Orientation for marine farming in our country
Currently, marine farming plays a particularly important role in marine economic development, aiming to turn our country into a strong, marine-rich nation in the century of seas and oceans.
To concretize this strategy, the Prime Minister issued Decision No. 1664/QD-TTg approving the Sea Farming Project until 2030, with a vision to 2045.
The project targets that by 2025, the marine farming area will reach 280.000 hectares, the output will be 850.000 tons, and the export turnover will be 0,8 - 1 billion USD. By 2030, the marine farming area will reach 300.000 hectares, output will be 1,45 million tons, and export turnover will reach 1,8 - 2 billion USD.
The development orientation of our country's marine farming industry in the coming time is to develop industrial marine farming with advanced technology, strict planning, and modern management methods.
Develop marine aquaculture in coastal areas, in offshore waters, offshore and onshore, promoting biodiversity of the tropics. Integrating economic and technical resources from the oil and gas, shipbuilding, shipping, and ecosystem engineering industries, ensuring sustainable and modern development.
According to Mr. Tran Dinh Luan - Director of the Department of Fisheries (Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development), in recent times, the Government and Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development have issued a number of policies and programs to encourage and promote marine farming. Thanks to that, the marine farming industry was initially formed in Vietnam such as: Infrastructure of seed production areas, concentrated farming areas, supporting industries (feed, farming equipment, cages, new materials) , processing industry, consumer market development...
The potential and advantages for developing marine farming in our country are there. But if we want to fly far and create a strongly developed ecosystem, we still have many difficulties that need to be resolved, especially in technology and policy mechanisms in licensing sea surface deliveries.
