Abalone is one of the marine treasures, and its nutritional value and economic value are very high. Abalone is tender and delicious, which is favored by consumers. It is the most common high-grade food on people's table and is listed as "the first of eight treasures". The following small series will introduce you to the artificial breeding technology of abalone. First, the breeding conditions 1. Mature parent abalone: Choose healthy abalone without damage, generally the shell length is more than 6cm, and the gonad appearance requirements are extremely full, covering most of the digestive gland, and the gonad protrudes from the shell edge. 2. To prepare the temporary rearing pond for parent abalone and the rearing pond for young abalone, black plastic sheets are needed to promote seedling raising. 3. Collector: It is mainly made of transparent plexiglass, polyethylene plastic algae plate and film. 4. Acquisition frame: made of steel bars, wrapped with film, or made of fine bamboo wood. Second, the cultivation method Abalone generally takes seaweed as the main food. They like clean and tender seaweed as bait, and they can also be eaten if they choose dried algae to soak. In artificial breeding of abalone, the selection of abalone seedlings is very important, and the seedlings with bright colors, uniform heads and no obvious scars on shells should be selected as seedlings. Generally, seedlings with a length of 2cm are the most suitable. It is necessary to observe whether the growth line and adsorption capacity of abalone seedlings are strong, and selecting abalone seedlings with vigorous vitality can improve the disease resistance. Abalone is usually cultured in a cage. At the same time, a plastic cage, about the size of two soap boxes, should be placed in the cage, and then hung neatly in the cage. Another important job in aquaculture in the sea is to clean the cages, because after a long time, a lot of seaweed and other things will attach to the nets, thus hindering the flow of water. At the same time, seaweed is easy to rot and breed bacteria, so it should be removed in time. Third, daily management In the usual management, we must do a good job in feeding. In the abalone fry just put into production, seaweed is mainly fed, and artificial feeding is also carried out in combination with the actual situation. In autumn, because there is relatively little bait in the sea, attention should be paid to artificial feeding at this time. It is to treat dried kelp and turn it into bait for feeding. Whether the feeding is timely and scientific is directly related to whether the baby abalone can grow quickly. If they are high in nutrition, the corresponding disease resistance will be enhanced a lot. Fourth, disease prevention and control abalone, we must do a good job in disease prevention. Because abalone grows at sea, it is basically unreliable to use drugs to treat diseases, and the cost is also very high. Therefore, the cultivation of abalone is mainly based on prevention. In normal times, the water quality and environment must be controlled well, and the feed must be kept clean and fresh, so as to prevent diseases in time. The above is the artificial aquaculture technology of abalone. Abalone aquaculture is an aquaculture project with high input, high output and high benefit, and the aquaculture cycle is long, and the requirements for aquaculture technology are also high. Therefore, abalone culture has certain investment risks, but its breeding profit is very considerable. Farmers who want to breed abalone must master the breeding technology, investigate the market and find a good market.
