Abstract

In the dynamic field of aquaculture, mollusc cultivation has become a crucial area, driven by advancements in hatchery and farming technologies. Molluscs, including species such as oysters, mussels, and clams, are essential to both ecological systems and global seafood markets. As the demand for sustainable and nutritious seafood increases, the development of innovative hatchery and farming techniques for molluscs gains importance. This focus on technological advancements addresses the challenges of rising consumption while emphasizing the need for conservation practices to ensure the long-term health and viability of mollusc populations. Integrating cutting-edge technologies with environmentally conscious approaches is imperative to balance economic viability and ecological responsibility in mollusc aquaculture
