Seafood is one of the most regulated food sources enjoyed by American families.

Seafood farmers, processors, importers, and retailers follow a slew of regulations to make sure fish and shellfish are safe.  To learn how seafood makes its way from farm or ocean to your plate, visit From Water to Table.

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Fisheries Service scientists, 80 percent of U.S. fisheries are sustainably managed.  Data from the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organization shows the same for 75 percent of global fisheries.  To learn more about your favorite fish - from its sustainability status to the environment it lives in - visit NOAA FishWatch.

The fishing industry is often a family affair.  Generations of fishermen, fish-farmers, processors, importers, and retailers work together to provide healthy, tasty fish. Visit Fishermen and Farmers for special stories from the seafood community.
