>FISH FARMERS AND SCIENTISTS MEET TO PUSH MARINE FISH AQUACULTURE INDUSTRY
>FORWARD

>There is enormous economic potential to farm high-value marine fish species
>such as pompano, snapper, grouper, flounder, cobia, tuna, and others to
>meet
>the public's ever-growing demand for seafood. However, to date the
>industry's progress has been slowed by regulatory problems as well as
>technological barriers. On October 19 - 21, leading researchers in the
>field
>of aquaculture will meet at Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution in Fort
>Pierce, Florida to discuss new research and work that has overcome many of
>those hurdles, and ways to eliminate any bottlenecks that remain.

>"Marine fish aquaculture is just about ready to take off as a large

>thanks to recent breakthroughs in research. Our goal for this conference is
>to bring together researchers and industry from different regions and with
>different specialties to share the knowledge that's been generated and push
>the industry forward," says Megan Davis, director of Harbor Branch's
