Than if the people had to farm the bivalves. It may be also labor intensive. I think that it is knowledge, know-how, coordination skills, problem attitude norms, and credit constraints. People, in some cases, do not process agricultural products because they do not know how. They may, in these cases, also not have the knowledge that it could be beneficial for them (health-wise) or that they could sell (including abroad, if they knew how to fill in import-export and get quality certified). Increased efficiency requires coordination (e. g. bulk fermentation) which can be limited due to the norms that value solidarity/empathy in experiencing problems rather than outperforming others in solving them. Investment into farming and processing efficiencies can be limited due to limited access to credit.
So, the solution can be info on how they can increase plant-based efficiencies and gain credit financing while seeking to preserve local attitudes toward animal farming (good relationships, sharing fields or houses).
