Press Herald quotes Eddy in article on sustainable aquaculture in Maine
Steve Eddy, a biologist with the Center for Cooperative Aquaculture Research at the University of Maine, spoke with the Portland Press Herald for the article, “Farmed salmon from Maine now comes with more sustainability.” Modern Maine salmon farmers practice something similar to crop rotation, according to the article. Eddy said all permitted farm sites are selected to ensure adequate flushing (when the waves and currents disperse waste from fish pens) when the pens are full of salmon, the article states.
