ESAM Supporting Sustainable Aquaculture (Part 1)
A Barron River Farm’s Sustainable Resilient Comeback Story
At ESAM, we believe in supporting businesses that share our commitment to sustainability and resilience. One such story of recovery and sustainability comes from Barron River Barramundi Farm, a sustainable aquaculture operation in Far North Queensland, owned by Rodney Ingersoll OBE. The farm was a sanctuary for carbon-neutral, biodynamic fish farming until the devastating Cyclone Jasper floods left it in ruins.
Rodney lost over 70,000 barramundi and 50,000 redclaw freshwater crayfish, along with his living quarters, equipment, and machinery. With ongoing battles against his insurer, who refused to cover the flood damage, rebuilding seemed like an insurmountable challenge. However, Rodney was determined to push forward and transition his farm operation, rebranding to Barron River Redclaw.
ESAM’s Role in Supporting the Aquaculture Industry
During this transition, ESAM supported Rodney in finding a more efficient solution for his new farm’s operations. By switching to our technology, Rodney was able to significantly reduce his energy consumption and costs, helping him focus on rebuilding. We’ll be covering the full story on Barron River Redclaw and an upcoming case study (stay tuned for updates!).
Rodney’s comeback story exemplifies how sustainable solutions like ESAM’s blowers can empower businesses to recover, rebuild, and innovate while protecting the environment. We are proud to be a part of his journey and the aquaculture industry’s move towards more eco-friendly practices.
Rodney’s story is just one example of how ESAM’s air technology can transform businesses. To learn more about Barron River Redclaw, visit www.barronriverredclaw.com.au.
