Catfish farming shows growth potential but needs better management
A 1970 ERS survey of 16 South catfish plants finds annual supply instability and processing limits hindering growth. Farm gate earnings average 35 cents per pound with wholesale redress at 86 cents. retail catfish sells around 93 cents to 1.02 dollars. Channel catfish dominate production with 18 months to market. Two pounds of feed yield one pound of catfish, a strong feed-conversion advantage over cattle.
