ITALY 



Data on shrimp production in Italy are not available, but it 

 is believed that Italian production and consumption of shrimp is very- 

 small. The local population consumes in the fresh form virtually all 

 the shrimp taken in domestic waters. The demand for processed shrimp 

 comes from the tourist trade and is met by imports. Italian foreign 

 trade statistics do not show shrimp separately.
