2012 NOAA Sea Grant Aquaculture Research
Program - CLOSED.
Depending on the availability of funds, NOAA Sea Grant expects to have approximately $3,200,000 available for a national competition to fund marine aquaculture
research projects for FY 2012. This is part of the overall plan to support the development of environmentally and economically sustainable ocean, coastal,
or Great Lakes aquaculture.
This aquaculture research competition is designed to support the development of environmentally and economically sustainable ocean, coastal, or Great Lakes aquaculture
by funding research, outreach and management. Proposed projects must support the goals stated in Sea Grant's National Strategic Plan (2009-2013) Focus Area of Safe and
Sustainable Seafood Supply: a sustainable supply of safe seafood to meet public demand; a healthy domestic seafood industry that produces, processes, and markets seafood responsibly and efficiently; and informed consumers who understand the importance of ecosystem health and sustainable harvesting practices to the future of our domestic fisheries who appreciate the health benefits of seafood consumption; and who understand how to evaluate the safety of the seafood products they buy.
