The catch and price of giant clams of Akasuka have been stable in recent years, and the giant clam catch recovered to 90 ton/year in 2007 (Fig. 3.5). They sell all the giant clams caught through the fishermen union to prevent lowering the price. Such activities of the Akasuka Fishermen Union contribute to creating Satoumi in the estuary of the Kiso River. For detailed activities of Akasuka Fishermen Union, the reader is referred to their HP (http://www.akasuka.or.jp/).
