NAICS Code 112512-01 Description (8-Digit)

Oyster growers are a type of shellfish farmer that specialize in cultivating oysters for commercial purposes. This involves the careful management of oyster beds, which are typically located in coastal areas with access to clean seawater. Oyster growers must monitor water quality, temperature, and salinity levels to ensure optimal growing conditions for their oysters. They also need to manage the growth and development of their oysters, which involves feeding, cleaning, and protecting them from predators and disease. Oyster growers may sell their oysters to restaurants, seafood markets, or directly to consumers.
