13.1.1 Introduction
As most of the ornamental fish produced in Southeast Asia are destined for export, the fish must not only be attractive but also robust to withstand long air transportation. For consignments from Asia to USA, shipping may cost more than the fish in the consignment. Hence modern packaging technology to increase fish loading density and improve post – shipment survival assumes importance. The exporters are responsible for post – shipment survival of fishes. Warranty is given to customers by exporters that the death of fish after 7 days of arrival should not exceed more than 5%. If it exceeds 5%,losses will be compensated by the exporters. |
