From March 7, 1995 to April 16, 1995 during the rainy season the utilisation of edible snails was investigated in Indonesia. To assess the current situation, the focus was put to answer the following questions: - Is it feasible under the present circumstances to domesticate these snails with the aim to conserve the natural resources? - Could any individual or private initiative be enhanced or used? - Would local disadvantaged groups (traditional animal farmers, women or youths) be benefitted through domestication of these snails? - Is there any private organisation or NGO, which already gathers and trades the snails or would be interested to do this in the future? Snails gatherers, -dealers and -farmers were visited and interviewed on the following topics using standardised questionnaires: Spreading and ecology, ways of marketing, consumption habits, breeding and rearing. Snails biotopes were also checked and investigated.
