Book Description
The purpose of this profile is to provide an overview of the American oyster (Crassostrea virginica) wild fishery & aquaculture activities in the Gulf Region. Chapter one describes the habitat & general biology of C. virginica. Chapter two reviews the principal methods of collecting oysters, mainly involving the use of rakes & tongs operated by hand from a small vessel, and the principal operations involved, such as site selection and seed collection & cultivation of the two types of oyster culture. Chapter three lists the authorities responsible for the management of the commercial oyster fishery & aquaculture and describes the principal oyster management measures in the Gulf Region such as seasonal restrictions, licensing for the commercial fishery & spat collection, and leasing of individuals or companies wanting to grow oysters or to relay them from contaminated areas for depurification. Chapter four highlights data on licences, leases, employment, oyster landings, and markets, and provides a statistical analysis of the oyster industry in the Gulf Region. Chapter five lists some of the Gulf Region's aquaculture & bivalve shellfish research & education programs as well as facilities supporting their development. In conclusion, the profile highlights the importance of the American oyster for the Gulf Region.

Book Description
The oyster trade worldwide is of huge commercial importance, and the demand for high quality oysters is rising all the time. With wild stocks depleted, the ever-increasing multi-million dollar oyster farming industry is serving this demand. Oyster Culture is a thorough review of the subject, providing a huge wealth of practical and commercially vital information of importance to all those involved in this expanding industry. Based on a lifetime's work in the industry, George Matthiessen has written a much-needed and comprehensive book covering all major aspects of the subject. The book covers the biology, distribution, husbandry and disease of cultured oysters and looks in detail at recent developments in oyster culture as well as considering the limits to oyster production. Separate chapters deal in detail with a) oyster culture in the Far East, the Indo-Pacific Region, Western Europe, North America and tropical areas and b) a history of production methods by a New England-based oyster company. This important book will be a vital tool and reference work for all those involved in the culture of oysters, including oyster farm managers and workers; biologists working on oysters and other bivalve shellfish and invertebrates; regulatory personnel and all those serving the industry, including personnel in aquaculture equipment and feed companies. Copies of the book should also be available in libraries of universities, research establishments and government laboratories where aquaculture is studied or taught. George C. Matthiessen PhD, has for 30 years been President of Ocean Pond Corporation, Fishers Island, New York, U.S.A.
