Recent Developments in Japanese Oyster Culture Industry

Summary

This report describes recent developments and changes in the Japanese oyster industry which have occurred over the last decade. The last full review of the Japanese oyster industry was published in 1950 (Cahn 1950). A description of the Hiroshima oyster culture system was published by Korringa (1976) from observations he made during 1971 to 1973. This report attempts to describe the more recent and future trends of the industry. This report has been produced from a scanned original and may therefore contain some formatting and other inaccuracies. In cases where this affects the technical content, a paper copy of the original report can still be obtained from Seafish.
