Scallop farming in nets is non invasive green and organic way to harvest shellfish


Scallop farming in nets is non invasive green and organic way to grow and harvest the filter feeding shellfish who extract their own food from the sea. There is no waste associated with this method (unlike fish farming) and this is much more environmentally friendly than scallop dredging which scours the seabed clean of life.
