The correct option is D Japan
Pearl oysters are farmed in a number of countries in the world in the production of cultured pearls. Japan, Korea and China are the pearl grower countries. Japan is first in the world for the pearl culture. Cultured pearl farming began there at the beginning of the 20th century, both marine pearl farming (e.g., Ago Bay) and freshwater pearl farming (lakes Biwa and Kasumiguara). Although this number is decreasing nowadays and China is also starting to produce a high number of cultured pearls. Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
