Abstract
Objectives and Purpose of Study: The primary objective of this project is to develop information about the economic contributions of the Aquacultural Suppliers of Recreational Fisheries (ASRF) industry in the western United States. Sampling frames were developed for the ASRF industry, their direct customers, and for ASRF-induced recreational anglers in the western United States. Using these sampling frames, expenditure and sales data were collected from the three populations. The collected data were integrated into input-output models in order to estimate the total economic contribution of the ASRF industry in the western United States.
