Aquaculture Program and Experimental Hatchery


The UM Rosenstiel School Aquaculture Program is supported by an innovative and progressive research and development program in sustainable aquaculture focusing on advanced, emerging technologies and management strategies. R&D priority topics are innovative hatchery technology and ecologically sound and economically efficient growout methods such as offshore aquaculture and recirculating systems.

Directed by Daniel Benetti, Ph.D., the program focuses on scientific, technological, environmental, management, social, economical, legal, and political aspects of sustainable aquaculture.  A state-of-the-art marine hatchery including maturation, live feeds, larval rearing and nursery systems as well as a world-class nutrition lab are available for conducting R&D projects, technology development and transfer and training.
