2016-12-05

On December 2, 2016, the “Guangdong-ASEAN Fisheries Cooperation Seminar” hosted by the Guangdong Ocean and Fisheries Department and the Pearl River Fisheries Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences was successfully held in Guangzhou. This seminar is an initiative of Guangdong to actively participate in the national “Belt and Road” construction, give full play to the advantages of Guangdong's marine fishery exchanges and cooperation, and continuously strengthen exchanges and cooperation with relevant countries and regions including ASEAN. Zheng Zhiling, deputy dean of the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences (hereinafter referred to as the Chinese Academy of Water Sciences), and Qu Jiashu, deputy director of the Provincial Department of Oceans and Fisheries, attended and delivered speeches. The Minister of Agriculture, the River Basin Fisheries Supervision and Administration Office, the Water Science Institute, the Provincial Development and Reform Commission More than 140 people from the relevant departments of the Provincial Department of Commerce, the Foreign Affairs Office of the Provincial People's Government, and government officials, experts, and entrepreneurs from Singapore, Cambodia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Germany, and China's universities, research institutes, and enterprises. The seminar.


From 2009 to 2013, world fishery production (including fishing and aquaculture) showed a steady growth trend with an average annual growth rate of 3.9%; especially from 2012 to 2013, the annual growth rate reached 4.6%; in 2013, Asia (including Southeast Asia) fisheries Total production accounts for 73.6% of the world's total output, with Southeast Asia accounting for 20.9% and reaching 40 million tons. From 2009 to 2012, the total aquaculture production in Southeast Asia increased steadily, with an average annual growth rate of 16.0%, while it declined slightly in 2013. In 2013, the largest aquaculture production was Indonesia, accounting for 62.9% of the total aquaculture production in Southeast Asia; followed by Vietnam (13.9%) and the Philippines (11.4%).



“Guangdong has carried out fruitful cooperation and exchanges with the ASEAN countries in platform construction, project implementation, production capacity and technical cooperation in the past three years. It is hoped that the two sides will strengthen communication and contact in the future, discuss new prospects, build new high ground and share new achievements. Xu Jiashu, deputy director of the Guangdong Ocean and Fisheries Bureau, said in his speech.

"As the main force of China's aquatic products, the Academy of Water Sciences will continue to attach importance to fishery cooperation with ASEAN countries and make further efforts to continuously strengthen exchanges and communication with the fishery science and technology departments of ASEAN countries, and jointly promote the development of regional fisheries for the benefit of regional people. Make a greater contribution." Zheng Zhiling, deputy dean of the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences, said in his speech.




At the seminar, a total of 18 special reports were made by government officials, experts, scholars and business representatives from 7 countries.


Xu Ruiyong, director of the Pearl River Fisheries Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences, pointed out in his keynote report the status of China's freshwater fisheries industry, and prospects for fisheries cooperation between China and ASEAN countries. He believes that the total output of aquaculture in Southeast Asia is growing steadily, which will bring fishery technology. Rapid advancement, especially in the freshwater aquaculture industry, will be rapidly improved. China and ASEAN countries have a wide range of cooperation in freshwater fisheries. In the future, the Pearl River will strengthen cooperation in the following areas: the creation of a China-ASEAN freshwater fishery resource pool; the investigation and protection of transboundary ecosystems; and the research on the prevention and control technology of major fish disease diseases. And demonstration; alien species monitoring and risk assessment techniques; large-scale breeding of freshwater fish and demonstration of integrated integration of healthy farming technologies.




Professor Miyazawa of the National University of Singapore mentioned in the report "Application Prospects of Genetically Modified Fish in Aquaculture" that the application of genetically modified fish technology in the future will be very extensive, in the prevention and treatment of diseases, improving the antibacterial properties of fish and enhancing the nutritional value. Increasing the amount of protein is important. The principle and practical application of transgenic technology are described in the case of transgenic zebrafish, genetically modified salmon and transgenic salmon. For GM fish, the biggest concern is the impact on natural ecology, but the experiment shows that the fish in the natural environment The class is more likely to mate with wild fish, and the release of genetically modified fish in nature does not pose a threat to the food chain and nature. Relevant management departments also manage the delivery of genetically modified fish through biological and regional control. In the development and application of GM fish technology, Singapore is now facing bottlenecks with insufficient space and space, and more and more animal protection regulations have caused certain laboratory research restrictions. Therefore, there will be more Singapore in the future. Space for cooperation with Asian countries.




Ly Sokta, Fisheries Promotion Officer of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Cambodia, said in the “An Overview of the Protection of Fishery Resources in Cambodia” that fisheries are an important source of Cambodia’s GDP and foreign exchange. The annual fishery catch is 350,000 tons, accounting for 11.4% of the national GDP. . Today, climate change and illegal fishing are important reasons for restricting the development of Cambodian fisheries. The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries has also issued a series of fisheries-related policies. Planning fisheries protection zones and combating illegal fishing will control the annual fishery catch to 500,000 tons. Around, and a number of integrated aquaculture projects have been established to increase the total value of the fishery economy by more than 15% per year.




Researcher Huang Wei of the Yellow Sea Fisheries Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences introduced aquatic health biosecurity. Biosecurity plans include site planning and construction, traceability systems, disease detection, risk assessment, and water treatment. At present, there is still a misunderstanding of "planting quality = genetic attribute" in the concept of breeding. The quality of seedlings reflects the health status of seedlings. It is not inherited, can only be constructed by itself, and cannot be confused with genetic attributes. For the biosecurity method of shrimp culture, it is necessary to pay attention to the elimination operation, water cultivation, quarantine and poison control, standard crude material transfer, fish and shrimp matching, and eating less meals.




Wang Yan, director of the Institute of Marine Biology, Zhejiang University, mentioned the current status of the use of fishmeal in feeds in the report “Study on the Feasibility of Reducing the Demand for Fish Meal for Marine Fish”. The annual output of fishmeal in the world is 5-6 million tons. Fishmeal is an important source of protein in aquatic feed. According to the statistics of 2007, the average content of fishmeal added to the world's aquatic feed is 30%, but in China it is as high as 40%. %, China imports more than 10,000 tons of fishmeal from abroad every year, worth more than 100 million yuan. Since 1974, fishmeal replacement research has been 40 years old. Animal protein such as cotton aphid and corn protein, as well as animal protein such as chicken powder and meat and bone meal, are the main products of fishmeal replacement, but they cannot be completely replaced by fen. The main limitation of nutrition is the amino acid composition of the substitute, anti-nutritional factors (trypsin inhibitors, etc.), fat and cholesterol content.



Fisheries are an important part of the ASEAN countries and have made important contributions to the three pillars of the ASEAN Community. Fisheries are a major source of protein, essential for ASEAN food security, and play an important role in the livelihood support of national and regional economies and millions of poor people in the region and should be a major focus of regional cooperation.
