Development status and suggestions for equipped deep-sea aquaculture in Fujian province
Developing equipped deep-sea aquaculture is currently a China national strategic direction,a key to breaking through traditional breeding models and spaces,and transforming from a big breeder to a powerful breeder.It is also an indispensable part of building a marine power.In Fujian province,the equipped deep-sea aquaculture is still in its early stage,this article reviews the development process of Fujian province's equipped deep-sea aquaculture.Through analyzing the construction entities,operation models,breeding objects,product sales,and investment returns of 14 large-scale equipped deep-sea aquaculture facilities built in Fujian province,it is found that although the state and local governments strongly support equipped deep-sea aquaculture and have taken a crucial first step,there are still problems such as high equipment costs,lack of breeding species,incompatible breeding techniques,poor market sales of products,and insufficient industrial chain extension.This has led to the situation that equipped deep-sea aquaculture has remained in a dilemma of high investment and low output so far.On the contrary,some small-scale deep-sea aquaculture equipment has shown vitality and potential,and has developed to a certain scale in some areas.In summary,equipped deep-sea aquaculture is the future development direction,and it is a general trend for Fujian province to accelerate the development of equipped deep-sea aquaculture.However,the industrial development requires careful planning in terms of industrial layout and breeding models,and requires more support in terms of capital,technology,policies,and so on.This article adheres to a problem-oriented approach,and proposes countermeasures and suggestions for the development of equipped deep-sea aquaculture in five areas:breakthroughs in quantity,improvements in quality,strengthening in intelligence,focusing on support,and improving in industrial chain.It is hoped that this article can provide a reference for Fujian province to vigorously develop equipped deep-sea aquaculture.
