Green crabs can be a big problem for oysters and oyster farmers: preying on juvenile oysters and destroying oyster habitat. However, some people are exploring how the green crab fishery and oyster industry could work together.
This virtual panel and Q&A will tackle green crab’s impact on farmed and wild oysters and innovative collaboration between farmers and crabbers.
Moderated by Patrick McMurray: GreenCrab.org Board Member, Oyster Master Guild Co-Founder, and the World’s Fastest Oyster Shucker
