Small Scale, On-Farm Fish Processing

Document format: pdf

Publisher: Southern Regional Aquaculture Center

Creation date: November 1997

Because of the small size (5 to 20 acres) of many catfish farms, these businesses have high production costs compared to more efficient farms of 50 acres or greater located in the leading catfish producing states. To maximize profit potential, retail marketing is suggested. Live sales, fee-fishing, and direct sales of processed fish to restaurants and grocery stores are common retail market opportunities.
