摘要

To help assess ways to strengthen U.S. aquaculture, the Office of TechnologyAssessment (OTA) has sponsored a five-part study of aquaculture to: (1) review data and literature on the current state scientific understanding and technological development in aquacultural production in the United States; (2) identify promising new and emerging technologies with potential to influence U.S. aquacultural development; (3) identify new approaches from case studies of aquacultural production systems and policy structures in select foreign countries; (4) assess current and potential roles of federal, state, and private organizations in the development and implementation of technologies; and (5) develop policy options for Congress. This paper represents part 3 of the above outline of the study, identification of new approaches from case studies of aquacultural production systems and policy structures in select foreign countries and their relevance to the United States.
