Trout farm policy
He did not think acclimatisation societies and angling clubs would have opposed trout farming had the farms been kept to estuarine waters, the president of the North Canterbury Acclimatisation Society (Mr N. Voyce) told the society’s council last evening. He said that the society had fought trout farms very strongly, although not quite as successfully as it had hoped.
The South Island Council of Acclimatisation Societies had not been opposed to trout farming for export, but it had opposed farming fot the local market, Mr Voyce said.
The council agreed that a statement on the society’s attitude to trout farming should be prepared.
