Description

New Zealand’s only freshwater prawn farm was established in 1987 to take advantage of geothermal waste heat from the Wairakei power generating field on North Island. Since approximately 2000 tonnes (2200 tons) per year of prawns are imported annually into New Zealand, the motivation was to try and capture some of this market with a domestic product
