Legislative findings

Official statutory text

The legislature finds that aquaculture sales and consumption have increased worldwide and that the use of antibiotics or chemicals not approved for use in food-producing animals in the United States is permitted in aquaculture in other countries and that consumers of aquaculture in Louisiana should be provided clear information as to where the aquaculture product originates to protect the health and welfare of Louisiana consumers. The legislature further finds that food-misrepresentation or the passing off of less expensive aquaculture products as pricier aquaculture products to unknowing customers and retailers has become an issue in the marketplace and is a deceitful practice. Consumers and retailers should be informed of the country of origin and species of fish in the marketplace.
