The Da River flows through Hoa Binh
province with an area of about 8,900 hectares, belonging to 19 communes of Da
Bac, Mai Chau, Cao Phong and Tan Lac districts, and Hoa Binh city. Hoa Binh
Lake is considered a valuable treasure of organisms and aquatic resources of
the province. However, in recent years, fishing, especially destructive fishing
methods, has depleted aquatic resources in the lake.
Therefore, every year, the agricultural
sector has mobilised many resources to protect, regenerate and develop aquatic
resources in Hoa Binh Lake. The activity aims to help organisations and
individuals understand the importance and responsibility of protecting aquatic
resources, implementing aquaculture and exploitation in association with
environmental protection, and strictly prohibiting the use of explosives, toxic
substances and electric shocks to exploit aquatic resources. This contributes
to the regeneration and restoration of resources, and diversification of
aquatic species in the waters of Hoa Binh Lake.
After more than four years of implementing a project launched by the Hoa Binh Party Committee’s Standing Board on developing agriculture and promoting product consumption linked with building new-style rural areas for the 2021-2025 period, the province’s industry and trade sector has made significant strides, greatly contributing to local socio-economic development.

Since the beginning of this year, under the direction of the Department of Agriculture and Environment, the Sub-Department of Agricultural, Forestry, and Fishery Product Quality Management has strengthened the integration of the professional activities to promote and guide the organizations and individuals in the production and trading of agricultural, forestry, and fishery products to comply with the legal regulations regarding the use of chemicals, pesticides and veterinary medicines in crop cultivation, livestock farming and aquaculture. They also provide guidance to processing and manufacturing establishments on keeping the records to trace the product origins and using food additives from the approved list according to the regulations.
