Undercurrent News visited Camposol's shrimp operations near Tumbes in northern Peru in the week of the Expoalimentaria food show in Lima that took place between Sept. 28-30.

Camposol is undergoing a major expansion to its intensive farming model, which already accounts for more than 60% of the Peruvian company's shrimp exports. The visit also included a tour of the new laboratory and nursery, where larvae production has been expanded to about 2 billion a year from 1.3 billion before.
