Abstract:

Catfish farming is booming in the lower Mississippi River Valley, but how successful would it be in North Carolina? While people in the deep South consider catfish a delicacy, many North Carolinians consider the catfish a trash fish. The primary obstacles to catfish farming in the state are the unavailability of processing facilities and the lack of a steady market.
