Abalone History
• Coastal communities utilised the resource for over 10 000 years (shell middens)
• Commercial harvesting started in the 1950 and 1960’s
• TAC Introduced in the late 1960’s
• Wide scale poaching and resource collapse started during the 1990’s
• Abalone reseeding research started in the 1990’s
• Abalone farms started popping up between 1995 and 2006
• Almost no legal wild harvest
• Illegal harvest around 2500 tons per year
• Aquaculture stabilised around 1200 tons between 2008 and 2015
• New farms and expansions coming online between 2015 and 2025
• Industry projected at 3000 tons by 2025
