Mainstream Aquaculture

摘要

A new hatchery and a far-sighted R&D program puts this Australian barramundi producer at the head of the pack.Oack in 2007 the unreliable supply of barramundi seedstock launched Australia's MainStream Aquaculture on a program that has brought them to a position of global leadership.At their new $10-million hatchery located in Werribee on the outskirts of Melbourne they produce 30 million fry annually. Add to that the six million fry produced each year at their original North Queensland hatchery in Townsville and this progressive aquaculture company produces around half the world's supply of commercial Lates calcarifer. They now export fry to 17 countries across five continents, with key markets in the Middle East, North America and South East Asia.
