Most people's understanding of crabs is that they are small tanks on the seabed. They have carapace and big pincers. They eat meat and drink wine. They eat seaweed when they encounter them, eat shrimps when they encounter them, and eat small fish when they encounter them. Green forest hero under the sea.
In fact, crabs also contribute a lot to the ocean. They are regulators of heavy metal content in the ocean. People who like to eat crabs know that there are two rows of soft ribs under the crab's large carapace, which are their lungs.
Crabs need to continuously absorb seawater during their life. When seawater passes through their lungs, heavy metal ions will be screened out, and the content of related ions in the outflowing seawater will be very low.
Sanders told Qin Shiou, who nodded. He had planned to breed crabs before, but later found that there were many queen crabs in the fishery, so the matter was shelved.
Later, because queen crabs moved offshore in winter, Qin Shiou was afraid of harming the coral reefs, so he organized fishermen to salvage several times, packed up several large crab groups, and sold them to Miami and New York for money.
Now that the heavy metal content in fisheries exceeds the standard, sea crabs must be cultured on a large scale.
The question is, what type of crabs are they going to breed?
The best crabs often come from the Pacific Ocean, such as Dungeness crabs, king crabs, etc. Snow crabs, which are abundant in the North Atlantic, also have many populations in the Pacific Ocean. Speaking of which, the Pacific Ocean is considered the richest place for crabs.
What Qin Shiou wants to breed is Dungeness crab. As an important resource for crab products in the United States, this kind of crab is indeed a valuable treasure as its name suggests.
The value of Dungeness crab lies not only in its delicious taste, but also because of its high meat yield, which exceeds 25%. That is, if you buy one kilogram of Dungeness crab, you can eat half a kilogram of crab meat. For snow crab and blue crab, Said, it is simply unimaginable.
The queen crabs produced at Daqin Fishing Farm can be sold at high prices in New York and Miami. The price of the best crabs is 200% higher than similar products on the market. The reason is that their crabs are not only delicious and have high nutritional value, but also have higher crab meat. Productivity.
But even the best Daqin brand queen crab has a crab meat yield of less than 20%, while the normal one is only 16%-18%. As for ordinary queen crabs from the outside, the crab meat yield is even lower, up to 13%. !
The main production area of ??Dungeness crab is North America, and more than 90% of Dungeness crabs in North America are caught by American fishermen, with only a small amount caught in Canada.
Canada¡¯s fishing volume is small, but sales are not low. Usually, after most Dungeness crabs are caught on the West Coast of the United States, they go to Vancouver, Canada, through San Diego, and then sold to supermarkets and restaurants across Canada through Vancouver.
Therefore, if Daqin Fish Farm can cultivate Dungeness crabs, then Daqin brand seafood can become Canada¡¯s flagship product in one fell swoop.
Here¡¯s the problem. Dungeness crabs are territorial reproductive crabs. Their largest population exists in the waters of Alaska. The number in other waters of the North Pacific is relatively reduced. In the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, there are almost none.
In addition, the Dungeness crabs in Alaskan waters are not only the largest in number, but also the largest in size, with an average weight of 1 kilogram. The average weight of Dungeness crabs produced in Washington state, Oregon, California and Canadian Columbia is 25% smaller.
Countries and regions on the Atlantic coast have all studied how to introduce Dungeness crab, especially Japan. The sales of this crab in the island country are very strong. The financial power they use to study Dungeness crab is second only to the investment in bluefin tuna.
However, now that bluefin tuna breeding technology has made revolutionary progress, Japan¡¯s Dungeness crab breeding technology is still at a loss.
Fortunately, Japan¡¯s Hokkaido waters belong to the North Pacific, and this kind of crab is also produced. This can solve the dependence of Japanese diners on Dungeness crab.
In Qin Shiou¡¯s understanding, the crab with the most economic value and potential value is Dungeness crab. Now countries and regions with conditions will fish them in winter, resulting in a reduction in the production of this crab.
The United States and Canada have strong protections for Dungeness crabs. Only male crabs can be caught. Female crabs must be returned to the sea and cannot be transported or sold. Once someone is found to have violated the law, in addition to a large fine, they will not be issued again in this life. Dungeness crab fishing license.
Yes, fishing for Dungeness crab is the same as hunting bluefin tuna. You need to purchase a fishing license from the Department of Fisheries, otherwise it is illegal fishing.
After Qin Shiou said his plan, Sanders was a little embarrassed.
He knows how difficult it is to raise Dungeness crabs in the Atlantic Ocean. In fact, the Marine Science Research Institute of the University of Toronto has also studied the method of raising Dungeness crabs in the Atlantic Ocean, but in the end no substantial progress was made.
There is no doubt that if Daqin Fishing Farm wants to breed this kind of crab, the technical pressure will be on him. Qin Shiou will not spend a high price to raise him in vain without making any contribution.
In addition, Dungeness crab female crabs and crab seeds are quite expensive, especially since there is no Dungeness crab training base in the entire province of Newfoundland. If you want to breed Dungeness crabs, you have to transport them from Columbia, and the shipping cost alone is an astronomical sum.
If Sanders cannot successfully breed this kind of crab, then he really has no way to explain to Qin Shiou.
After hesitating for a while, Sanders decided to speak openly: "I'm talking to boss, farming Dungeness crabs in the North Atlantic is not much different from throwing Canadian dollars into the sea. To be honest, I don't have confidence. Solve this subject.¡±
Qin Shiou patted him on the shoulder and said in an encouraging manner: "Let go and work hard, I believe you will be fine! Just find a way to breed them. I don't need you to be responsible. It is my idea to insist on breeding Dungeness crabs. In the end, if the breeding is really not successful, the responsibility will also be on me."
Sanders smiled bitterly, the boss could say that, but as a subordinate, would he really dare to pass the responsibility to the boss?
He thinks Qin Shiou is a bit crazy. If he had known that this guy wanted to breed Dungeness crabs, he would not have come to Daqin Fishing Farm to work. This is not to be a technical consultant, but to enter the Nobel Prize!
Qin Shiou was telling the truth. He felt that with the power of Poseidon energy to transform living things, there should be no problem in transforming Dungeness crabs to adapt to the Atlantic Ocean.
Sanders has another great use. He asked this veteran marine expert to work as a farmer. He just wants to find a name for successfully breeding Dungeness crabs. You can't just raise Dungeness crabs without an explanation, right?
The topic he prepared for Sanders was to study the black-capped giant worm. He had already sent out the giant monster to get back more than ten pieces of the insect's carapace, and now they were thrown on the coral reef, ready to be fished out for research at any time.
But Sanders didn't know. He accepted the Dungeness crab breeding project with a grimace. After leaving the villa, he immediately took out his mobile phone and called a group of old guys: "Hurry up and provide me with technical support. My little boss wants to breed Dungeness crabs." !¡±
¡°Oh, God, is he crazy?¡±
"No, he is not crazy, I am crazy, and I am accompanying him crazy!"
"Well, God bless you, I have already foreseen the scenario where you will lose even your underpants." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
