Fish Farmer

Nature & Environment

Fish farmers are responsible for the entire fish farming process. Spawning fish and/or live-bearing fish are kept. In the case of spawning fish, the spawn is stripped from the live fish with gentle pressure on the abdominal cavity. Livebearing fish must be fertilised and the fry cared for and monitored. It is also possible to smoke fish, breed organic fish, offer sport fishing and sell sea fish and other fish products. They carry out the following activities:
