Description

The fifth Yellow Perch Funded Project.   Chaired by Jeff Malison

Objectives:

  1.  Continue to improve larval rearing techniques by developing and evaluating starter diets in relation to size at transfer to formulated feeds under selected environmental conditions.

  2.  Continue to improve pond fingerling production through examination of in pond feeding using physical/chemical attractants and improved harvesting strategies for different sized fingerlings from various types and sizes of ponds.

  3.  Continue to develop extension materials and workshops emphasizing techniques coinciding with production events to meet the needs of potential and established perch culturists through on-site presentations at two or more locations in different parts of the region.
