      And making the mistake of telling everyone. If everyone gets into it, it will stop being profitable. Though everyone will have cheap shrimp, so it’s not a complete loss.

      I wonder how much it costs to maintain the farm and if it’s worthwhile for small scale production for personal and friends/family.

        No? He’s acquiring capital (land, shrimp farm equipment, shromps) and using his labor to create something (more shromps) and selling his product for a profit.

        He owns the property, takes the investment risk, and keeps the profits. In theory he’s competing in a market with other shrimp sellers but like I said from the sound of it the market is pretty thin so he gets to sell for a huge profit.
