摘要：To meet the volume requirements of new markets like restaurants and supermarkets, trout growers in the Southern Appalachians are considering forming a cooperative to process and market the fish. The growers say they would commit up to 1,260,519 pounds of trout to a cooperative. That volume will require the cooperative to raise $329,500 for building, equipment, and initial operating capital, and to employ approximately 13 people on a full- or part-time basis. The cooperative's annual net income is projected at $23,955 by the third year.
