Despite a statement from the fish farm that they would be giving up the ghost on the project and limit themselves to maturing the existing stock and then shutting up shop, the Piscifactoría de la Azucarera del Guadalfeo de Salobreña has announced that they will increasing the number of existing fish pens!
The reason is that they have received an injection of 1.030,000 euros, 50% of which came from the Junta de Andalucía. The idea is to replace the 36 old pens for new larger ones that will mean a 50% increase in production – great news for after-storm beach anglers, eh?
