'Bell Aquaculture raises about 2 million yellow perch on its farm in Indiana each year, making it the leader in aquaculture production in the state'

Quoting from the AgriNews article by Katie Nickas:

"ALBANY, Ind. — Bell Aquaculture raises about 2 million yellow perch on its farm in Indiana each year, making it the leader in aquaculture production in the state.

'We are based in Indiana, but our sales cover the Great Lakes region,' said president Norman McCowan. 'We have our own brood stock, we’re vertically integrated and we raise our own fingerlings.'

The company went into business in 2005, completed the Indiana State Department of Agriculture’s certified livestock producer program last August and is expanding its facility to include a market for Indiana’s soybean farmers, as well."
