How it's Farming Mussel and Oyster - Mussel and Oyster Harvesting Machine - Oyster Processing

#noalfarm #noalharvesting
Mussel farmers catch larval mussels naturally on ropes made of natural and biodegradable fibre. They are then wound around wooden stakes, also called bouchots. This way, the mussels are out of reach of crabs and other predators. Each bouchot stake can hold up to 80 kg of mussels. The shell of the bouchot mussel is at least 12mm thick and no more than 8 cm long. It does not contain sand or parasites.
