This is one of the main contents of the fishery development program to 2030, with a vision to 2045, which has just been issued by the People's Committee of Quang Ngai province.
According to this fishery development program, the total fishery production in Quang Ngai by 2030 will reach 275,000 tons/year, in which, the capture production will be about 260,000 tons. The number of boats will decrease to fewer than 4,500.
The structure of fishing boats tends to reduce the number of ships less than 15m long to exploit coastal sea; reduce the rate of trawling to less than 25%, encourage the conversion to environmentally friendly fishing activities; and 100% of ships with a length of 15m or more will be equipped with cruise monitoring devices.
The aquaculture area strives to reach 2,030ha by 2030 for brackish and freshwater areas. In which, the brackish farming area is 93ha; the freshwater farming area is 1,100ha, and saltwater cages are 200,000m3 (more than 2,000 cages) in the sea.
Aquaculture production will increase gradually by 3-4%/year, striving to reach 15,000 tons by 2030, including 12,000 tons of brackish water farming (including 9,000 tons of brackish water shrimp), 2,000 tons of freshwater fish, and 1,000 tons of marine farming.
With regards to seafood processing, Quang Ngai aims to reach the total capacity of the processing plant of 30,000 tons by 2030; the output of processed products of about 23,000 tons, seafood export of 25 million USD; build and form 1-2 chains of production, exploitation, farming, processing, and consumption of seafood products.
The province strives for 100% of seafood businesses to ensure food safety and hygiene and to comply with the State's regulations on seafood production and business.
Quang Ngai has many advantages and potentials for developing fisheries, especially marine economic development. In the fisheries development program to 2030, with a vision to 2045, the province clearly acknowledges, evaluates, and offers solutions to develop the marine economy synchronously in terms of aquaculture, exploitation, and processing of seafood; strives to help the province become a strong locality in marine economy, enriching from the sea.
The view of Quang Ngai province is to make seafood become a large-scale economic industry with a great proportion of goods, with a good brand name. Economic restructuring (fishery development) tends to increase the proportion of farming and processing values; attract resources and economic sectors to invest and develop effectively with enterprises.
