The goal of this project was to evaluate the economic viability of alternative postharvest processing systems for raw oyster products which would be in compliance with proposed federal regulations and satisfy market constraints imposed by individual states.
Publications on Postharvest Processing Systems,1999 - 2007. The goal of this project was to evaluate the economic viability of alternative postharvest processing systems for raw oyster products which would be in compliance with proposed federal regulations and satisfy market constraints imposed by individual states.
Publications on Consumer Preferences for Oysters, 1999 - 2007. Consumer attitudes and preferences toward raw and postharvest
