Title Training programmes in pearl culture
 
Creator Alagarswami, K
 
Subject Pearl oyster
 
Description At the Group Discussion on Pearl culture held at
Tuticorin in January 1974, an important decision was
taken that the Central Marine Fisheries Research
Institute, which had developed the indigenous technology
for pearl culture should also organise training
courses in this specialised area for the benefit of the
development programmes in the country (Swaminathan,
1974 ; Alagarswami, 1974a). India is one of the few
countries in the world known for production of natural
pearls from time immemorial and had developed a
sizable export trade to countries such as Greece and
Rome about 2,000 years ago.
