It has been a long time in the works here at Gulf of Maine, Inc. to and we are so happy to see plans for the impacts of the N-Viro Dredge being measured in a research project. The N-Viro Dredge has already shown to make scallop harvesting more fuel efficient, reducing fuel consumption by 25% compared to a traditional dredge.
The N-Viro Dredge also has environmental benefits! The individually sprung teeth are shown to cause less disruption of the bottom dwelling marine community. Learn more about N-Viro Dredge by clicking here.
We’re expecting big things for the future of shellfish harvesting!
