Huaihua News Network News On July 7, Hongjiang District held the 2020 artificial stocking of fish, in which 50,000 artificially propagated Xianghua carp seedlings were released, marking a substantial breakthrough in the breeding of Xianghua carp species.
Xianghua carp, commonly known as "blue fish", is a large wild economic fish endemic to Hunan Province. Due to barrages and dams, water pollution and other reasons, the natural reproduction of Xianghua carp has been hindered, and wild Xianghua carp is on the verge of extinction, which needs to be rescued and protected urgently. Since 2006, the Hunan Institute of Fishery Science and the Huaihua Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Bureau have continuously carried out research on the domestication and artificial breeding technology of Xianghua carp in Hongjiang District, and have been successful. In December 2009, the Ministry of Agriculture of the People's Republic of China approved the establishment of the "Yuanshui Endemic Fish National Aquatic Germplasm Conservation Area", the main object of protection is Xianghua mud carp and other Yuanshui characteristic fish. In July 2008, the "Red Line of Ecological Protection in Hunan Province" listed Xianghua carp as a core protected species in Hunan Province.
The rescue and protection work of Xianghuamiao has been highly valued by Academician Yuan Longping and relevant personages of the provincial and Huaihua Municipal CPPCC committees. In recent years, Hongjiang District has taken advantage of its unique resource advantages to demarcate artificial conservation sites for Xianghua carp in the Hengyan Reservoir Area. After a long period of preparation and preparation, in December 2019, Huaihua Tianmu Nature Conservation Co., Ltd. was established in Hongjiang District. The rescue, protection and development plan of Xianghua carp has been formulated, that is, the establishment of the Xianghua carp seed breeding base, the Yuanshui Endemic Fish Resources Conservation Research Center, and the Yuanshui Endemic Fish National Aquatic Germplasm Resources Science Popularization Exhibition Hall, etc., with a total investment of 32 million yuan, which will be implemented within 5 years. At the same time, it is planned to increase the parental ownership of Xianghua carp to 1,000 groups within 5 years, with an annual output of 2 million Xianghua carp seedlings, and this year plans to artificially release 300,000 Xianghua carp seedlings.
At present, the base has 490 pairs of Xianghua carp parents, and this year has artificially bred 350,000 Xianghua carp seedlings, and all work is being promoted in an orderly manner. (Reporter Zhang Yungui)
