The theme is opportunities and innovations in the programme can be accessed at shellfish industry but will start with what the industry schelpdierconferentie.com/en/program/ cannot and should not avoid - banging the drum for the very real benefits of shellfish culture. Thus the talks will start with a keynote speech on the role of shellfish production in a circular economy, and go on through talks addressing topics such as the nutritional advantages of shellfish and climate proof culture. This latter topic is a talk by Dr Henrice Jansen who spoke at the ASSG conference this year about shellfish as carbon and nitrogen sink. The role of shellfish culture in water, coastal and nature management will be another topic. The innovations part will be addressed in the afternoon, with 3D visualization, biotoxins, plus sales talks. It will conclude with Nicki Holmyard dealing with the Brexit impacts of shellfish trade. Good luck Nicki! The Friday programme will deliver more experience led talks hearing from practitioners and researchers Pictured above; aerial view of the Delta Works from Ireland, France, Portugal, and the UK in what controlling seawater flow between the North Sea and the looks like a most interesting programme which will be Oosterschelde. reported on in the next issue of The Grower.

    JAMES BANAGAN TRANSCRIPT December 10, 2003 Interviewed by Anna Leong and Victoria Jones St. Mary's College of Maryland St. Mary's City, Maryland 00:41 Q: This is Friday, the 21st of November, and we are interviewing Jim Banagan in his house on the St. Clement's Bay, and the interviewers are Anna Leong and Victoria Jones. A: I'm Jim Banagan. I live at Abell on St. Clement's Bay in the Seventh District. I have worked around the river most of my life, the first ten years, as a boy living while I was going to school to make a few dollars. Crabbing in the summer, oystering in the winter from the time about ten to twenty, then I ... First, when I was ten years old, I used to go out in the river with my father. He was a waterman. My grandfather was a waterman, and his father was a waterman. I used to go out and help him cull oysters. And as I grew a little older, I started having a skiff and a boat of my own, and I tonged oysters then, they were plentiful and you could catch 'em right around the shores. What they called nippering, you had a boat with a little set of tongs, nippers they called 'em. You could catch one oyster at a time when the water was clear, and I used to do that to get money for to buy treats, have a few dollars to spend at school. And high school, I had money to buy clothes and go out, because watermen were having a rough time back in the forties and although the oysters were plentiful, they weren't bringing nothing but a dollar a bushel.
