  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Shrimp Farming and Conservation Networks: The Case of East Kalimantan, Indonesia Author: Kusumawati, Rini, Bush, Simon In Indonesia, shrimp pond development and shrimp production expended significantly. There are also signs that this expansion has caused an environmental damaged, especially on the existence on mangrove forest. This extensification or expansion process has been facilitated by the national government through various support programs. Another important factor affecting the shrimp production and trade is the rising demand in EU and US for sustainable marine products, especially shrimp production and related products. The rising environmental awareness in Europe and US about the environmental impact of shrimp ponds in producer countries likely to put pressure on shrimp producing countries such as Indonesia. The "idea" of green shrimp has arrived in the area, but it is not passively adopted and implemented. It is being "negotiated" and translated into local concepts according to local stakeholder goals and strategies. This paper aims to analyze actors goals and strategies and understand what the "reality" of green shrimp trade in the area is. These above processes are illustrated with case study material from Tarakan, East Kalimantan, Indonesia.
