanic Institute (Hawaii), are categorized under imports from the USA. In contrast, stocks supplied by Shrimp Improvement Systems (Singapore), Blue Genetics (Mexico), Global Gen (Indonesia), Vannamei 101 (Thailand), Syaqua Siam (Thailand), and CP Foods Pvt. Ltd. (Thailand) fall under imports from other countries. Notably, imports from Southeast Asian countries have been banned in India since 2013. hence, the data from these regions (specifically Thailand-based suppliers) are only included for the years 2009 to 2013. Data was directly obtained from the AQF, established by the Marine Products Export Development Authority (MPEDA) under the Government of India.

本数据集涵盖16年间印度从美国及其他（非美国）国家进口无特定病原（Specific Pathogen Free，SPF）凡纳滨对虾（P. vannamei）亲虾的贸易数据。该历史数据集收录了印度从各来源渠道进口的亲虾数量。由列入官方认可名录的亲虾繁育中心供应的虾类种质，包括美国佛罗里达州的Shrimp Improvement Systems、夏威夷州的Shrimp Improvement Systems、佛罗里达州的American Penaeid、佛罗里达州的BenchMark Genetics、佛罗里达州的Syaqua Pvt. Ltd.、夏威夷州的Kona Bay Marine Resources、佛罗里达州的Molokkai Broodstock Company、德克萨斯州的Sea Products（后更名为Blue Genetics）以及夏威夷州的Oceanic Institute，均被划归为美国进口种质。与之相对，由新加坡Shrimp Improvement Systems、墨西哥Blue Genetics、印度尼西亚Global Gen、泰国Vannamei 101、泰国Syaqua Siam以及泰国CP Foods Pvt. Ltd.供应的种质，则被归类为非美国国家进口种质。值得注意的是，印度自2013年起已禁止从东南亚国家进口此类种质，因此来自上述地区（特指泰国供应商）的相关数据仅纳入2009至2013年的统计范围。本数据集直接来源于印度政府海洋产品出口发展局（Marine Products Export Development Authority, MPEDA）设立的水产检疫设施（Aquaculture Quarantine Facility, AQF）。
