Although the Negev Desert in Israel is not as famous as the Mu Us Desert in China and the Sahara Desert in Africa, it is also vast and barren, making it unsuitable for human survival. As we all know, Israel is a small land. The land dispute with Palestine is filled with smoke and war, but they have very developed agriculture and animal husbandry. There are not many lakes and ditches in the territory, and they are also an exporter of aquatic products. Did so many of their aquatic products fall from the sky? It turns out that the smart Israelis used the desert of the Sea of ??Death as an aquatic product breeding base. This is really incredible. Even the United Nations Environment Program found it incredible. Therefore, the "Global Desert Outlook" report they published stated that deserts contain huge economic potential!

Aleph is the initiator of raising fish and shrimp in the desert. The Aleph Aquatic Products Company he founded named after him is based in the desert. After more than ten years of development, it has become the largest aquatic product breeding development company in Israel. Under his umbrella, there is also a Desert Aquaculture Research Institute, which is unique in the world. What prompted Aleph to invest in fish farming in the desert?

Before Aleph went to the desert to develop aquatic product farming, he was engaged in aquatic product farming in his hometown. It is not large enough, and due to wars with the Palestinians, the city gates often catch fire, affecting the fish in the pond. Aleph was very troubled by this, but there was nothing he could do about it. Once he went to the Negev desert to play and accidentally got lost. He struggled in the desert for three days, running out of water and food. The biggest problem was severe dehydration. He tried to find water in the desert. Fortunately for him, a desert lake actually appeared in front of him. In that arid zone, the water was mainly accumulated by melting glaciers. The water was crystal clear, but it was bitter and astringent. It was important to survive, so Aleph drank it desperately. It was this thrilling journey to death that gave him the illusion. There is an uncultivated body of water hidden deep in the desert. Since there is a body of water, there should be more desert lakes. If these lakes can be invested in breeding, it will be a huge wealth. He told his family about this idea, and they thought he was frightened in the desert and became insane. If the lakes in the desert could be cultivated, would he still wait until today?

Aleph began to search persistently. Information on fish farming in the desert, but found nothing. In this world, so far, no one has pioneered farming in the desert. With a glimmer of hope, he went to the Fisheries School of Hebrew University to ask about the feasibility of raising fish in the desert. The professor there said that what we have been studying is conventional farming. As for using desert lake resources to raise fish, sorry, we have never done so. involved. Aleph was disappointed, but he didn't give up. He was always worried about it. It’s all water, so why are lakes in the desert “different”? Just like crops can’t be grown in the desert, fish can’t be raised? As the saying goes, where there’s water, there are fish. Is it really not suitable for fish to grow there? He made a special trip to that lake to see if it could grow. The result of the inspection made him very disappointed. He was fishing for the moon from the bottom of the water, and not a single fish or shrimp was caught in the huge lake. So, do lakes in the desert really not grow fish? After testing, the water there is very salty and bitter. Is this the real reason why the water in the desert does not grow fish and shrimp? No, according to scientific judgment, This just shows that the water in the desert is the most suitable for fish to live. Otherwise, why would the equally bitter sea become the home of fish! Aleph, who was determined to go his own way, set out with the fry, and he stocked those fry in a small lake At the end of the year, he would fish there again. Alas, don’t mention it, those fish grew bigger and fatter than the same fish he kept in his own fish pond. Aleph was so happy that he applied to the relevant departments. Of course, no one cared about that barren land, and Aleph got permission to use it for free.

Aleph achieved unexpected success. Because the fish he produces come from deserts far away from the hustle and bustle, there is no pollution, and they are authentic green products that enter the market and are in short supply. Now, he has registered his aquatic products as desert trademarks and has become a well-known brand. In this way, the price of his fish is 20% higher than that of similar fish and shrimps. Under his influence, fish farming in the desert became a common practice among the Israelites.

When talking about the successful experience of fish farming, Aleph said deeply: "Some people think that the desert is a Cinderella, out of people's sight, and no one really thinks about it. In the desert, it seems like nothing is possible there; but as long as you think about it, you can do it; as long as you take action, it is possible.
