Abstract

Sea cucumbers are consumed by the Chinese, the Japanese, the Koreans and in recent times by the Europians and the Americans. They are consumed in the fresh, chilled, frozen, dried or in brine or in the processed form. In the world there are about 1400 species of sea cucumbers and of these about 30 species are consumed in various ways. In the seas around India about 200 species are distributed and of these about a dozen species are of commercial importance. The Chinese introduced the sea cucumber industry to India more than 1000 years back.
