Designing and developing a Sea cage systems for lobster aquaculture
Lead Participant:
THE NATIONAL LOBSTER HATCHERY
Abstract
Land based production of marketable sized lobsters is not currently feasible in the UK, thus cage culture systems in estuarine and coastal conditions could provide a sustainable alternative to providing a valuable human protein source at minimal unit cost of production. This project aims use marine engeneering expertise to desin and develop a rearing systems specifically for lobsters which enables more streamlined deployment, assessment and maintenance.
