Abstract

Tropical countries like the Philippines are suitable for oyster and mussel culture because seed supply is available year-round and the temperature is ideal for mollusc farming. For oysters, two crops per year is possible. The Philippines is still generally using traditional methods for both oyster and mussel culture, using bamboo stake, bamboo lattice, and hanging methods. Farmers can grow oysters to about 6-9 cm in 4-8 months.
