This was invented in New Zealand in the late 1970s. There are thousands of hectares of them in coromandel where I go fishing. They provide a haven for fish
This man and many like him are some of our Greatest Unsung Heroes, as 17 year old had a dream and kept it and today he is feeding the world, we need as many people with this dream and motivation, this Idea should be taught in school and Who knows how far a generation of people could do for the good of Mankind? It would be Mind-Blowing. Great video.
in new zealand we have a lot of mussel farms been growing them for 50yrs we pretty much mastered the art.......... an harvesting them azwel through kiwi ingenuity
What a beautiful vessel to harvest on. We are just pulling in our socks here in Tatamagouche Bay, Nova Scotia right now. Our methods are slightly more primitive to say the least haha. I really enjoyed this video.
Good job! It would be good to expand this kind of aquaculture to other regions of the world. Among the benefits would be increases in water quality, greater biodiversity and healthier diets for people.
I am very fascinated by utilizing integrated multi trophic systems for shellfish aquaculture. Fish produce a lot of nutrition which can eutrophy their environment when cultivated. But shellfish get fat and harvestable on that fish waste, making cultivating both at once very sustainable and profitable
Food is more as a past time and enjoyment rather than essential as farming in the 15 th century but seafood and seaweed farming is a good source of productive, help ocean keep itself healthy and shore line passive line of defense against intruders
You can’t get brain food on land. It has to come from the sea (DHA, iodine, etc.), and these are also far more ethical since they are similar to plants and cannot take evasive maneuvers when being “attacked” and thus have had no biological utility or need to be able to perceive pain in the way we consider it. This food will save the world. Ethical, sustainable, super brain food! ⚡️
Very interesting. But carbon is necessary for all living things. The more carbon, the richer the forestation - plant life. Without carbon, all living things will perish. Inbuilt into the natural system of life, are self adjusting mechanisms much like the principle of the human immune system. The problem is not too much carbon, but too much pesticides, herbicides,heavy metals and plastic- petro chemical bioroducts being dumped illegally and legally onto the land, water and atmosphere.
There is no such thing as sustainable seafood aquaculture certainly not at the commercial harvest scale. The Energy burden if not immediately evident will express itself somewhere in time. There is no free lunch. We have the same mindset for every exploited resource, it'll never end, its safe don't worry we know what where doing.
You're ignorant and wrong, they've been doing this in New Zealand fir 50 years. The mussels clean the water and provide a haven for fish. Especially snapper that can eat the mussels.
the are omniores there not cleaning water their siphoning for food everything gametes and xygotes.anything planktonic . the poly unsaturated fatty acids needed for specific protiens or the amino acids to build those protiens come from somewhere Just because something is being done for a long time doesn't make it right or correct. @@joedennehy386

A wonderful operation - well done to the entire team...
one of the best source of protein because mussels help clean the sea...

Excellent
Super fascinating show. I wonder if these practices will become standard one day all over the world if applicable.
Love the muscles of workers 🙌🏻💪🏻

Awesome !
A Good Clean Industry once its well away from Toxic Salmon Farms,
Congratulations for the award.
Congratulations!!!🦐🦞🦀🐚👏👏👏👏👏👏
that's great!!
what are the ropes made of
They seem to be made of natural fiber. My guess it could be made of hemp, linen, cotton, etc... Hemp would be my best guess because of the color.

This is super interesting
I like this but I think that they need to switch over to hemp rope to make it more sustainable those plastics aren't good for the sea
❤❤❤❤😍😍😍😍😍
Which mussel species is that? Mytilus edulis?

Yet the populations in the developed world are decreasing not increasing.
yeah but what are the nets made from? ocean safe material? it look like plastic.

Sorry, farm raised anything does not have the nutrients or quality of wild.
