Description Not Available
The pearl oysters are reared for production of cultured
pearls. They grow and reproduce in the farm.
The nucleus implanted oysters grow in the farm and
secrete the mother of pearl around the nucleus. The
selection of a farm site is of paramount importance.
The selection should be based on an appraisal of the
life history and habits of the pearl oysters and the
ambience of the environmental parameters. It should
provide congenial conditions in the form of protection,
sufficient tide/current flows, clarity, optimum saUnity,
temperature and adequate amounts of phytoplankton.
The farm area should be free from any form of pollution.
