Cal Poly Humboldt: Notice to all Sportfish, Baitfish, and Ornamental Fish Farmers in California

From Cal Poly Humboldt:

Are you a Sportfish, Baitfish, or Ornamental Fish Farmer in California? If so, we would love to hear from you! Researchers from Cal Poly Humboldt, Virginia Tech University, and Engle-Stone Aquatics LLC are gathering vital information regarding your farm(s). The information collected will be completely anonymous. This information will be used to provide the public and consumers with critical information regarding the aquaculture industry in California.

Information collected from you, the farmers, will be presented on a website. The purpose of this website will be to educate the public and consumers about the benefits of Californian and domestic aquaculture production. For this website, we will be presenting important facts and figures provided by you, the farmers. We want to showcase the products that you produce and how they contribute significantly to the economies of California and the United States. Funding for this project, including the research and website creation comes from the USDA Western Regional Aquaculture Center.

If you are a Sportfish, Baitfish and Ornamental farmer in California, or if you know of someone that is, please contact us at: aquaculture@humboldt.edu

As researchers, we cannot thank you enough for your participation! The information you provide to us will be instrumental in creating consumers that are better informed. Our hope is that with the information you provide, consumers will increase their purchases of aquaculture products from you and other Californian aquaculture producers.
