Presentation Topic:
Seafood Preferences

Presentation Title:
Changes in Choice of Seafood: Emerging Opportunities

Presenter:
Dr. Simone Valle de Souza

Presentation Description:
Searching for opportunities for the US aquaculture industry, we surveyed 1,400 Americans about their seafood consumption habits. The study covered an extensive list of sixteen species of fish, including species which are farmed or caught in the North Central Region (NCR), as well as shellfish, mollusks, seaweed, and caviar. Results reiterate the broad consensus of a strong growth in domestic demand for seafood and points out to opportunities, especially for the Midwest fish producers with rainbow trout leading the list of most desirable species. In this study, 88% of consumers purchased seafood, an 18% increase from 2011 and a steep increase of 6% from just the previous year, mostly driven by the younger generations. Regarding the long-standing farm-raised versus wild-caught debate, results suggest that concerns about environmentally responsible production is currently more important than wild-caught labels. Consumers also placed seafood quality attributes above prices paid.
