With the Chinese at our Dicla Tunnel

The Chinese taking a look....
The Chinese are all over Africa at the moment and what they don't know about farming fish is probably not worth knowing. Of considerable interest was the fact that they claimed carp to be the most farmed fish in China, as opposed to what we thought would be tilapia. It is other countries like Vietnam that farm tilapia more intensively owing to their more conducive weather. China, being as vast as it is has considerably more significant temperature variations. 

Also of interest was the comment that there is a lot of small scale farming. This is encouraging for our model for South Africa.
