A recent assessment by Michigan State University finds while the state is surrounded by the world’s largest freshwater system, more than 60 percent of aquaculture is raised in ponds.
“It’s really more on this farm-scale level and we really could produce a lot more, about 80 percent of our seafood in the U.S. is imported.”
Lauren Jescovitch studied how the aquaculture industry was impacted by the pandemic and was disappointed to learn the state with the largest shoreline in the continental U.S.
