The University of Hawaii (UH), through its Center for Tropical and Subtropical Aquaculture (CTSA), has been awarded a $933,019 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) under the Grants for Agricultural Research, Special Research Grants program (CFDA 10.200). This 4-year grant, effective from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2028, will enable CTSA to develop and support research and extension activities aimed at transferring new and adapted aquaculture technologies to the industry in Hawaii and the American Insular Pacific. The project will utilize a region-wide, multi-institutional approach to establish essential elements for aquaculture development and tackle industry challenges. Annually, CTSA funds approximately six projects through a panel review process to ensure scientific rigor and economic impact for local aquaculture producers.
