When you think of the sea, you may not think of Xinjiang or Inner Mongolia. But recently, the" seafood" produced in these places has become popular, especially after Japan put muclear- contaminated water(核污染水) into the sea, reported China Daily.
In Nilka county(尼勒克县) in Xinjiang, about 6,000 tons of rainbow trout(虹鳟鱼) will be produced this year. Rainbow trout belongs to the same family as salmon(鲑鱼), which is a kind of well- known seafood. It tastes like salmon too.
Why do farmers there choose to grow fish? The weather in some parts of Xinjiang is seldom hot, and the rivers are fed by meltwater(融水) from the Tianshan Mountains. Water deeper than 6 meters always stays at 10 C. As the meltwater is very clean and cold, it's a" comfortable" home for fish, Li Chunyu, a worker at a fish company in Xinjiang, told China Daily.
To make sure the river stays clean, the company uses machines to clean fish waste in the water. They also use net cages(网箱) that are good for the environment. The net s are about 51 meters wide and lie 25 meters deep in the river.
Meanwhile, in Inner Mongolia, whitele g shrimp(南美白对虾) grows well. Saline soil(盐碱土) covers a large part of the desert where few plants are able to grow. Farmers used to put water from the Yellow River onto the farmland to wash away the salt. This was a waste of salty water.
Scientists then decided to create" seawater" with the salty water by adding in some other components. Whiteleg shrimps can live well in this kind of water. They taste no different from the same kind of shrimp that grows in the sea.
① cleans the water with machines
② grows fish in fixed water areas
③ grows one kind of fish once a year
④ cuts down the fish production
