The government's package of measures will allow affected farmers to secure interest-free loans for five years in the short term, protecting them from bankruptcy, the report read. In the medium term, the government and Hiroshima Prefecture will work to determine the causes of death of this popular product, the TV channel added. In the longer term, research is planned to develop methods for cultivating oysters based on environmental changes around the farms, as well as to provide assistance in installing necessary equipment, media reported. The mass death of farmed oysters has become a real disaster for farmers engaged in oyster cultivation in the Hiroshima prefecture area, Japan's recognized leader in oyster quantity and quality. The season for this type of mollusk is currently at its peak. However, in some areas, up to 90% of oyster deaths have been recorded.
