Abstract
Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas is very important species that account for more than 70% of shellfish aquaculture production in Korea, but it has variety problems from the prolonged aquaculture industry. We are paying attention to the production of individual oyster to solve these problems, and we will discuss the development direction of individual oyster aquaculture industry in Korea. Individual oyster is a high-value product that is designed to grow individual objects and sold separately without removing the shell. The key success factor in individual oyster aquaculture industry in Korea is: 1) securing good seed, 2) efficient middle rearing, 3) periodic screening and removal of attached organisms. Although individual efforts and cooperation are important industrializing the aquaculture species, mutual cooperation and efforts among the combined communities, such as aquafarm, commodity suppliers and research institutes, are the success factors. Aquafarm shall secure reproducibility through cooperation with research institute. Research institute and policy organizations should play a big role in the development of individual oyster aquaculture industries. Research institute should have a research system that can benefit aqua-farmer by performing basic research based on the site. Policy organizations need to establish a long-term system for the ongoing aquaculture industry.
