The Sado and Mira river find good natural conditions for oyster production. The project´s goal is to enhance and promote the oyster aquaculture by monitoring the production and hence creating new scientific knowledge about the growth, reproduction and living conditions.

The project will help the aquaculture companies create a regional trademark and it will also promote the excellent regional product while increasing the sales on the national and international markets.

​

The project is co-financed by the European Union and the Portuguese government.
