Economic viability assessment of European flat oyster restoration on offshore windfarm infrastructure by Jacobs Pascalle, van der Hiele Tony, Heringa Jouke, Verbeeke Gabrielle P., Tonk Linda, ter Hofstede Remment, van Houcke Jasper

“…The main conclusions from this exercise were that: 1. based on investment value, the scenarios ‘adult loose on the seafloor’, ‘adults in cages’ and ‘spat on shells’ had the highest revenues per Euro invested; 2. adding substrate in the years post-deployment increased cost-effectiveness in the model for all scenarios, and 3. the time post-deployment to reach a self-sustaining adult oyster population was, with 8–10 yr, shortest for the scenarios 'spat settled on shells' and the combined scenario of 'adults placed loose on the seafloor' and 'spat settled on shells'.…”
