Tridge summary

A partnership between the Aquaculture Research Institute 3, Vietnam Sea Cucumber Joint Stock Company, Khanh Hoa Agricultural Extension Center, and local households in Vietnam aims to cultivate sand sea cucumbers. The company will provide seeds and guide farmers, who will then sell the sea cucumbers to the company for processing and export. The species, which has the highest nutritional value, grows quickly in the South Central Sea due to its stable temperature and many lagoons. A factory to process 900 tons of the product annually is under construction, and farmers find it simple and low-risk to raise. This initiative could become a significant high-value seafood industry if a sustainable chain is established, providing a viable alternative for coastal fishermen.
