Why U.S.
Aquaculture Matters
Responsible aquaculture reduces harvest pressure on wild fisheries, keeps supply chains local and transparent, and expands access to healthy, nutrient rich fish. The USDA Regional Aquaculture Centers work to support the United States aquaculture industry, helping build resilient food systems, protect wild stocks, and create opportunities for a wide range of local communities.
