Pyongyang, July 5 (KCNA) -- Fish-breeding units in North Hwanghae Province of the DPRK push ahead with the work to strengthen the material and technical foundations.

The province takes economic and technical measures and intensifies technical guidance to increase the productivity by selecting the kinds of fishes suited to the regional conditions and applying advanced fish-breeding techniques and methods.

The Sohung Poman Fish Farm has introduced physiological activators to raise the survival rate and weight ratio of sturgeons, in order to put sturgeon farming on a scientific basis, and has built a rainbow-trout hatchery.

The Rinsan Catfish Farm has solved the feed problem through Hermetia illucens and mud snail breeding grounds and directed efforts to ensuring the conditions of their growth, thus increasing the output per cubic meter 1.5 times as compared with last year.

Songnim City pushes forward with the project to remodel a spawning ground under a plan for breeding lots of loaches.

The fish-breeding station in the county of Sinphyong increases fry output by introducing rational fish farming methods.

Fish-breeding stations in Sariwon City and Yonthan County strengthen the production foundations while improving the technical knowledge and skills of employees by organizing a passing-on-technique conference and demonstration lecture to make them collect and hatch spawns as required by technical regulations. -0-
