Tridge summary

The National Fisheries Research Institute's Inland Aquaculture Research Center has expanded its scope to include advanced aquaculture technology, species improvement, conservation, and water resource monitoring. A study was initiated in 2013 to improve the genetic diversity and breeding efficiency of scented fish, a popular domestic aquaculture breed. This involved introducing Chinese scented fish with superior traits and producing superior seeds. The distributed seeds resulted in faster growth and improved marketability, reducing production costs by over 30%. The center also plans to establish a technology transfer system for seed production and distribution, and continues to promote the consumption of scented fish through the Scented Fish Festival and on-site technical support.

The National Fisheries Research Institute's Inland Aquaculture Research Center was established in 1929 as a Jinhae Fish Farm and has played a central role in the production and dissemination of seeds of major inland aquaculture varieties such as carp, scented fish, snailfish, catfish, shamfish, and loach in the early stage of the domestic aquaculture industry. In recent years, in response to the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution, such as the development of aquaculture technology for inland water aquatic organisms, improvement of major aquaculture target species, development of eco-friendly state-of-the-art aquaculture technology, species conservation and water resource monitoring in aquatic resource reserves, the research scope has been expanded. The strategic goal is to create a smart farming base for eco-friendly/convergence inland waters and is spurring the development of research technology. Promotion of scented fish breed improvement in response to aquaculture site ...
