Description:One of the major efforts during the first period of Sea Grant at Virginia Tech was to define the problems of the seafood industry in Virginia. Once de fined, then solutions could be searched for. Those problems, in summary, were identified as: 1. deterioration of the ecological system in the Chesapeake Bay; 2. international competition; 3. competition between commercial sea food industry, sports fishermen, and industrial and military interests; 4. inefficiency and obsolescence; 5. cash flow problems; and 6. lack of organizational unity. During the first grant period, these problems were attacked from a number of directions. During the second period, that of this report, several projects were continued and new ones were initiated. Four principal workers -- food technologist, mechanical engineer, business management specialist, and extension agent -- planned, organized, and carried out these projects, some times working with other Sea Grant personnel or others in the university community, and sometimes working individually.
