North Carolina’s Tilapia industry is based on indoor, RAS (Recirculating Aquaculture System) technology. Producers raise this subtropical fish in systems that maintain a clean and healthful environment 24/7, throughtout the year. Our producers annually produce over 1,000,000 lbs with most fish being sold live to ethnic Asian metropolitan markets along the east coast. Farm gate revenues are approximately $2,500,000 for 2018.
