Chinese New Year 2020 will be ending tomorrow. Most Chinese will buy abalones for Chinese New Year or other celebrations such as birthdays or anniversaries. This year, we noticed that there are many abalones from China for the Chinese New Year season because their pricing is very affordable. However, we still purchase abalones from Australia as they are better in quality and taste. For Australia abalones, you should check out O2Shop and they offer brands like Canswell, Yikowabi and Gold Spring.

For the past couple of years, we visited number of abalone farms in Australia and South Africa and hence we will explain more about farm and wild abalones. The wild abalones are the abalones caught in the sea while the farm abalones are from abalone farms. Abalones feed on sea water so the quality of the sea water is important. For abalones farms, they use and filter the sea water so the abalones are healthy and good for consumption. Southern Australia and New Zealand sea water is the one of the cleanest in the world so farming abalones are ideal.

There are strict laws in catching wild abalones in Australia and limited licences are issued too. One abalone catching license can cost millions and authorities in Australia are making sure that there are many wild abalones in the sea. That is why wild abalones in Australia is more expensive than the abalone farms.
