Autor

Bart Reid is a marine biologist and entrepreneur with over forty years' experience in all types of aquaculture, ranging from shrimp to fish to algae. He holds BS and MS degrees from Texas A&M University. In the 1980s he helped develop the hatchery techniques for breeding redfish and speckled trout that are used by the state hatcheries to restock bays and waterways in the Gulf Coast region. After many years in the shrimp farming business, he is now involved in algae culture for the production of both nutraceuticals and bioplastics. Bart has been awarded two patents: one for macro algae production and one for puncture resistant materials. He is an avid hunter and fisherman and divides his time between the Trans-Pecos area and the coast of Port Mansfield, Texas.
