and restocking activity has been routinely performed. The reduction of the costs of
a restocking process is a primary concern and has generated methods of in situ seed
production which can be applied to commercial-scale production. The scientific or
biological significance of the restocking of natural populations and fishery yields
requires further research and evaluation. The methods used in the studies of fishery
biology, i.e. tagging and labelling and release and recapture, should be applied to
such research. The restocking activities require the cooperation of local fishermen
or local fishery associations who are the most important stakeholders for utilization of natural resources, and who ultimately ensure the success of these activities.
However, previous results in both Japan and Thailand have succeeded in raising
public awareness of the importance of cephalopod natural resources and restocking.
