NAICS Code 112512-02 Description (8-Digit)

Crawfish Farms is a subdivision of the Shellfish Farming industry, which involves the cultivation and harvesting of aquatic invertebrates for human consumption. Specifically, Crawfish Farms focus on the breeding and raising of freshwater crustaceans known as crawfish or crayfish. These farms typically operate in warm, shallow bodies of water such as ponds or rice fields, where crawfish can thrive in a controlled environment. Crawfish Farms require a significant amount of expertise and attention to detail in order to maintain a healthy and productive population of crawfish. Farmers must carefully monitor water quality, temperature, and feeding schedules to ensure optimal growth and survival rates. Additionally, they must be knowledgeable about the various diseases and parasites that can affect crawfish and take appropriate measures to prevent or treat them.
