This paper presents information on United States and Japanese 



aquaculture, including a brief discussion of species, prices, 



feed conversion, industry growth, and aquaculture' s importance as 



a protein supplier. In Japan, the total harvest of cultured 



marine species increased by 742% from 1950, but the 1966 iiarvest 



amounted to less than 6% of Japan's total seafood sales. 



Freshwater fish culture in the United States is reviewed. For 



catfish, the three methods of production are explained (ponds, 



raceways, and cages) and data are given on the production 



percentages of each method.

Perspective. Univ. R.I., New Engl. Mar. Resour. Inform. Progr., 



pp. 57-70. 



Although Florida was the first state to adopt laws authorizing 



aquaculture's use of the water column, legal problems were not 



fully appreciated at the time of adoption. Some of the problems 



encountered with the guidelines provided by the Florida State 



Cabinet under the 1969 statute are discussed. They relate to the 



effect of aquaculture on navigation, the adeguacy of public 



access and navigational safety, the effect of aquaculture law and 



upland ownership, the need for stronger antipollution protection, 



the failure of aquaculture law to deal with conflicting 



interests, the inadequate provision for onshore installations, 



the State indecision about competitive biddinq, and legal limi-
