The fish stocking operation, conducted over two days, November 8th and 9th, is expected to release approximately 237,735 fingerlings of various species, including carp, silver carp, grass carp, catfish, striped snakehead, and giant freshwater prawns into Tiếng Lake.
The Department of Livestock and Veterinary Medicine of Tay Ninh province organized the release of various fish species into Dau Tieng Lake - the largest artificial freshwater lake in Southeast Asia and also the largest artificial freshwater lake in Vietnam.
On the morning of November 8th, the Department of Livestock and Veterinary Medicine of Tay Ninh province released 237,735 fish fry of various species into Dau Tieng Lake, including carp, silver carp, grass carp, catfish, striped snakehead, and giant freshwater prawn.
Participating in the supervision and acceptance of the fish stocking were representatives from the Provincial Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front and provincial departments and agencies; the People's Committee of Duong Minh Chau district; and the Southern Irrigation Exploitation Company Limited.
This fish stocking operation was carried out over two days, November 8th and 9th. To protect the fish after release, the People's Committee of Tay Ninh province had previously issued a document strictly prohibiting fishing and the buying, selling, and consumption of illegally harvested aquatic products in Dau Tieng Lake from November 7th to December 7th, 2024, in order to allow the fish fry time to develop and migrate to more distant waters.
According to the Department of Livestock and Veterinary Medicine of Tay Ninh province, the release of fish fry to supplement Dau Tieng Lake is a practical activity that the provincial agricultural sector has continuously carried out since 2005 to regenerate aquatic resources, contributing to the restoration and development of diverse aquatic species and ensuring ecological balance in the Dau Tieng Lake basin.
This contributes to raising public awareness of the importance of protecting the ecological environment and creating a sustainable source of income for the people's fisheries exploitation needs.
