点评:Together with my son and his wife, we visited Amorn Pearl Farm in Phuket on October 6, 2024.
My special interest as a marine biologist (aquaculture) and university teacher was to see first hand the complicated process of cultivating the pearl oysters and producing the marvellous pearls.
Diego, our Amorn tour guide gave as the best introduction not only in what we expected but even more - into the various other activities of the company which are directed to environmental protection of various other marine inhabitants, like lobsters, crabs and selected fish species like groupers and the black kingfish.
Our friendly guide Diego explained every step of pearl farming, beginning with the collection of the pearl oysters spat (larvae) on "artificial corals", their separation, transfer and feeding (first with cultured phytoplancton, later in the open waters), the implantation of the nucleus for pearl formation, their growth, cleaning, harvesting, quality control and processing of the pearls in Amorn's jewellery workshops.
It was quite a great experience and we left the farm full of new knowledge about the skilled employees of the farm and their product, the wonderful jewels of the sea.
Our thank goes to Amorn Phuket Pearl for organising tours through their farm and exhibition halls - and to our experienced tour guide Diego who was able to explain even complicated matters patiently in a very understandable way!
Thank to you all!
翻译:2024 年 10 月 6 日,我和儿子及儿媳一起参观了位于普吉岛的阿莫恩珍珠养殖场。
作为一名海洋生物学家(水产养殖)和大学教师,我特别感兴趣的是亲眼目睹养殖珍珠牡蛎和生产奇妙珍珠的复杂过程。
我们的阿莫恩导游 Diego 不仅为我们提供了我们所期望的最佳介绍,还介绍了该公司旨在保护其他各种海洋生物(如龙虾、螃蟹和石斑鱼和黑鲯鳅)的环境保护的各种其他活动。
我们友好的导游 Diego 解释了珍珠养殖的每一个步骤,从在“人造珊瑚”上收集珍珠牡蛎卵(幼虫)开始,到分离、转移和喂养(首先用培养的浮游植物,然后在开放水域),植入珍珠形成核,然后是珍珠的生长、清洁、收获、质量控制以及在 Amorn 珠宝工坊中加工珍珠。
这是一次非常棒的体验,我们离开农场时对农场熟练的员工和他们的产品——海洋中的美妙宝石有了全新的认识。
我们感谢 Amorn Phuket Pearl 组织参观他们的农场和展览厅 - 也感谢我们经验丰富的导游 Diego,他能够以非常易懂的方式耐心地解释即使是复杂的事情!
谢谢大家!
