Value-Added Product Ideas For Northeast Aquaculture

This publication is designed to enhance market positioning by aquaculturists in the New York and Mid-Atlantic region through value-added products. The product and marketing ideas included were generated through review or seafood trade journals and personal interviews with seafood firms at the Boston Seafood Show, New York Restaurant Show, and SeaFare in Miami. The information is organized according to leading consumer trends as they apply to key species cultured in the region: hard clams, mussels, scallops, soft- shelled crabs, salmon, trout, tilapia, and hybrid striped bass.
