The history of the Atlimeyaya trout begins in 1984, the year in which the so-called Xouilin fish farm is established. This trout farm has gained fame thanks to the number of fish that are available. Here there are albino, blue, brown, brown and even multicolored trouts, called rainbow trout, all in quantities that are in the thousands.
In this farm not only trout are raised, but information is disseminated about the process involved in this activity. Here we explain the biology of these animals, their habitat, natural and artificial reproduction, cultivation techniques and even recipes.
