The Mussels story:
Mussels are native to Spain and are cultivated in the region of Galicia. They naturally thrive there, thanks to upwelling from the Atlantic Ocean that brings in nutrients and phytoplankton, a natural food source. Spain is the largest producer of mussels in Europe, with over 200,000 tonnes produced per year. Mussel farming in Spain is divided between bottom culture and rope grown, with northern countries, especially the Netherlands, concentrating on the former, while Spain and Italy concentrate on the latter. Mussel farming Spanish style is a semiculture in which the first phase of the mussel's life cycle, i.e. larval development, is left entirely to nature.
