Aquaculture is a unique industry within the farming community. Similar to the agriculture industry, aquaculture is a controlled process of cultivating aquatic organisms — instead of plants or animals. According to the Global Aquaculture Alliance, by 2030, 62 percent of all seafood produced for human consumption will come from aquaculture. 

Arkansas Farm Bureau Federation said, “It’s hatching season at I F Anderson Farms Inc. in Lonoke, Arkansas, the largest fish hatchery in the world. During a six-week period in April and May, they hatch all the fish that are raised for the entire year, totaling more than one billion fish.”
