Development of culture techniques for spawning and larval rearing of WA dhufish (Glaucosoma hebraicum).
By world standards Australia has not developed a significant marine finfish fanning industry. One of the principal constraints has been the absence of suitable technology for Australian species. This technology is currently being developed in a number of research facilities in temperate regions of...

Enhancement of yabbie production from Western Australian farm dams
Farmers receive higher prices per kilo for large yabbies. Yabby farmers have reported that the majority of yabbies trapped from farm dams are below market size (< 30 g) and therefore of no economic value. In addition, farmers also report that while dams produce large yabbies when...
