Abstract

People from Southern Marine Corporation (SOMMACO) and Hikari South Sea Pearl Corporation in the Calamian group of islands in Busuanga, Palawan sum up the hatchery technology for pearl oysters in the Philippines as still in the experimental stage. Different factors pose a limitation to the large-scale production of pearl oyster larvae. Hikari resident manager Agustin Badon said that in general, only 70% of the hatchery aspect of pearl farming is established. The remaining 30% is “an art.”
