    About this ebook

    Through the coming years I would experiment, various times, through trial and error, but many people were still not convinced that fish breeding was the future and providing food for the masses. I dug dams, at Orkney sewerage farm, started with duck, and fish project, then the portion I was renting was reclaimed by the Orkney municipality, for the enlargement of the sewerage plant and financially I could not continue on my own without having land to farm on.
