Aquatic Depot


Our first Friday stop on the "See For Yourself" Tour was the Aquatic Depot, a fish genetics and production facility that uses soybean meal for feed. Tilapia production is a growing industry in Mexico, and the Aquatic Depot is a leading provider of fingerlings for other fish farms, so its support of soy protein for feed is important for U.S. soy growers. During the visit we saw the egg collection and development process as well as the tank facilities for tilapia production. Be sure to check out the video on tilapia production below.
