Oyster farming is growing in NC, but it’s been plagued by mass mortality events. Almost every summer, farmers experience crop failures, sometimes losing 90% of their oysters. Researchers from UNC-Chapel Hill, Duke and NC State are studying the die-offs and how to prevent them. Sci NC’s Rossie Izlar heads to Morehead City to meet with the researchers and oyster farmer Tyler Chadwick.
