Latest Achievements
Cal Poly Humboldt students from the Environmental Science & Management (ESM) major Mary Mangubat, Erik Meusborn, and Andrew Todd are co-authors on a recent publication in the Journal Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems. The publication is titled Fisheries of the middle: building collaborations between seafood and agriculture to revitalize and enhance mid-scale food production. The research began as an undergraduate research project in the ESM Planning & Policy capstone class where students were exploring common challenges among the seafood and agriculture systems in our local region -- working for community clients Ashley Vellis (Ashely's Seafood) and Megan Kenney (North Coast Growers' Association). It then evolved to include the ideas and voices of many other scholars and practitioners working in seafood and ag systems. The piece argues for the development and sustenance of "middle scale" seafood systems in addition to those focused on smaller-scale or direct-marketing strategies.
