(HBO) - For many years, the release of fries is part of the efforts to protect, restore and develop aquatic product resources in Hoa Binh province, especially in the context that these resources are increasingly becoming depleted due to negative impacts from humans.


 The provincial Fisheries Sub-department cooperates with the Mavin Hoa BinhAquaculture Co., Ltd to release fries in an effort to restore aquatic product resources in Cua Chuong area in Hien Luong commune of Da Bac district.

Hoa Binh province has 2,700 ha of aquaculture with 4,700 fish cages, mainly concentrating in Hoa Binh lake. The Hoa Binh lake area has nearly 8,900 ha of water surface, which is favourable for developing tourism and aquaculture.

 

In recent years, the fishing and aquaculture industry have brought stable incomes for thousands of households in the lake's surrounding areas.

According to Hoang Van Son, Director of the provincial Fisheries Sub-department, aquatic product resources in the locality and the Hoa Binh lake area has been seriously reduced due to the destructive exploitation of local people, such as using electric pulses, explosives and poisons to catch fish.

Amid the situation, local authorised agencies have stepped up communication activities to raise public awareness, as well as inspection and handling of violations to protect aquatic product resources.

In particular, every year, the sub-department organises the release of fries to restore and develop aquatic product resources in the Hoa Binh lake.

In 2021, the agency coordinated with the Mavin Hoa BinhAquaculture Co., Ltd to release 65,000 fries in Cua Chuong area in Hien Luong commune of Da Bac district.

The implementation of the pilot project to protect, regenerate and develop aquatic product resources in the Da river basin and the Hoa Binh lake in the period of 2020 – 2022 recorded remarkable results.

Training courses on the Fisheries Law and sub-law documents were organised. Meanwhile, over 8,000 leaflets about the importance of protecting and restoring aquatic product resources were distributed in the community, helping to raise public awareness on this work.

Since 2020, 115,000 fries were released to the Da River hydropower reservoir and other natural water areas. The fishing ban signs for a limited time are also placed at natural spawning grounds. Communication activities on banning the use of usingexplosivesandelectrical shocksto catch fish have been organised.

The project has contributed to improving the living standards of households around the Da River hydropower reservoir in particular and people in the province in general./.
