What Is Aquaculture?
Aquaculture is the practice of raising and harvesting of animals and plants in all kinds of aquatic settings. It plays a key role in sustaining U.S. seafood production while also creating stable, year-round jobs. It also contributes significantly to restoring habitats, supporting protected species, and strengthening coastal resilience.
