The study evaluated a diet for juvenile northern bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus) that is significantly less costly than currently available diets for sunfish, while yielding a growth rate that is at least equal to an industry standard sunfish diet. Such a diet formulation is now available to the NCR as the result of a recently funded North Central Regional Aquaculture Center (NCRAC) project.</p>application/pdfenarticleisulib-bepress-aws-west10373631140farms_reports/48AgricultureNatural Resources Management and PolicyRFR A1133Natural Resource Ecology and Management
