Considerations when strategically developing an innovative aqua farming program, a report of The Oregon Aquaculture Association & The Oregon Aquaculture Advisory Group, 2018, 45 pgs. This document is intended to help those crafting the plan for the State of Oregon’s aqua farming program. To assist in these efforts, the document is divided into four parts: Section I—outlining what some other states have done; Section II—laying the groundwork; Section III—describing possible plan elements; Section IV—presenting selected historical material. The outcome of the work is intended to promote the development of a network of profitable and sustainable aqua businesses across Oregon making a positive contribution to the state’s economy and to the livelihoods of Oregonians.

This document outlines the activities undertaken through the first phase of the Oregon Aquaculture Explorer Project. In June 2019, Business Oregon approved a grant to the Oregon Aquaculture Association to “develop the Oregon Aquaculture Explorer Platform.” The project, with partners from VertueLab and Oregon State University, was implemented from July 2019 through December 2021. Over the course of the project, the two principal outputs were achieved: design and piloting of the Aquaculture Explorer and, second, using this platform, assessing aquacultural opportunities with the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians.
