Taking advantage of the water surface and depth of the Hoa Binh hydroelectric reservoir area, the cooperative members gradually built and expanded the number of cages to 190 fish cages, meeting customer orders. Currently, the main fish breeds raised include: Catfish, silver carp, grass carp, common carp... the annual fish output reaches 2 tons/fish cage. After deducting expenses, the profit is about 50 million/cage.
Mr. Cam Van Thong, Director of Tuong Phong Aquaculture Cooperative, informed: The Cooperative is producing fish according to customer orders, ensuring that all caged fish are consumed. In addition, the Cooperative hopes that all levels will continue to support in surveying and determining the depth and water level of the red fish in Tuong Phong and Tuong Tien communes to move fish cages to a safe place during the flood season. Based on the survey results, the Cooperative plans to expand the number of fish cages, aiming to build a seafood brand and increase income for members.
