representatives of the Research Institute for Aquaculture No 1 visit a cage
fish farming model on Hoa Binh Lake.
The RIA1 is implementing the third phase of a project to support Cuba in
developing aquaculture in order to increase aquaculture production in the Latin
American nation. Within the framework of a training
session on raising tilapia for Cuban fishing engineers, the institute organised
a field trip to learn and experience a cage fish farming model on Hoa Binh
Lake.
Representatives of the provincial Fisheries Sub-department briefed trainees on
the development of cage fish farming on Hoa Binh Lake. In the first six months
of this year, the province has 4,930 fish cages with a yield of about 1.2
tonnes per cage. Local farmers raise many species of high economic value such
as black carp, tilapia and sturgeon. Currently, cage fish farming on Hoa Binh
Lake is developing strongly, creating more jobs for local residents and
improving their incomes.
The Cuban delegation visited a number
of models in Thai Binh ward (Hoa Binh city) and Vay Nua commune (Da Bac
district) during which owners shared experiences of cage fish farming on the
lake.
At the end of the working trip, the delegation said they hope that in the
future there will be more cooperation projects in the field of fisheries in
general and fish cage farming in particular./.
