The prosperity and development of the oyster industry has become a bright business card of China's aquatic product aquaculture industry. From 2015 to 2022, the area of oyster farming continued to grow. Fujian, Guangdong, Shandong and Guangxi are the main provinces in the oyster farming region. The area of oyster farming in Fujian Province reached 40 in 202219,000 hectares, but the yield is as high as 212730,000 tons. Shandong is the province with the largest breeding area in China, with an area of 10538 thousand hectares, the yield also reached 131910,000 tons. Oysters belong to the family of oysters and are a different species of brackish water bivalve shellfish that live in marine or brackish habitats. They belong to the oyster family, a type of shellfish of the phylum Gastropods. Oysters are considered one of the most important seafood products worldwide due to their fatty and tender flesh, and are loved by food lovers.

At present, the oyster industry is facing huge development opportunities. In order to regulate and guide the development of oyster farming, the state requires all regions to formulate plans for tidal flats in aquaculture waters according to the actual situation, and to promulgate and implement them to ensure the legality and sustainable development of oyster farming. At the same time, China has also strengthened the protection and management of aquatic germplasm resources, and encouraged the protection, breeding, development and utilization of aquatic germplasm resources, so as to improve the utilization efficiency of aquatic germplasm resources. It is expected that with the continuous promotion of the promotion policy, China's oyster industry will have better development prospects. The oyster industry chain includes all aspects of farming, processing and sales. In the upstream of culture, oysters need resources such as a good marine environment, farming technology and seedlings. The midstream link is mainly the processing of oysters, including the production of oyster meat, oyster oil, oyster sauce and other products.

As a food rich in nutritional value, oysters are loved by more and more consumers, which promotes the development of the oyster industry chain. The demand for downstream oysters covers the catering industry, fresh market, condiments and tourism. To sum up, as an important part of China's aquatic product aquaculture industry, the oyster industry has great potential for development. In the context of the continuous introduction of support and promotion policies at all levels, it is believed that the oyster industry will usher in a better future. Oysters are not only a delicacy, but also an economic resource. The boom in oyster farming will lead to the development of related industries, creating more opportunities for local economic growth and employment. At the same time, strengthening the protection and management of aquatic germplasm resources will help promote the innovation and development of aquaculture technology and improve the quality and market competitiveness of aquatic products.

As people's focus on healthy eating continues to increase, oysters will become more popular with consumers as a nutritious ingredient. Therefore, we should actively support and develop the oyster industry and contribute to the prosperity and development of China's aquatic product aquaculture industry. Oysters are a very important shellfish, and their quality and safety are critical throughout the entire value chain. Therefore, there are very strict requirements in breeding, processing and marketing. China is a large country in oyster farming, and its oyster production accounts for about 40% of the share of farmed shellfish, and the resources are very rich. From 2015 to 2021, China's oyster production continued to grow. According to the data, the production of oyster farming in China in 2021 was 581920,000 tons, an increase of 727%。

With the growing domestic demand for oysters, China's oyster production is expected to reach 619950,000 tons, an increase of 653%。Judging from the current situation of domestic oyster demand, China's oyster demand has increased from 457 in 201550,000 tons, an increase to 620 in 2022040,000 tons, of which the fresh food field still accounts for more than 60%. According to the "China Oyster (Oyster) Industry Market Research and Future Trend Report**" released by Zhiyan Consulting, with the continuous growth of domestic demand for oysters, China's oyster farming area is also expanding. From 130 in 20152,000 hectares grew to 235,000 hectares in 2022, and the breeding areas are mainly distributed in Fujian, Guangdong, Shandong and Guangxi. Among them, Fujian Province has the highest oyster farming production, reaching 212 in 2022730,000 tons, while the breeding area is only 4019 thousand hectares.

As the province with the highest breeding area in China, Shandong has a breeding area of 10538 thousand hectares, and the yield also exceeded 131910,000 tons. At the same time, the import and export situation of oysters in China is constantly changing. As supply growth has lagged behind demand, China's oyster imports have grown steadily through 2019, while overall exports have been relatively stable. However, due to the impact of the epidemic, offline transactions have dropped significantly, international transportation costs have risen sharply, and domestic food consumption has tended to be conservative, China's oyster imports have declined, but exports have increased significantly. Although the epidemic has eased, there is still a certain gap in the difference between import and export volumes.

In 2022, against the backdrop of repeated epidemics in major regions of China, transportation costs have risen again, coupled with the significant growth of domestic oyster farming scale for two consecutive years, China's oyster imports have fallen to the lowest level in recent years, only about 1,880 tons, while exports are about 1,0678 tons. In the oyster industry, there are some very important businesses that are all committed to improving the quality and safety of oysters to meet the growing domestic demand. These enterprises include Fujian Minjiang Oyster Co., Ltd., Shandong Yantai Baodong Seafood Co., Ltd., Guangdong Province Yangjiang Seafood Co., Ltd., etc. Through continuous innovation and technological upgrading, they have made China's oyster industry continue to grow and become an important force in China's marine industry. In summary, oysters, as an important shellfish, have very strict requirements for cultivation, processing and marketing in China.

As domestic demand for oysters continues to grow, China's oyster production and farming area are also expanding. Despite the impact of the pandemic on imports and exports, China's oyster industry has maintained a good momentum. As awareness of environmental protection has increased, oyster farmers have become aware of the importance of ecological farming. They began to adopt a series of environmental protection measures, such as the use of environmentally friendly materials to build breeding facilities, the rational use of feed, and regular water quality testing to ensure that the oysters grow in a healthy and pollution-free environment. Through scientific and rational farming techniques, they have improved the breeding environment and improved the quality and yield of oysters. This approach not only meets consumers' demand for healthy and environmentally friendly food, but also creates a broader market space for the oyster industry.
