| The purpose of this study was to present a model of export performance development of farmed shrimp in Iran. The research method is qualitative and is based on Grounded Theory. Theoretical sampling was performed using snowball technique based on which, 16 interviews were conducted with the scientific and practical experts of the Iranian shrimp industry (Fisheries Organization managers, Iran's Aquaculture Production and Trade Union and the top companies in the field of shrimp export). Results of data analysis of the interviews through open, axial and selective coding process using Atlas ti. software has led to the surface of the export performance model of Iranian farmed shrimp, based on which, Causal Conditions, Core Phenomenon, Strategies, Contextual Factors, Intervening Conditions, and Consequences were identified. In total, 17 main categories, 56 sub-categories, and 138 concepts fall into six axial categories. The researcher has reached a theoretical saturation in regard to all the concepts in question. Also, in later stages, by reviewing the concepts and presenting the model to the experts’ for the second and third times, the acceptability of the model was assured. As a result, components, indicators, and areas influencing the central phenomenon of "export performance of farmed shrimp" are identified and strategies are proposed to reach the expected results and outcomes. |
