Price and characteristics of Australian crayfish.

1. Australian freshwater lobster prices. According to Chen, an Australian freshwater lobster farmer in Guangdong, the Australian freshwater lobster is currently quite good market conditions. Prices in the Pearl River Delta region are stabilizing. Mainstream specifications average 4 times, with larger specifications weighing up to 1 kilogram, and prices range from 50 yuan for 1 kilogram to 100 yuan for nearly 1 kilogram (priced by weight).

2. Australian freshwater lobster characteristics. Australian crayfish are actually similar to crayfish and always live in freshwater. Australian crayfish has more advantages than crayfish, such as disease resistance, weak aggression, tolerance of hypoxia, resistance to pollution, adaptability, tender meat, delicious flavor. Most importantly, the meat yield of Australian crayfish is higher than other freshwater shrimp, not only easy to be accepted by the crayfish and lobster consumers, but also can become a high-end alternative consumer products.

Australian crayfish farming traps.

1. Australian freshwater lobster fingerlings are limited. Australian freshwater lobster, although there are many advantages and good profit margins, but due to the long absence of the introduction of China, the current industry is not very standardized, and there is no large-scale Australian freshwater lobster nursery, so its seedlings are limited.

2. Lack of breeding experience. Just like the first point, Australian freshwater lobster has not been introduced to China for a long time and now lacks reliable breeding experience. In the Pearl River Delta region, the species is mainly cultured in ponds, and its breeding experience needs to be explored on its own. Most importantly, there is no special feed available.

3. Hype. Like most agricultural products imported from abroad, Australian crayfish have been subjected to a great deal of hype.In 2017, there was a crayfish trap broodstock market in Australia, which resulted in many farmers suffering losses. It is for these reasons that farmers are afraid to raise Australian freshwater lobsters despite the good market for them. I believe that everyone will be able to eat this lobster after the industry standard for this lobster species is established.
