For the shark catfish sector in the Mekong Delta region to develop sustainably, authorities need to regulate output and quality and the use of chemicals more stringently and prevent unauthorised farming, said Le Hoang Vu, head of Dong Thap province’s Sub-department of Fisheries.
The Mekong Delta is Vietnam’s seafood production and export hub but the region still faces many challenges, such as disease outbreaks and difficulties in meeting market requirements for food origin.
Shark catfish farming has grown rapidly in southern An Giang province due to the authorities’ efforts to introduce sophisticated farming techniques and new technologies.
Can Tho hosted an online dialogue on the Government website on Apr.22 to
review the implementation of the Politburo's Resolution 21 on
socio-economic development and security defence of the Mekong Delta
River in the last 10 years.
