Kingfish Maine is harvesting its first Dutch yellowtail, with a limited release of the first sustainable Dutch yellowtail to be produced in the U.S., the company announced. Kingfish Maine is currently operating at the Center for Cooperative Aquaculture Research in Franklin as it prepares for construction on a recirculating aquaculture system facility in Jonesport. “We have worked three long years to arrive at this point: harvesting our first Dutch yellowtail from Maine and completing all our permits for our land-based Jonesport facility,” Kingfish Maine Operations Manager Megan Sorby said.
