Why China is farming salmon in the mountains - far away from the ocean

Chinese salmon trout are just farmed differently. High up in the Tianshan Mountains in China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, salmon trout are raised in pure, cold meltwater from glaciers that makes for an oxygen-rich environment ideal for their growth.  

When it is time for harvest, China's premium fish, bred in high-tech facilities, are gently vacuum-pumped through massive tubes that guarantee they experience no stress. They are then flash-frozen and processed on-site at Nilka County's world-class facilities within hours. 

The journey from China's fish farms to your plate guarantees unmatched freshness. Join CGTN's Zang Shijie for a true taste of sustainability.
