Donating Fish to Local Farmer in Turner's Station KY

Author: Jeffrey Warner

Planning Unit: KSU Aquaculture

Major Program: Aquaculture

Outcome: Initial Outcome

On January 31st, 2022, I and an Aquaculture Grad Student (Jasmine Iniguez), delivered donated Super-male Tilapia (YY sex chromosomes), in effort to work with  Flying Fish Lakes,(Owned by David Lazar and Jimmy is the manager) to get valuable data. These tilapia will be used as brood stock for their tilapia production. In return Flying Fish Lakes will give us useful marketing data on the offspring produced. Data like weight, length, age, number produced, sex ratio, and marketing price when sold. Partnerships like these are fundamental to combine the Research and extension efforts in Kentucky.
