CCE Fisheries, together with NY Ag and Markets and New York Sea Grant, recently began investigating the feasibility of expanding seafood processing on Long Island to support our commercial wild-caught fisheries and marine growers. During this project, CCE researched capacity, capital investment, and the availability of processing equipment, which can help automate the processing of NY's largest fisheries and better utilize underutilized species caught in the state. Our goal was to outline how and in what way additional processing could better meet the needs of the seafood industry.
