Val High School Students’ Hands-On Hatchery Experience at Jumbo Fish Farm
Welcome to Jumbo Fish Farm, where the future of sustainable aquaculture unfolds! Val High School students recently embarked on an exciting journey through our cutting-edge hatchery, discovering the innovative practices that make JFF a leader in the aquaculture industry.
The students began their adventure with an eye-opening tour of our state-of-the-art hatchery. Under the guidance of our expert aquaculturists, they explored the essentials of fish farming, from site selection to broodstock management. They saw firsthand how our advanced technologies and meticulous methods support high-quality fish production and sustainability.
Next, the students took part in the vital task of cleaning and maintaining our hatchery. They discovered that cleanliness is not just a routine task but a cornerstone of fish health and farm productivity. Armed with scrub brushes and eco-friendly cleaning solutions, they learned how maintaining a sterile environment supports our commitment to environmental sustainability.
One of the highlights was the chance to get involved in the delicate process of fingerling packaging. The students learned the importance of precision in handling young fish and how careful packaging ensures their safe transport. This experience demonstrated our dedication to quality and the meticulous care involved in every step of fish farming.
Students were then introduced to the fascinating world of artificial propagation for African catfish. They observed and participated in egg fertilization and larval development, gaining insights into the cutting-edge techniques that make us a leader in sustainable aquaculture practices.
