THE loss of marine life in the Gulf of Mexico after the disastrous BP oil spill has become a business bonanza for Indian prawn and shrimp farms. Seafood exports to the US have seen an unexpected growth in the first five months of the current fiscal.

Seafood shipped to the US has seen a 60% increase in the April to August period this year.
