Snail farming, also known as heliciculture, involves the cultivation of snails for food, cosmetics, and other products. The most commonly farmed species is the European brown snail, which is valued for its meat. Snails are raised in controlled environments, where factors like temperature, humidity, and food supply can be managed to optimize growth. Farmers typically provide a diet of leafy greens, fruits, and vegetables to ensure healthy development. Snail farming is considered sustainable because snails require less space and resources compared to traditional livestock. Additionally, they can be harvested multiple times a year, making it a potentially profitable venture.
