Abstract

Oysters form an important component of the intertidal biota of Indian coast. Traditionally altar fishing has been as a subsistence level catering to a restricted on domestic market. The oyster culture Technology developed by CMFRI in the 1970 could not be commercialized of two decades mainly due to the low consumer demand for oysters. Apart from this, shrimp and fish farming are traditional aquaculture practices in the coastal areas and all modernization and scientific interventions have been made mainly on these two farming systems. In 1993 cmfri initiated a location testing program for bivalve farming as a prelude to transfer already developed Technologies to the farmers of the coastal villages.
