THE FUTURE OF FISH FARMING

The final episode of our Project Snook video series is about the future of Mote Aquaculture Research Park and fish farming in America. We get to meet the Vice President of Fisheries and Aquaculture for Mote Marine, Dr. Ken Leber PhD. He has fascinating knowledge of the fish industry in our country. He states, "84% of the seafood we eat in this country is imported." He believes aquaculture is the future. You can control the process. You have a secure process with control over the outcomes. If we don't begin to grow our food supply in this country, who knows what might happen. DONATE NOW

MEET MOTE AQUACULTURE PARK

Mote Aquaculture Park

This is the first of a 8-part series about Project Snook. Capt Blair Wiggins, host of Addictive Fishing TV, introduces us to the Mote Marine Aquaculture Research Team in Sarasota, Florida. These dedicated scientists and biologists are using cutting edge technologies to raise snook in captivity and help the diminished snook population here in Florida. When you make a donation to Project Snook, your money is going to support the research that helps protect our fisheries. They spawn snook, redfish, pompano and sturgeon here at this facility and they even grow mangroves and sea grass to be planted back into the environment.
