About your innovation
We have developed an innovative, sustainable, "no-kill" sea urchin aquaculture method called "raking". Unlike the traditional method in which the entire gonad is harvested (which involves killing the sea urchin), in the raking process it is only the eggs that are harvested, meaning the sea urchins survive and are able to spawn over several production cycles, enabling sustainable echinoculture.
