The history, present status and prospects of the availability of Artemia cysts for aquaculture

This paper provides an overview of the history of Artemia cyst provision worldwide since the 1950s. It allows a better assessment of the current situation, characterized by poor yields from the main harvest site, the Great Salt Lake in Utah, USA, and to make prognoses about future supplies and demands.
