IMTA - Multi-trophic sea farming can better utilize the 3-dimensional space
at a farm. It utilizes the bottom, mid - column and surface areas of a site.
The lower trophic species such as shellfish and seaweed provide
ecosystem services through nutrient extraction from the fish in culture
and from the environment. This reduces Nitrogen input and provides
additional income to the farmer by growing and selling multiple species
from a farm.

Dr. Michael Chambers has been advancing open ocean farming technologies for over 30 years in the US and Abroad. In the US, he has managed submerged cage culture projects in the Gulf of Mexico, Hawaii and the North
Atlantic. More recently, he has been developing and training fishermen on small scale, integrated multi-trophic aquaculture of steelhead trout, blue mussels, and sugar kelp on floating platforms. Additional effort at the
University of New Hampshire includes development of novel submerged mussel, seaweed and sea scallop techniques that can minimize potential entanglement of marine creatures.
