The rural poor in Bangladesh typically lack access to information vital to their lives and livelihoods. The information could be disseminated via web, mobile app, Internet of Things, and ubiquitous networks, etc. The mobile is widely used in many countries for the fish farming. Though frozen food is one of the most important export products in Bangladesh which contains more than 80% of shrimp. The most shrimp cultivation area is the southern part in Bangladesh. Shrimp farming is pressurized by lack of proper information on diseases identification and its management. Mobile app is considered as information provider. But it is necessary to find out the system requirement specification to provide required information for the farmers. The survey conducted in Shyamnagar, Satkhira district of Bangladesh and total 40 female respondents were involved in interview. The research tried to find out the common problems and requirements that focused mobile-app development. It was found that disease (82.86%) and water quality (17.14%) is common problem. Again, the most common disease was White Spot Syndrome Virus and Yellow Head Virus Disease followed by Black Gill disease. The research found it would be better developing voice-based mobile apps with local language.
