Bangladesh is one of the most promising countries in the production and export of bagda and lobster. The country has more than 275,000 hectares of fresh and brackish water enclosures suitable for shrimp farming along the vast coastal area. Besides, there are numerous ponds, paddy fields and natural reservoirs throughout the country where freshwater lobsters can be produced.
