Native oysters: a new Indigenous Australian industry? | First Nation Farmers Ep2 | ABC Australia

The people of Goulburn Island in the Arafura Sea off Northern Australia have been eating and trading oysters for centuries. Now the remote Aboriginal community has set up an oyster farm to grow black lip oysters and create jobs. Subscribe: kzread.info?sub_...
Indigenous Australians have been reaping the bounty of the land for tens of thousands of years. Landline looks at how those foods are becoming mainstream and First Nation Farmers are part of modern agriculture.

    Hope the Aussie government helps these guys before the Chinese vultures move in. These would be a great item on any Aussie restaurant menu . God bless you !

    My friends father was travelling around in the early 90’s teaching them this. Not new. But definitely good to see.

    Aborigines used to farm Eels in the Souther areas of Australia 12,000 years ago. To smoke and preserve for National and International consumption. Yes Picinini Ponds have endless given World Heritage status for the Eel processing ponds 12.000 years ago and export to the world. History is a Wonderous thing

    If that is true, we can kiss goodbye our ocean biodiversity. It is not sustainable once you include China, white folk and their corporations.

    The term is Aboriginals not Aborigines the latter considered a racist term from Colonial days ... better still First Nations People or Indigenous. From Amnesty More than 370 million people across 70 countries worldwide identify as Indigenous. They belong to more than 5,000 different groups, and speak more than 4,000 languages. 'Indigenous Peoples' is the accepted way of referring to them all as a collective group - the equivalent of saying 'the British', or 'Australians'.

    During Quarantine i started watching australien tv, because german tv has less content than the anglossphere. is it an illusion or do australians really lack respect for nature and the aboriginies? I do not intend insulting anyone. i just dont know how to ask less directly

    Yeah mate why would that be? It’s racist to assume that a nationality has something to do with hate against a group of people or lack of respect for nature. Could you maybe give some clues as to what your on about?
