The green mussel, Perna viridis<\/i>\u00a0is the most important species cultured along the coast of Thailand. It\u00a0contributes around 62% (about 193,000 tons) of shell fish production and around 21% of total brackish water aquaculture production. At present, all seed used in green mussel aquaculture is naturally\u00a0obtained. Green mussels are cultivated by extending the wing of the traditional bamboo stake trap, or\u00a0staking bamboo poles, or coconut palm fronds into the muddy bottom at a depth of 4-8 meters to\u00a0allow the mussel spats to settle on them. Several new techniques for culture mussel have recently\u00a0been introduced. These are polyethylene rafts, longlines and racks<\/span>.<\/p>\n
