Thank you for your interest in aquaculture, I get many requests from people just like you who are looking for alternative ways to farm. There is a lot of information available to start your research of aquaculture. I can snail mail you a starter pack or if you have Internet access, you can check out my web page and through its links, get all the aquaculture information you would want for FREE! Just go to www.ag.ohio-state.edu/~prec and click on programs, aquaculture. Here you will find some order forms for our Factsheets and videos or sites for free downloadable aquaculture information. You may also call me at 1-800-297-2072 when you need more information. You can send me your name to be added to our mailing lists for announcements of future workshops. Your county extension agent should also have some information for you.
