Abstract
  • U. S. agriculture is at a crossroads. The value of traditional agricultural exports has fallen while imports have increased. Concerns about the environmental impacts of current agricultural practices threaten profitability. As O'Connell (1989) pointed out in Choices , one answer to U. S. farm problems might be found in the "development of nontraditional farm products." This diversification will probably require "joint efforts among government, academia, and industry." In recent years, it has been recognized that aquaculture was a natural part of agriculture, and research funding for the development of a commercially viable aquaculture industry has increased. Research has focused, however, on the culture of fish and shellfish. The production of algae and the development of algal-derived products have the potential to become an increasingly important part of the agricultural sector and should be actively pursued.
