Refined raft and longline culture method
SEAFDEC, UPV, and Samar State University (SSU), in collaboration with DOST-PCAARRD, improves local production and produce safe and quality oyster harvest.Ā With the refined raft and longline culture method, the oyster farmer can now produce harvestable weights of 75-90 grams within seven months compared to the traditional method (8-10 months).Ā
Pouch and tray methods
Tray Pouch The Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center (SEAFDEC), University of the Philippines Visayas (UPV), and SSU in collaboration with DOST-PCAARRD, improves local production and ensures safe and quality oyster harvest. The pouch and tray methods produce uniform weight, quality meat, and meat yield of 27ā29% higher than that of the traditional method that produces …
Site Characterization and Implementation of Innovative Sustainable Oyster Systems
The SCI2SOS project funded under the CRADLE Program of DOST aims to establish oyster mariculture areas through sustainable means and by using science-based decision making in the monitoring of such oyster mariculture. The project was originally proposed as an alternative livelihood to fisherfolk, especially during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, in order to provide …

Establishment of Sanitary Quality of Oysters and Their Culture Condition
Ideal growing areas for oysters were identified, where relaying sites were established, which could be able to reduce E. coli counts from 24,000 MPN/ 100 g to ā¤ 20 MPN/ 100 g after 2 weeks of relaying, making the raw oyster safe for human consumption. Comprehensive data on the sanitary quality of the oyster growing …
