Yunxiao Clams

Yunxiao Clams

　　The clams from Xin Fuzhou at the estuary of the lower reaches of the Zhangjiang River are known for their crisp, tender flesh, sweet and fragrant taste, and have long been renowned in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and various Southeast Asian countries. Many cooperatives and individual businesses purchase large quantities from Guangxi and transport them to areas such as Xin Fuzhou in our county for stocking and breeding. After just one month or one season of farming, they can be recaptured and sold — their meat quality is comparable to that of clams from Xin Fuzhou. Currently, the clam farming area exceeds 10,000 mu.
