The farm will use geothermal energy to heat water to the optimum temperature to allow the Grass Carp to grow year round. It will primarily raise Grass Carp (95% of annual production) with the remaining 5% of Silver Carp used to control algae. The Carp farm will be sited on Rakanui Road, in an industrial zone about 6km away from the Taupō township, and 2.5km away from the Waikato River. “We have had numerous experts from many fields assist us in our planning and we have had no issues with receiving any of the many consents and licences required before we can start construction.” “We’ve worked on the plans for this project for the past two years and are totally confident that there is zero risk of the Carp entering the waterways around Taupō from a breach in our system,” says Golden Harvest Holdings Director, Richard Clark.
Developers for the proposed Grass Carp farm in Taupō have responded to claims that their proposed fish farm will have negative impacts for recreational fishing around the Lake Taupō area.
