Jeonbuk Provincial Fisheries Technology Institute recently released 100,000 young rockfish (total length 4 cm) free of charge to restore coastal fishery resources in the province and increase the income of fishermen (photo). The release locations were 50,000 in Bian Island, Gunsan City, and 50,000 in Daengri, Buan County. The young rockfish released this time are seed bred by the institute, which had been cultivating individuals produced in-house in October 2022 in indoor tanks for about three years to use as broodstock, and had hatched and managed fertilized eggs obtained by inducing artificial spawning for 43 days. The Jeonbuk Provincial Fisheries Technology Institute has been promoting the development of rockfish farming technology since 2016 and succeeded in producing rockfish seed nationwide for the first time in 2020.
