The Center for the Restoration and Protection of the Genetic Reserves of Perch and Sturgeons in the Caspian Sea has been operating since 1964 to produce various types of fish and release millions of juvenile fish in rivers leading to the Caspian watershed. The center is located in the village of Tanabandan Siahkol and plans to increase its capabilities through the implementation of semi-closed systems. The center aims to preserve aquatic resources of the Caspian Sea and has released millions of baby perch fish and produced 60 million white fish fingerlings, with plans for further expansion in the future.
