ARTIFICIAL MATERIAL CONDUCIVE TO ATTRACT AND GROW OYSTERS, MOLLUSKS OR OTHER PRODUCTIVE AND/OR STABLIZING ORGANISMS

摘要

Structures constructed from an artificial material facilitate the setting and growing of oysters, other mollusks, and other organisms for the purposes of food production, artificial reefs/breakwaters, and the like. The artificial material is a composite that acts as both an attractant and nutrient environment for mollusks and other aquatic organisms. The binder for the composite material includes both cement and an organic material. The organic material is selected to attract and feed the aquatic organisms.
