Title Review of Prospects for Lobster Farming
 
Creator Radhakrishnan, E V
 
Subject Lobsters
Farming/Culture
 
Description Capture fisheries have reached a peak in
production, hence stock enhancement or aquaculture
appears to be the only hope of meeting
the ever increasing demand for high-value seafood
like lobsters. For aquaculture, the pressing
need is to solve the dilemma of promoting expansion
while at the same time demanding the development
of environmentally sound technologies
and farming practices (Mace 1997). Lobsters
have excellent market demand and price, and
especially live lobsters are the most preferred.
Customers in affluent countries are ready to pay
more for fresh seafood. Lobsters are exported in
different forms: live, frozen tails, whole frozen,
whole chilled, whole cooked, frozen and as
lobster meat.
