- Emerging Aquaculture - Prawns and Shrimp
- The University of Georgia with the Georgia Department of Industry, Trade and Tourism are looking at ways to produce fresh and saltwater shrimp. A number of producers in Georgia attempted to raise the freshwater prawn in 1999 and 2000. They installed nursery systems and ponds to grow the prawns for the food sized market. Some successes as well as failures occurred as these producers used various adaptations of recommended methods for prawn production.

- Ocean Farming: An Emerging Agribusiness?
- Ocean farming has the potential to become the most productive means of raising animals for food. We can tap this potential by applying technologies such as direct fertilization of the ocean. We can also use more traditional production systems, such as confining fish in feed lots or net-pens, technologies that have proven themselves very efficient for raising tuna, salmon, and many other species in both warm and cold climates.
