  • Stacked fish boxes on pier head at Fionnphort, Isle of Mull, Scotland. The names of different Scottish fisheries companies are written on the ends of each box that are in bright colours. The aquaculture industry in the Western Isles had its origins in trout and shellfish farming trails in the 1970s. Looking ahead, the best prospects for viable farming of shellfish may be seabed culture of higher value species such as scallops and, in the longer term, crustaceans such as lobster. Extensive cultivation on the seabed is potentially more cost-effective.
