market outlook, Erkins indicates that (1) product competition 

 comes from fish in general, (2) fish market expansion is on the 

 basis of population rather than per-capita-consumption growth, 

 but population growth rates have slowed, (3) fish prices have 

 advanced considerably in the past 10 years, but this is not true 

 for catfish and trout, and (4) with a good marketing program, 

 output of processed trout could reach 25 million pounds by 1980.

Georgia researchers look at trout-catfish rotation. 

 Fish Farming Ind. 3(5): 12-13. 



Information is given on a study by E. Evan Brown, T. K. Hill, 

 and J. L. Chesness on trout only in South Georgia where winter 

 temperatures are usually suitable for trout, and where summer 

 weather is suitable for catfish growth, allowing the possibility 

 of two crops. Weather records suggest fewer than 120 days with 

 water temperatures below the critical 70 degrees F., and the 

 winter, 1971-72, growing effort lasted 105 days. Initial cost, 

 annual cost, annual return, computational assumption, feed 

 conversion, production method, average and actual market price 

 (involving fishout lake, processor, and local markets) data are 

 provided.
