Why are sea cucumbers so expensive?
Sea cucumber is expensive for several reasons. 1 has a rare yield and a long growth cycle, and has extremely high medicinal value.

The conditions of sea cucumber culture are very harsh. Wild sea cucumber needs to grow in a specific sea area suitable for growth, and sea cucumber fishing is also very troublesome. Professional divers need to dive to the bottom of the sea 15 meters before fishing, so it takes a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources from breeding, fishing to final processing, and the processing technology is very complicated, so the price of sea cucumber is very high.
