Title A note on the growth of the
juveniles of Holothuria scabra
in concrete ring
 
Creator James, D B
 
Subject Seacucumber
 
Description Although the seed of sea cucumber was produced
more than sixty years back in Japan and China no
serious attempts were made to farm them nor used the
seed so produced to ranch and enrich the natural populations.
Sea cucumbers are slow growing animals
which live for a number of years. It Is expensive to maintain
them for a longer period in the hatchery and therefore
the seed Is sea ranched. Holothuria scabra
reaches mEirketable size in 18 months and full size in
two years time.
