Went for a field trip to the abalone farm today..The whole process of culturing abalone was demonstrated by the speaker.
From stimulating the abalone to release their eggs and sperms, to raising the trocophores in hatchery conditions and then transferring the veligers to the outdoor grow-out tanks. I was told that Australia's abalone are priced highly due to stringent health and environmental conditions. Well....Abalones go for $50/kg from the farm(shell-on)and my mum wants me to get back some. Way no!! My er yi (mum's second sister) gave me $50 before I left and asked me to get her some scallops and abalone. Muahaha.. Possibly the shells!
I have photos and I know that I have plenty of other photos for posting. But I am still waiting for the right time to upload the photos. Sigh.. Will do it next week. Its semester break.. As for now, back to studying for tml's test.
