We just pump the water in. Let it slow down and it starts to break down the carbon that is there. It creates algae, algae create bugs, and then we pump that right back to the river to feed the fish.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, 12 farmers are growing bugs on about 50,000 acres in the Sacramento area. That's about 70 pounds of bugs per acre.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group is figuring out the details about exactly how to get that fish food back into the river on a large scale. They hope to ramp up the project with as many rice farms as possible in the future — there are more than 500,000 acres of managed floodplains in the Sacramento Valley alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Cornwell says kinks still need to be worked out. \"I think for the farmer, it's more of how effectively can we get food to the fish,\" he says. \"We've got to have all the processes figured out to make it easy for everyone to implement,\" such as resolving complications with irrigation pumps and canals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carson Jeffres — an aquatic biologist with UC Davis — and Katz published a study last year that suggests that, when farmers and conservationists work together, there could be more fish in California Rivers. He thinks projects like this could help eliminate the popular farms versus fish argument.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As opposed to standing with our heads in the sand, this is getting us to a place where we can have real impact and change over time,\" says Jeffres, who adds that the project could later be implemented in other rivers like the San Joaquin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back on the rice farm, Cornwell prepares to release the bug-rich water back into the Sacramento River through a system of pumps and canals. \"This water's been out here for right at three weeks right now,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Cornwell, who's farmed in the region for more than a decade, this science-farm partnership costs him about $45 per acre.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're stepping out of our comfort zone,\" he says. \"As this grows people will see what we are doing, and we will start developing trust among neighbors — and then this program is just going to take off on its own.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says the minimal cost is worth it to save fish and to make sure the acreage is around for future generations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story comes to us from member station \u003c/em>\u003ca href=\"http://www.capradio.org/\">\u003cem>Capital Public Radio\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003cem> in Sacramento.\u003c/em> \u003cem>Copyright 2018 \u003ca href=\"http://www.capradio.org\">Capital Public Radio\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Insect-rich floodplain water once supported the threatened fish, but it has been diverted.

That's about 70 pounds of bugs per acre.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group is figuring out the details about exactly how to get that fish food back into the river on a large scale.

Still, Chinook salmon – the only salmon species that is commercially fished and marketed in California – are not doing well, either. The report says six of California's eight genetically distinct Chinook populations are likely to disappear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While hundreds of thousands of Chinook still spawn in California in a productive year, these prized fish are mostly the products of hatcheries that fertilize salmon eggs in tanks and release babies into the wild at several months of age. According to the authors, this life-support system, though good for fishermen in the short term, is bad for wild, self-sustaining runs of salmon and steelhead. That's because the hatchery fish often spawn with wild fish, weakening gene lines and blurring the genetic distinctions between different populations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California's salmon are not necessarily all goners. The authors suggest restoring riverside floodplains and coastal marshes, where young fish find abundant food. They also recommend focusing conservation efforts on streams that arise from mountain springs. Such spring-fed creeks will likely remain cold even as the planet warms, and they might be the only places for salmon to spawn in the future. Removing dams also could allow salmon access to cold-water tributaries, the authors say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During a media teleconference call on Tuesday, California Trout's executive director Curtis Knight said native salmon might still be a part of California's culture, economy and diet in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We do still have time, and we are optimistic that with some effort, we can have a future that involves these fish,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003cem>Copyright 2017 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Climate change, dams and agriculture are threatening Chinook salmon, the iconic fish at the core of the state's fishing industry, a report predicts.

Still, Chinook salmon – the only salmon species that is commercially fished and marketed in California – are not doing well, either. The report says six of California's eight genetically distinct Chinook populations are likely to disappear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While hundreds of thousands of Chinook still spawn in California in a productive year, these prized fish are mostly the products of hatcheries that fertilize salmon eggs in tanks and release babies into the wild at several months of age. According to the authors, this life-support system, though good for fishermen in the short term, is bad for wild, self-sustaining runs of salmon and steelhead. That's because the hatchery fish often spawn with wild fish, weakening gene lines and blurring the genetic distinctions between different populations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California's salmon are not necessarily all goners. The authors suggest restoring riverside floodplains and coastal marshes, where young fish find abundant food. They also recommend focusing conservation efforts on streams that arise from mountain springs.

If they’re secret, how are we to know if the FDA is going to maintain adequate scientific rigor for assessing environmental risks,” Kapuscinski said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There may indeed be other GE animals in the pipeline. For example, research is also apparently underway for a \u003ca href=\"http://www.ars.usda.gov/research/projects/projects.htm?accn_no=425211\">genetically engineered pig\u003c/a>.

In addition, the fish “produced for food in Panama will be an all-female, reproductively sterile population.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, Hanson points to inadequacies in the food safety review process.

In the case of the AquaBounty GE salmon, the process was made public, but “that doesn’t mean others will be,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The concern is about future applications. If they’re secret, how are we to know if the FDA is going to maintain adequate scientific rigor for assessing environmental risks,” Kapuscinski said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There may indeed be other GE animals in the pipeline. For example, research is also apparently underway for a \u003ca href=\"http://www.ars.usda.gov/research/projects/projects.htm?accn_no=425211\">genetically engineered pig\u003c/a>. In that case, scientists hope to reduce the animal’s odor and alter its taste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kapuscinski and colleagues have submitted extensive comments to the FDA pointing out environmental concerns, including potential gaps in information about how the GE salmon will be kept contained in Panama. \u003ca href=\"http://www.fda.gov/AnimalVeterinary/DevelopmentApprovalProcess/GeneticEngineering/GeneticallyEngineeredAnimals/ucm473238.htm\">According to the FDA\u003c/a>, both Canadian and Panamanian facilities have \u003ca href=\"http://www.fda.gov/AnimalVeterinary/DevelopmentApprovalProcess/GeneticEngineering/GeneticallyEngineeredAnimals/ucm473238.htm\">numerous measures\u003c/a> to prevent eggs or fish from escaping. In addition, the fish “produced for food in Panama will be an all-female, reproductively sterile population.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, Hanson points to inadequacies in the food safety review process. These include concerns about the \u003ca href=\"http://www.centerforfoodsafety.org/files/cfs-appendix-2-aquaadvantage-risk-assessment_56192.pdf\">small number of samples\u003c/a> put through safety tests, including those for potential allergens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, retailers’ willingness is another important piece of the puzzle. Several including \u003ca href=\"http://www.seattletimes.com/business/retail/costco-says-it-wont-sell-genetically-modified-salmon/\">Costco\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://csrsite.safeway.com/home/report-overview/position-statements/\">Safeway\u003c/a>, and Kroger have said they have no plans to sell the AquAdvantage salmon. \u003ca href=\"http://www.rodalesorganiclife.com/food/stores-wont-sell-genetically-engineered-salmon\">Other supermarket chains and retailers\u003c/a>, including Target, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and Aldi have made similar announcements. Last week, Walmart—a likely candidate—said it was too busy with “Black Friday” planning to comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates are also concerned about the precedent this approval sets. Although the U.S. is the first nation to approve the salmon, Food and Water Watch’s Lovera says, “We’re very concerned about foreign markets. A lot of people take the FDA as a green-light.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The FDA’s proposed voluntary guidelines on labeling for both GE salmon and other GE foods is open for public comment for 60 days beginning November 23rd.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>About the Writer\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nElizabeth Grossman is a Portland, Oregon-based journalist specializing in environmental and science issues.

She calls escapes \"an unavoidable consequence\" of fish farming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are also questions about the process used to render the fish sterile. It carries a very small rate of failure, but if a large number of fish escaped at once, a few fertile fish could introduce the transgenes into the wild population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sundström attests that the risk of escape is, for the most part, in the future. \"We are expecting very little risk at the moment, because there are very few facilities that actually hold these fish. I think what's a worry to some people is if it becomes commercialized and you find these kind of fish in millions of hatcheries around the world.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that were to happen, he says, the concern is that growers might become lax about containment methods, and then it would just be a matter of time before a fish — or a few — got out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sundström says scientists can't predict with absolute certainty what would happen in the event of an escape. The real world is just too complicated. \"You have to accept a certain amount of risk,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And how much risk is too much? \"It's not my thing to answer.\" He says that's for regulators to decide. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2015 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/97328/genetically-modified-salmon-coming-to-a-river-near-you","authors":["byline_bayareabites_97328"],"categories":["bayareabites_10028","bayareabites_4084","bayareabites_1245","bayareabites_10916","bayareabites_2035","bayareabites_358","bayareabites_60"],"tags":["bayareabites_2608","bayareabites_14586","bayareabites_10771","bayareabites_80"],"featImg":"bayareabites_97329","label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_96486":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_96486","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"96486","score":null,"sort":[1432998018000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"king-salmon-is-the-drought-threatening-californias-favorite-fish","title":"King Salmon: Is the Drought Threatening California’s Favorite Fish?","publishDate":1432998018,"format":"standard","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{"site":"bayareabites"},"content":"\u003cp>California salmon lovers spend a good part of the year waiting for summer, which normally heralds the return of our wild king salmon, aka the Chinook.
