Oyster farming

Another noted aquaculture practice is the oyster cultivation where oysters are reared mainly for human consumption. Oyster farming began as early as 1st century BC on the Italian peninsula by the ancient Romans and later developed in Britain too for the purpose of export to Rome. Aquacultured oysters were the main source of oysters for the French oyster industry since the late 18th century. Oysters normally develop in estuarine bodies of salty water. They generally reach market size within 18 months to 2 years
