Bros. I've got a crazy idea. I'm a normal midsized farmer. I produce alfalfa ranch cattle. But I got my degree in agricultural science a few years back. And it's givin me some funny ideas.
I live in a completely landlocked state two timezones away from a coast. But I love shellfish. Shrimp in particular. So I got to looking at what it would take to raise my own giant fresh water prawn.
I have this old irrigation pond I've been thinking of partially filling and raising them on rolled corn, cow manure, and table scraps.
I'll probably give it an initial try just for myself. But I wonder if they would sell well alive at farmer's markets?
Does anyone have any experience with aquaculture?
I also like crawdads. But not near as much as shrimp
