McCrudden explains how his company farms and harvests shellfish to produce annual seed for the industry, how sensitive and delicate climate change is on shellfish, the benefits of seagrass restoration helping to keep Florida waters clean and the shellfish thriving and also touching on other research projects and agricultural innovations he's involved with.
