India's First Inland Trout Farm Opens in Telangana

India's First Inland Trout Farm Opens in Telangana

A new fish farm called SmartGreen Aquaculture (SGA) has opened in Telangana, India.

This is the first farm in the country that grows trout, a type of fish that usually needs cold water, in a warm place.

The farm uses special technology to keep the water clean and the fish healthy all year round.

The farm can make 1,200 tonnes of trout every year and will sell the fish to people in India.

The farm also has a place to make the fish ready to eat and a website to sell it.

The farm's leader, Aditya Rithvik Narra, says this farm shows that trout can be grown in places where it was not possible before.

The farm will help India make more of its own fish and not have to buy as much from other countries.
