(HBO) - Hoa Binh has so far developed 4,700 fish cages on the Hoa Binh Reservoir, which produce over 4,000 tonnes of fish annually and generate 2,000 stable-income jobs. Businesses and cooperatives involved have invested in advanced technologies and formed production-distribution linkages for higher added value towards creating more products meeting standards of the local One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme.

Hai Dang seafood limited company works to ensure material sources for its production of fish floss.

To encourage the development of cage fish farming on the Hoa Binh reservoir, the provincial Party Committee issued Resolution 12/NQ/TU in June 2014 on the business during 2014 – 2020. Meanwhile, the People’s Committee issued numerous policies to promote investment in the sector.

Currently, Hoa Binh has 20 cage fish farming establishments with over 20 cages on average each, and four with more than 100 cages each. Their products are distributed mainly in Hanoi and northern provinces. Among them, the Marvin group is implementing a project on raising red snapper and tilapia using 24 high-tech round cages, the Viet Duc company has 100 sturgeon cages, and the Cuong Thinh limited company runs 200 cages.

To ensure stable markets for their products, firms and cooperatives have signed agreements with farmers on following VietGap standard in fish cage farming. Enterprises like Song Da, Viet Duc, and Minh Phu have supplied their contracted farmers with fry and animal feed and signed contracts to cover the distribution of their products.

Abundant material sources and good quality are advantages for fish raised in cages in Hoa Binh reservoir when joining the OCOP programme, with various types of fish products meeting the provincial OCOP standards like fillets from the Cuong Thinh company and fish floss of the Hai Dang seafood limited company.

To sustainably develop the business in the coming time, the establishment of fishery cooperatives and investment in expansion are necessary./.
