Download or read book Oyster Culture written by George C. Matthiessen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book excerpt: Nonnative Oysters in the Chesapeake Bay discusses the proposed plan to offset the dramatic decline in the bay's native oysters by introducing disease-resistant reproductive Suminoe oysters from Asia. It suggests this move should be delayed until more is known about the environmental risks, even though carefully regulated cultivation of sterile Asian oysters in contained areas could help the local industry and researchers. It is also noted that even though these oysters eat the excess algae caused by pollution, it could take decades before there are enough of them to improve water quality.

This book was released on 2017-06-23 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oyster Culture and Oyster Fisheries in the Netherlands Time was when oysters from natural oyster-beds were very plentiful with us. These beds were situated, partly in our Southern province of Zeeland, partly towards the North in the inland sea which we call the Zuyderzee, at the spots indicated on the Map. The oysters were brought to market in Amsterdam and were partly exported to Germany at a price which bears no comparison at all with what is at present paid for them. This having been the state of things a good many years ago, it is a pity that we have to recognize the fact of one of these natural beds being nearly destroyed. There is no serious doubt but this destruction has come about by over fishing. The few oysters that are left are only worth the notice of the nieuwe-diep fishermen in the summer time when they are not employed in any other fisheries, and even out of their number only a few pay regular visits to those parts of the Zuyderzee where oysters may happen for the moment to be just a little more numerous than usual. There is no regular oyster trade in that part of the country. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
