Shrimp farming contributes great export value for the country. When international demand on shrimp products has increased continuously, farmers expanded intensive system of White Leg Shrimp that has leaded to disease outbreak and port rejections due to quality violation. Many farmers are applying VietGAP certification; the remaining farmers still cultivate shrimp without GAP. The study was conducted aiming to clarify the situation of VietGAP in quality and food safety management in 2019 via interview with 100 key shrimp farmers in VietGAP and non-GAP applied systems. Talking briefly to the result, farmers in VietGAP system have good controls quality than farmers in non-GAP system. Several control points need to be improved such as quality of seeds, frequency of sludge removal and pond design. Shrimps produced according to VietGAP had little quality rejection. But low price premium and little certification awarded are still challenges of VietGAP.
