<p class="MsoNormal">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
<i>farm-raised versus wild-caught</i> debate, results suggest that concerns about environmentally responsible production is currently more important than
<i>wild-caught</i> labels. Consumers also placed seafood quality attributes above prices paid.
