| Abstract | The wastage of prawns (Penaeidae) due to spoilage in processing factories accounted for about 0-12% in 1974, 0-35% in 1975, 0-3% in 1976 and 0-4% in 1977. Spoilage increases with the time lag between catching and processing and is also due to defective icing. The paper discusses the counts of whole prawns required for obtaining meat of specified size grades. |
