One of the fish ponds. The worker standing in the back of the truck is using equipment which the owner adapted for use as a "feed gun," which sprays food throughout the pond very effectively. The owner has begun a pilot program of super-intensive production in small, circular ponds, which require a great deal more fresh, oxygenated water, but which allow the fish to grow to market size and weight very quickly, and will cut down on losses due to predation by birds protected by Jamaican law. |
