Saltwater fish farm brings a taste of ocean to inland region

STORY: Saltwater fish farm brings a taste of ocean to inland region SHOOTING TIME: Jan. 1, 2024 DATELINE: Jan. 6, 2024 LENGTH: 00:01:27 LOCATION: URUMQI, China CATEGORY: SOCIETY SHOTLIST: 1. various of Hongqi Farm STORYLINE: In northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, which is over a thousand miles away from the coast, a farm cultivating saltwater fish is redefining the local understanding of seafood and fisherman. Hongqi Farm, located in Atux City of Kizilsu Kirgiz Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, began a bold experiment to raise saltwater fish in saline-alkali water. Flowing in abundance from a nearby valley, the salty water has long been seen as unusable wastewater. With the assistance funds from south China's Guangdong Province, the farm has managed to fertilize the saline-alkali water naturally to simulate a marine water environment, and it has built an automatic purification system that allows the water to be reused. Saltwater seafood options from prawns to lobsters have been piloted
