Dr. James Rakocy is the Director of the University of the Virgin Islands (UVI) Agricultural Experiment Station and a Research Professor of Aquaculture. He obtained his Ph.D. in aquaculture from Auburn University in 1980 and has been at UVI since then. His research has concentrated on the development of production systems for tilapia that conserve and reuse water and recycle nutrients. He and his colleagues have developed aquaponic and biofloc systems, which intensify production and utilize dissolved nutrients for hydroponic vegetable production and solid organic waste for the production of field crops. Since 1999 the UVI Aquaculture program has offered an International Course on Aquaponics and Tilapia Aquaculture. The course has attracted 362 participants from 37 states, four U.S. territories, and 44 other countries and foreign territories.
