Finger Lakes Fish Inc., a new land-based salmon farming operation in Auburn, New York, expects to deliver its first batch of fish as soon as mid-August, Phil Gibson, a board member and the company’s marketing advisor, told IntraFish.
The farm is raising coho salmon in a closed, recirculating aquaculture system (RAS). The company’s initial production is expected to be around 180,000 pounds, or 80 metric tons, but, when complete, the facility has capacity to produce 500 metric tons, said Gibson.
