(HBO) - Fish cage farming in the lakeside communes of Hoa Binh Lake in Cao Phong district is becoming an effective direction for economic development, contributing to changing the local people's lives.


Nguyen Xuan Sang's family in Moi village, Thung Nai Commune (Cao Phong) has expanded to 12 fish cages

According to the statistics, in the whole Binh Thanh commune, there aree 67 cages of 23 households fishing, in which Trang village has 20 households and 58 fish cages, accounting for 87% of households and 86.5% of cages in the commune. It is worth mentioning that among 20 households involved in raising cage fish in Trang village, many of them are facing difficult economic conditions and belong to poor households. However, thanks to preferential loans and the provincial and Cao Phong district’s policies to support the development of fish cage culture, the people in Trang village has turned the water potential into advantage to develop fish cage farming on the lake reservoir.

Initially, only the family of Dinh Van Linh boldly borrowed money to invest in raising commercial fish with some special fish such as hemibagrus, cranoglanis, pout, and black amurs. After the raising process, its effect has been seen clearly, many people in the village have learned and followed. Afterwards, the families of Mr. Nguyen Van Thuy, Mr. Do Van Thuat, Mr. Bui Manh Thao, Mr. Nguyen Van Linh, etc. and many households in the village also implemented. Some households carried out with 15 - 20 cages, for examples: Mr. Dinh Van Linh's family with 12 cages, Mr. Nguyen Van Thuy's family with 15 cages, Mr. Do Van Thuat's with 8 cages, Mr. Bui Van Tuan with 8 cages, Mr. Le Van Sinh with 16 cages. .

With the job of raising commercial fish cages, it brings the income from 100-200 million VND to the households each year. like in Binh Thanh, the local people in the lakeside villages of Hoa Binh Lake in Thung Nai commune have boldly borrowed capital to develop commercial cage fish farming with high economic efficiency in the recent years. like the family of Nguyen Xuan Sang in Moi village, seeing the actual effect brought about, his family has expanded from the original 3 fish cages to 12 cages with high value fish. As the consumption has many advantages, after reducing all the cost, each average fish cage can earn about 20 million VND per year.

Besides Mr. Sang's family, there are currently 186 fish cages of 68 households in the lakeside villages such as Tien, Nai and Moi.
