摘要

It is best known as the home of Disneyland, NASA's rocket launches and man-eating alligators.Now florida, America's sunshine state, has just launched another Hpotentially world beating product - fresh salmon.A few weeks ago the fish farming company Atlantic Sapphire realised a ten-year-old vision with the first commercial harvest of USA raised Blue-house Salmon from its new land based facility in Miami.Salmon farms are normally associated with cooler climes, so the development marks a ground-breaking moment for the US seafood industry.For the first time Americans will be able to buy fresh salmon this Christmas, not only raised in their own backyard, but also in the warmest state of the Union.The people behind Atlantic Sapphire say that because of its ample supply of both fresh and salt water, Florida is the perfect place to raise fresh salmon.
