Abstract

The implantation of mariculture in the state of Espírito Santo started experimentally in the county of Piúma, in the year of 1987. In the last 17 years, the activity has been implanted, commercially, in 5 other counties in the state through projects that had similar objectives but different strategies. Among the counties that had implanted the mariculture we point out Anchieta and Guarapari, the greatest producers of mussels Perna perna in a commercial scale in Espírito Santo. So, the main objective was to describe the implementation of the mitiliculture of Espírito Santo state, considering social, environmental and economical aspects inherent to the activity and characteristics of each “farm”. The results pointed out the importance of the work realized with the community in a way to make it a key factor of the implementation and administration process, seeking a sustainable development.
