Fish Farms Pushing Yellow Perch To Market

Last updated on Friday, December 28, 2007

(ALBANY) - Supporters of Indiana fish farms hope the Midwestern taste for yellow perch can help spur growth in the state’s fledgling industry.

Bell Aquaculture is producing yellow perch for the restaurant market in indoor tanks filled with water pumped from the ground.

It is one of more than 4,000 fish farms in the United States. The farm is about 10 miles northeast of Muncie.
