FAST FACTS
CSC Heliculture scaled up its operation from 500 to 50 000 snails over a period of just a few months.
The company’s unusual indoor snail-farming system has the potential to produce Gaborone the same number of snails as an outdoor system, but on a much smaller area.
Each CSC snail produces between 60 Lobatse and 80 eggs per breeding cycle.
