PREVIEW

AQUACULTURE: Will it rise to its potential to feed the world?
by George S Lockwood

Aquaculture is the most environmentally sustainable means to feed the
population boom that threatens the planet. Will government allow it to do this
critically important job?

George Lockwood founded Monterey Abalone Farms in 1972 that eventually
became Ocean Farms of Hawaii. It produced abalone, salmon, sea urchins and
oysters in a novel system using deep ocean water pumped into onshore tanks
and ponds. Over the many years he has been interested in public policy relative
to aquaculture development.

Lockwood is a former president of the World Aquaculture Society and a founder
and former president of the California Aquaculture Association. He was a major
contributor to the National Aquaculture Act of 1980 and the California
Aquaculture Act of 1982. Since 2005, he has served as Chair of the
Aquaculture Working Group that is advising the USDA with the development of
organic aquaculture standards.

Through this book he seeks to make domestic aquaculture a robust industry
that substantially contributes to our national economy while producing the most
environmentally sustainable and the healthiest forms of meat protein.
