Note(s):
The production and value of aquaculture includes the amount and value
produced on sites and excludes hatcheries or processing. Shellfish also includes
some wild production. The data, collected from each of the provincial departments
responsible for aquaculture, are considered accurate and reliable. The data
will continue to be collected and released in the year following the reference
year.
