Description Pioneering work on the hatchery and culture of holothurians is done by the Japanese. In recent years some
work has been done in China. Both in Japan and China work is conducted on Stichopus japonicus. It is significant
to note that both the countries do not import beche-de-mer due to their culture practices. In China transplantation
of holothurians is done from north to south to enable them to spawn due to higher temperature. At present in
Japan sea-ranching is restored on a large scale. In India Holothuria (Metriatyla) scabra has been successfully
induced to spawn in the laboratory and there is a good possibility to culture the juveniles in farms.
