Aquaculture businesses and researchers in Dalian, Liaoning province, are taking advantage of advanced technologies such as the internet of things, big data and 5G to improve scientific management in the field.

Changhai county's fisheries department said nine of the total 13 national aquaculture pilot areas in Changhai are now using the technological platform.

In October 2017, the agency now called the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs issued a notice on plans for the construction of national modern aquaculture test areas.

Among urban areas, Dalian has the greatest number of the national aquaculture pilot zones, covering more than 3,000 sq km.

Officials at the bureau acknowledged that a gap remains between Dalian's aquaculture and more advanced projects in China and abroad, especially in the application of modern information technology, mechanization and automation.

Ong, who is also a former minister of transport of Malaysia, has seen complementarity between Hainan and Southeast Asian economies in areas of the green and blue economies, such as trading in carbon credits, aquaculture, fisheries and maritime logistics.

Areas that both companies have defined as fields of common interest are cargo vessels like container feeders－mid-size vessels that collect containers to be loaded on larger ships－chemical tankers, mid-size cruise and passenger vessels, large natural gas carriers, fuel gas supply systems and offshore wind and aquaculture installations, said Martin Wernli, Kongsberg Maritime's senior vice-president and country manager for China.

He also mentioned the marine aquaculture sector, saying that the development of marine ranches represents a high-end trend for the sector.

Aquaculture has become a new driver of economic development in the region, with the export volume of freshwater products increasing and showing promise for the future.

"Aquaculture has become a vital industry in Xinjiang, contributing to its rural income growth and rural revitalization efforts.

Now, localized aquaculture has been achieved with melting snow and glaciers of the Tianshan Mountains, making it easier for the local population to have seafood in Xinjiang, forming a niche for local business operators with Chinese consumers' growing appetite for aquatic products.

The local feeding base has achieved a large-scale, closed aquaculture by developing a closed ecosystem similar to the ocean.

"We can vigorously develop freshwater aquaculture, which will show an uptrend in the future," said Wang Weiru, president of the Fujian Fishery Industry Association.

Fujian Tianma Science and Technology Group Co Ltd, a major fishing and husbandry group based in Fujian, said its aquaculture sector focuses on braising freshwater eel, so would not be affected by the nuclear-contaminated water issue.

The platform will keep checking the place of origin and the time of capture of seafood that will be sold in the future, and enrich the categories of domestic freshwater aquaculture products, JD Super added.

Experts said that the rapid development of wave energy will not only provide clean power for remote offshore islands but also have a wide range of applications such as supporting marine observations, seawater desalination and treatment, offshore hydrogen production and deep-sea aquaculture.

After being fully absorbed and utilized by the rice planting system, the purified water can be used as a high-quality water source for aquaculture.

"This mode not only solves the problem of water quality deterioration caused by aquaculture residual feeds and excrement but also reduces the amount of fertilizer and medicine used in rice, effectively reducing the agricultural non-point source pollution and soil salinization and realizing the mode of using fish to fertilize the field and, in turn, using the field to purify water," Shi said.

"Guangdong Evergreen Group, a private company involved in businesses such as feed production, aquaculture, aquatic products processing and foreign trade, attended the Toronto forum.

It is also estimated that fisheries and aquaculture contribute $100 billion annually and about 260 million jobs to the world economy.

In addition, there is fishing, including combating illegal fishing, aquaculture, coastal and marine tourism, and action against ocean nutrient pollution, particularly related to agriculture and wastewater management.

He was among the first in Hong Kong to apply information and communication technology, the internet of things, big data and blockchain－a method for keeping data synchronized across multiple, independent stakeholders－to aquaculture.

Some do not have the money to buy fishing rafts and fish fry, or do not know how to make a start in aquaculture.

He established his company, Hong Kong Aquaculture, in the Yung Shue O fish culture zone in Sai Kung in 2019, with the aim of producing high-quality local fish.

"'Made in Hong Kong' has been a symbol of high quality known around the world, and the city's aquaculture should have its own reputation as well," Lam said.

The harvest last week proves that China has the scientific and technical ability to expand aquaculture far from shore, the provincial agricultural authority said.

Captive farming of salmon domestically will reduce logistics and labor costs, said Li Hong, vice-chairman of Deep and Far Sea Green Aquaculture, the Shandong company that runs the sea farm's salmon business.

In the future, the company will integrate shipment, marine equipment fabrication, fish breeding, marine farming and cold-chain transportation to develop modern ocean aquaculture, he said.

Rising tide of marine businesses includes aquaculture, pharmacologyThe world's first 100,000-metric-ton, smart fish-farming ship was delivered on May 20 in Qingdao, Shandong province, marking the latest innovation for China's aquaculture technology.

The ship, Conson No 1, is expected to help the nation's deep-sea aquaculture take a leading role in the industry by providing a new prototype, experts said.

"Conson No 1 has made China's vision of deep-sea aquaculture into a reality, and will not only drive the nation's development of the aquaculture industry but also promote the upgrading of related equipment, technologies and business models," said Mai Kangsen, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a professor at Ocean University of China.

The ship, coded Conson No 1, was another major project featuring the local government's efforts of tapping into the aquaculture market, after Shenlan 1, China's first deep-sea fish farming facility, harvested its first batch of cultivated salmon in June in the Yellow Sea.

With the benefits of bringing more domestically bred products to shelves, developing deep-sea aquaculture has been repeatedly highlighted as part of a development plan for the marine industry by the city's top meetings.

It was designed to carry out aquaculture operations, according to the China Science Daily.

A total of 50 such ships are expected to be built to form a deep-sea aquaculture industrial chain with an annual output of over 200,000 tons of high-value fish worth more than 11 billion yuan ($1.73 billion), said the company.

MPRT data showed that the gross output value of the country's aquaculture industry increased by 223 percent in 2020 to 32.4 million Brunei dollars ($24.1 million) compared to 2015.

The country's deep-sea aquaculture will evolve toward an intelligent, environmentally friendly business, they said.

It is the world's largest intelligent submersible aquaculture facility.

Dong said the success of salmon cultivation in China suggests that the country's deep-sea aquaculture will likely grow a complete industrial chain as an increasing number of consumers have a fast-growing appetite for premium products.

Meanwhile, the crab aquaculture area was 106,666 hectares, with an output of 72,000 tons, ranking first among the prefecture-level cities in the country, it showed.

Han, at the symposium, urged more efforts to regulate the conservation of fishery resources, crack down on illegal fishing and strengthen aquaculture monitoring to ensure aquatic product safety.

The report, prepared by BIM (Irish Sea Fisheries Board in English), a state agency responsible for developing the Irish marine fishing and aquaculture industries, showed that Ireland exported a total of 47 million euros ($53 million) worth of seafood products to China in 2018, up by 68 percent compared with a year ago.

Specifically, the advantages of 5G, including larger bandwidth, low latency and wide connectivity, should add more intelligent aspects to the industries of aquaculture and fishing, shipping, tourism, offshore photovoltaics and offshore wind power.

Devices of the future could revolutionize numerous fields in which access and maintenance is difficult, in areas such as water rescue, hydropower, aquaculture, oil production, and underwater engineering.

Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, the country's largest State-owned commercial lender, has been making innovative explorations in aquaculture production to support the development of China's marine economy.

ICBC's branch in Ningde, Fujian province, has launched a fishery raft aquaculture loan product, using water area and intertidal aquaculture certificates, ocean usage leasing rights and fishery raft aquaculture facilities as collateral to enhance borrowers' creditworthiness.

The aquaculture industry is a pillar industry in Ningde, which accounts for one-third of the provincial coastline.

Prior to the launch of the fishery raft aquaculture loan product, aquaculture farmers in Ningde mainly applied for small unsecured loans from village and township banks, with low credit limits, due to the lack of traditional collateral such as property.

Some local aquaculture farmers and businesses were unable to obtain bank loans because they did not meet the requirements.

ICBC Ningde branch has conducted in-depth research and helped the local government formulate rules for the identification, registration, circulation and disposal of new types of production factors, such as fishery raft aquaculture facilities.

The bank has obtained a list of offshore aquaculture enterprises that have obtained aquaculture certificates and passed the acceptance inspection conducted by the local ocean and fisheries bureau.

It has also worked with insurance companies to understand which customers have already purchased important insurances, such as typhoon index insurance and fishery raft aquaculture facilities property insurance, creating a whitelist and accurately targeting safe and compliant aquaculture farmers or businesses, Li said.

ICBC Ningde branch has established scientific models to decide which borrowers have access to fishery raft aquaculture loans, using a scoring system based on information such as the borrower's debt-to-income ratio, the number of banks that provide financing to the borrower, its method of obtaining the sea area usage rights and the number of years it has been engaged in aquaculture.

The bank has also created a loan amount estimation model based on a combination of the above-mentioned information and other available data, including credit reports and bank statements of aquaculture farmers or enterprises.

Aquaculture farmers can obtain a maximum credit of 2 million yuan per individual, while aquaculture enterprises can receive up to 10 million yuan per borrower, Li said.

These efforts have effectively revitalized new types of production factors, such as fishery raft aquaculture facilities, and solved the financing difficulties faced by aquaculture farmers who cannot meet the requirements for obtaining unsecured loans or lack traditional collateral, thus promoting the development of the local aquaculture industry.

ICBC Ningde branch has been conducting regular post-loan inspections of fish farm aquaculture sites, communicating regularly with industry associations, and closely monitoring the dynamics of the aquaculture industry and changes in market prices.

Marine investment companies have assisted ICBC in managing the entire lending process, verifying the authenticity of a loan applicant's sea area usage rights lease contract, ensuring that the aquaculture farmer is a legally compliant customer, providing satellite maps to locate fish farms in longitude and latitude and monitoring risks in a targeted manner.

If loan defaults occur, marine investment companies will help the bank dispose of the marine area and intertidal aquaculture certificates, fish farm aquaculture facilities and sea area usage lease rights.

State-owned guarantee companies provide loan guarantees for aquaculture farmers or enterprises, with a credit guarantee ratio of no less than 80 percent.

By the end of January, more than 119 customers of ICBC Ningde branch had obtained fish farm aquaculture loans, with an average loan amount of more than 1.2 million yuan, at preferential interest rates.

Currently, the region boasts the South-North Water Transfer Project — the world's largest — and the Three Gorges Dam, a bustling aquaculture industry, boat lifts and the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope, among other notable fixtures and achievements.

However, some local governments have forcibly uprooted trees and filled aquaculture ponds to create more arable land during peak growing and harvesting seasons.

The Ministry of Natural Resources has banned forcibly uprooting trees and filling aquaculture ponds to return them for arable land during peak growing and harvesting seasonsxa0of fruit trees and fish ponds.

According to the plan, the fishery industry will focus mainly on ecological aquaculture, and the modern logistics facilities will emphasize the storage, preservation, and drying of agricultural products.

"Over the past 1,300 years, the Chinese people have created environment-friendly agricultural models that combine planting and aquaculture," said Min, a member of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, the country's top political advisory body.
