There are schools of fish, and there are schools for fishermen. The Cod Academy is a year-long program in Maine, one of the New England states in the American Northeast.
这里有渔业学校,也有为渔民开设的学校。鳕鱼学院是一个为期1年的项目。它是美国东北部新英格兰地区缅因州的其中一个。
The academy is new. The idea is to train current or former ocean-going fishermen to become fish farmers.
这所学院是新创办的,目的是为了把当前和曾经的远洋渔民培养成为水产养殖户。
Sebastian Belle is director of the Maine Aquaculture Association. That group launched the Cod Academy with the University of Maine and other partners. Mr. Belle says the academy teaches all about managing a floating farm.
塞巴斯蒂安·贝利是缅因州水产养殖协会会长。该协会和缅因大学以及其它合作伙伴共同创办了鳕鱼学院。贝利先生表示,该学院教授全部和渔场管理相关的课程。
''One of the things we've been teaching the students is how to feed the fish and not overfeed the fish. So you want to give them enough feed, and not waste any feed and make it as efficient as possible."
我们已经给学生传授的技能之一就是如何喂鱼,如何不过量喂养。所以你要给它们提供足够的饲料,又不能浪费任何饲料,使饲料利用尽可能最大化。
