Also known as mariculture, the industry focuses on the cultivation of plants and animals that live in saltwater.<\/p>\n<p>Aquaculture accounts for half of seafood consumed worldwide. Although mariculture now plays a relatively small role in most local economies in North Carolina, it has potential to become an economic driver in the state\u2019s coastal communities.<\/p>\n<p>We developed this video to be part of a suite of education resources that high school science and agriculture teachers can use to expose their students to mariculture science and career possibilities.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Careers in Mariculture \u2014\u00a0from North Carolina Sea Grant\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PyOBKBybvPc?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/ncseagrant.ncsu.edu\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>There are lots of jobs to choose from. Fish farms don\u2019t just rely on farmers. They need technicians, managers and entrepreneurs to succeed. Distributors, chefs and scientists also play important roles in moving seafood from the water to your plate. The video, produced and filmed by Baxter Miller and Ryan Stancil, provides a glimpse into these different career paths.<\/p>\n<p>Shellfish grower Ryan Bethea is one of many featured voices. \u201cI would have never thought I would be into oyster farming,\u201d he says in the film. \u201cI wanted to be an attorney for a long time. I was bartending and teaching before this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sea Grant also is working with local educators to develop mariculture lesson plans and a mobile aquaculture laboratory.
