Good quality sea water on the east coast of Phuket
Island at Koh Sireh area is proved to be ideal for
cultivation of Abalone or sea shells with meat
inside like mussels. Located on a large plot of
land, the Phuket Abalone Farm, the first
commercial farm operated in Thailand since 1996 by
Sitthisak Muangsin, the Managing Director of the
farm, who explained that he chose Phuket for two
main reasons: the good water quality which is a
vital element and Phuket's international air links
as the production is mainly for exports. To many,
Abalone is new or not known at all. Abalone
belongs to the phylum Mollusca, which are found
worldwide. The animal is named slightly
differently in other parts of the world, as the
company's managing director told us. Abalone is a
traditional food in many Asian countries such as
China, where it's not only a luxury food, but a
health item also because of its high protein and
low calorie content. Apart from its nice taste,
Sitthisak defines the nutrition value and
consumption purposes as being good for
supplementary food and for cosmetics. Cultivation
here is not only for commercial export, but they
also have products made from fresh abalone such as
seasonings and sauces, ready-to-eat soups, and
other health products made at the Farm. Three
sections are shown here: the Abalone farm, Abalone
Restaurant and Abalone Products. These abalone are
one year and a half old for commercial sales at
about 25 grams each or 40 pieces per kilogram, and
for breeding the parents are about 2 years old.
They are sold at about 1,500 baht per kilogram.
Sitthisak also revealed his production and
marketing plans: The demand for this unique
shellfish is quite consistent because of its
unique taste. From around the world there are
wonderful abalone recipes. The Japanese have
recipes to suit many tastes such as boiling and
steaming, but the most popular cuisine is sushi
and sashimi. The favored western styles are
grilling and deep-frying in skillets. He admits
that his production from the farm now is only 0.5%
of the total demand of 20,000 kilograms per year
around the world. Abalone prices are affected by
factors both in the supply and demand sides of the
market, but given the rate of decline of supply,
it will take many years to respond to the demand,
thereby allowing prices to remain highly
profitable. The farm operator said he is willing
to explore any new options or sharing knowledge
with others interested in this industry.
