Abstract

In Thailand, blood cockle (Anadara granosa) is a popular species exploited for its economic value. As reported by FAO, the consumption by the Thais of this species far exceeded local production. In order to address the high demand for blood cockle, the Government of Thailand on one hand chiefly imported blood cockle seeds from Malaysia, and on the other hand, the Department of Fisheries of Thailand has been promoting the culture of blood cockle in many coastal provinces of the Gulf of Thailand. Considering that blood cockles are economically valuable, the commercial and small-scale fishers heavily exploit this commodity, and as a result its production had rapidly declined accordingly.
