1. What is the method of soft shell crab farming pictured below called? Why is this method considered to be the most superior method of farming?

 
 
 

  • The picture above depicts cage farming. It is superior because there is only 1 crab per cage which allows each crab to be fed individually. 

  • When grown together crabs tend to fight, which may cause damage to their legs and claws. Growing each crab individually eliminates these issues. 

  • This form of farming creates a more natural molting method. The crabs are healthier and meatier since farmers do not remove legs before putting them in their cages, as some farming methods prescribe.

3. Each crab is packed individually in the style pictured below. What is the name and benefit of this style?

 
 
 

This is the "tucking" method. The legs are tucked under the crab before wrapping which prevents breakage.
