NCRAC recently formulated a strategic plan to assist the Center to more effectively identify and implement research and extension programs to enhance benefits to the NCR (NCRAC 1998).

NCRAC's mission will be accomplished by: Developing transferable technology enabling producers to be profitable; Disseminating relevant educational materials to achieve profitable margins of operation; Providing demonstrations and regular aquaculture extension programs; Engaging in research partnerships among industry, universities, and public agencies; and Fostering open dialogue and networking throughout the North Central aquaculture community.
