Fishermen Visit Obama’s Gulf Vacation With Concerns About Seafood Safety w/ Kindra Arnesen Part Two
Part Two
“On Sunday, August 15th, fishing families from across the Gulf Cost will gather in Panama City Beach, Florida, with a message for President Obama: The Gulf of Mexico is still infused with oil and dispersants from the BP disaster, threatening marine life, livelihoods, and the health of the American people.”
“Fishermen do not want to lose our credibility or deliver contaminated seafood to market and make people sick.” – Kathy Birren
“While President Obama and state officials claim that the Gulf is ‘open for business,’ these fishermen say the spraying of dispersants in the Gulf of Mexico is ongoing and they’re concerned that seafood pulled from impacted waters is unsafe for eating.”
“The tissue testing of this seafood is inadequate and testing for the toxic dispersants is non-existent.” – Tracy Kuhns, Louisiana Bayoukeeper
“I think it is crucial for the public to be made aware of the concerns of the commercial fishermen. And if a commercial fisherman who makes his living off of those products doesn’t want to deliver them to the public, the public needs to know why.” – Chris Bryant, Commercial Fisherman

BP’S LEAKING by TomV
Janet said we were all doing BP songs so this is mine. I wrote it this morning and threw it together so it is what is. I didn’t listen to anyone else’s BP song except for Janet’s so if I snagged a phrase or a word,….it was completely innocent and unintentional. We’re kinda having fun with this from a songwriting standpoint but it is not funny in the least as a global ecological, economical or social issue. This is pretty much bad ya’ll.

Show-Me Seafood (MU Extension)
Ray Wright wasnt sure what he would find when he drained a quarter-acre pond at the University of Missouri Bradford Research and Extension Center near Columbia.
Four months earlier, at the beginning of June, the MU research specialist had stocked the pond with 4,000 juvenile freshwater prawns bought from a Texas hatchery. Freshwater prawns are a species of shrimp native to Malaysia, which has a tropical climate very different from that of mid-Missouri.
Summer and fall had been cool in Missouri this year. Raccoons and frogs were using the pond as an all-you-can-eat buffet. How many prawns had survived, and how big were they? Wright wouldnt know until the pond was more than half-empty.
Theres a tremendous amount of risk involved, he said. Corn and beans—Missouri farmers know how to grow them. They know the risks and they know how to manage them.
When it comes to raising seafood in Missouri, however, producers are still learning what works and what doesnt. With prawns, when the temperature goes below 60, youve lost your crop, Wright said. You dont want to learn that after youve invested $10,000. You want someone else to learn that, so you know that when the temperature gets in that range, its time to get the prawns out.
Raising aquatic species for profit is an agricultural endeavor that requires special skills, knowledge and dedication to be successful, said Charles Hicks, aquaculture specialist at Lincoln University. Its critical that potential producers do their homework.
Making that homework a little easier is why MU and Lincoln University are partners in research and extension programming aimed at supporting the development of a thriving aquaculture industry in Missouri.
The focus is on practical, cost-effective techniques for raising species such as prawns, bluegill sunfish and largemouth bass for food markets in the Midwest, said Bob Pierce, MU Extension fisheries and wildlife specialist.
The U.S. imports more than 80 percent of its seafood. At the same time, Americans are increasingly interested in fresh, locally grown food. Can Missouri help meet the demand for domestic fish and shellfish?
The state has more than 300,000 acres of farm ponds, notes Leslie Hearne, an MU graduate student in fisheries and wildlife sciences. Those ponds could become a rich source of protein and profit, she said.
Hearne is doing research at Lincoln Universitys Carver Farm, which has an aquaculture facility that includes more than 20 quarter-acre and tenth-acre ponds as well as indoor tanks for breeding and hatching fingerlings.
Were trying to develop a fast-growing strain of bluegill that can get to market in less than two years, she said. Bluegill, a native sunfish common to Missouri farm ponds, typically takes about three years to grow to a marketable weight of about half a pound.
Researchers also are developing diets and feeding schedules to maximize bluegill growth while minimizing the amount of food they need. According to Pierce, reducing the cost of producing marketable food-grade bluegill could make the fish a competitive local alternative to popular aquaculture species such as tilapia.
Keeping costs down was why Wright took a mostly low-tech approach to his freshwater prawn project. We dont want to spend $10,000-$20,000 on aeration systems and meters even though it might help, because most farms are not going to have that, he said. We want to have something they already have in place.
Wright knew he was cutting it close with his late-September harvest, so he was relieved when prawns started gushing out of the ponds outlet pipe by the dozen. He ended up collecting more than 2,700 prawns, which were packed in ice, shipped to the MU campus and served that night to hundreds of students who had the rare opportunity to enjoy fresh-caught Missouri seafood.
Eric Cartwright, executive chef for MU Campus Dining Services, jumped at the chance to buy Wrights prawns. As a chef and as a food lover, the prospect of getting some fresh prawns made me super-excited, he said. When you get a product that was literally swimming that morning, the fresh flavor you can get from that is hard to describe.
Cartwright isnt the only one excited about Missouri aquaculture.
When we have tours at the farm, it always gets attention, Wright said. Everyones excited about fish. When we ask if they want to see fish production, all the hands go up. That should tell you something.
A freshwater prawn production fact sheet will soon be available from MU Extension and Lincoln University. Information also is available from the USDAs Southern Regional Aquaculture Center at http://aquanic.org/publicat/usda_rac/srac.htm.

Then, towards the end of the Ayutthaya period going on to the Thonburi period, it was separated from Ratchaburi province and was called Mueang Mae Klong.
