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./.
