Best Answer

No. It wouldn't make economic sense to farm herring because they eat plankton, which occur naturally in the ocean. It would take much more energy to gather the plankton and bring them to the farm than you would get out of the herring. Besides, I very much doubt if herring would thrive in captivity.
