Yellowtail farmingYellowtail is a commercially valuable aquaculture species that grows fast and mainly lives in tropical and subtropical waters of the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans. Yellowtail becomes more and more popular as aquaculture specieswith the application of sea cage and RAS.
1.Culture in the sea cageThe first stage: Yellowtail fry
The yellowtail fry (Buriko) mainly caught from the wild. After the yellowtail spawns, the buriko which is less than 15mm in size, will be brought near the coast by the current and can be fished with fine nets. Wild yellowtail fry are also imported from countries such as the Republic of Korea and Vietnam.
The second stage: Baby fish
Yellowtail are generally kept in nylon nets or sea cages made of metal. The farms will also adopt some large-sized net fences in order to provide sufficient training space which helps them grow high-quality muscles.
The third stage: Growth period
Yellowtail are generally kept in nylon nets or sea cages made of metal. The farms will also adopt some large-sized net fences in order to provide sufficient training space which helps them grow high-quality muscles.
2. Land farming
Land-based Marine Aquaculture is different from traditional cage aquaculture. It has developed a sustainable and innovative breeding process. And yellowtail can now also be farmed in a sustainable closed system now.
