Abalone breeding is one of the pillar industries in Lianjiang County. As abalones have very strict requirements on their growing environment, especially the water temperature, fishermen in Lianjiang have adopted a way of breeding in different sea areas to improve the survival rate of abalones. Every year at the turn of spring and summer in April and May, abalones are sent to the northern sea area, where the water is cooler, to spend the summer, and then come back to Lianjiang when late autumn comes. In this way, not only is the yield of abalones increased, but also the quality is improved. [Photo/Xinhua]
