A Message from Hatchery International

Water is the most important resource in a fish hatchery. Thoughtful and efficient use of this natural resource not only ensures production for many more years to come, but it safeguards the health and welfare of the fish stock. Host Ben Normand continues Hatchery International‘s four-part series on sustainability with a panel discussion on the best practices for water conservation.
