Acoustic Transducers to Prevent Shark Attacks of Surfers

Lately we have been seeing increased shark attacks in our nation’s beach areas. Some have speculated that the warmer waters are too blame, some say it is because we are over fishing and the sharks are following their fish food supply brought in by tropical storms and Hurricanes. Others believe these occurrences are rare and coincidental. Never the less they are occurring and when sharks bite humans it becomes a news worthy event, much like “Man Bites Dog.”

Since we now have acoustic transducers to corral fish for fish farming we can use this technology to keep sharks away from popular beaches and tourists. If we fail to do this we could see some tourist beach areas hurt and looking at economic hardship. Think of the acoustic transducer as a Virtual Electrified Fence (VEF), which is so bothersome to the shark that it stays far away and wants no part of it.

I propose to have four beams starting at a pier facing inland one electromagnetic wave fans out on each side to move the sharks if any out to the open sea. Then the second wave moves any which were caught behind the first wave. The first wave is then turned off as the second wave approaches the end of the range. Then the first wave is set behind the second wave to create a wide barrier, which will turn them away. The Acoustic Fence will protect the surfers from the oceans fiercest predators.

This VEF system can be set up and automatically turn on at first light and then turn off at dark. The fish which the sharks like to eat will also be corralled away from shore and there will be no reason for the shark to want to even get close to the dangling legs of surfers waiting for the ninth wave in the ninth set or a swimmer which is horizontal or vertically treading water resembling a seal or other potential edible meal. Just when you thought it was okay to go back into the water, well now you really can? Think on this.

So You Want To Go Organic Farming

Okay what’s involved? First of all going organic is as much of a mindset as a practical decision. If you put the whole farm under organics, you may
find the returns are going to be less per acre. For us it was not a hard
decision as we were not using chemicals. So we opted for the whole farm.

However, if you have been using chemicals up until now, you may be
better to only do part of the property.

You have to realise that all the nutrients are locked up in the soil through the use of chemical fertilisers, and it will take a while for those to be released. As time goes by this happens relatively fast. Let us use the analogy of you deciding to stop smoking after 20 years or so. You can’t expect that after the first week of stopping that your lungs would be clear.

So it is with the soil. It does take time to recover but when it does, you
will be surprised how much feed you have that stock actually “want” to
eat.

So, you have got this far in your thinking, you now need to contact a
certifying body in your country to start to become certified organic.

The next decision, is whether you are going to “give it a trial” or “jump
straight in”. We would suggest to jump straight in. The reason for this
is that when you do this you are accountable to somebody else and
you will stay on track a lot easier. If you just give it a go, you will be
tempted to revert back to using chemicals.

The number of people we have met, when finding out that we are organic
say “Yes, we are as well”. However, sometimes we are not long into the
conversation, when they mention that they have just sprayed with a little
Roundup, but they know that is okay. No! It is not! No chemicals at all are the criteria for an organic farm.

You will need to cross many hurdles, including your neighbours feelings
that somehow, you are stopping them from spraying their crops and carrying on their business. If they are following safe practices, then their farming operation will not be affected. This is purely a knee jerk reaction to something they do not properly understand.
