Trout farmers who must let their facilities sit empty for several years because of disease outbreaks could rotate instead to whitefish, for example. Also, whitefish production could become more attractive if trout prices fall due to rising imports. Whitefish need cold water like trout but take longer to reach a marketable weight. They're found in the wild, but pollution and heavy commercial fishing in the '40s and '50s dramatically cut their populations. Research by Konrad Dabrowski , School of Natural Resources.
