Catfish lead in adding nutritious meat to family tables
Washington AP reports the Agriculture Department says fish farming adds millions of pounds of meat annually with catfish at the forefront. Aquaculture expands farm income in states like Mississippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana as farmers shift from trout to catfish. Last year produced over 100 million pounds, including 70 million catfish and 30 million trout. Catfish range from small to river monsters up to 100 pounds.
