Up to now, more than 6000 aquaculture households in Zixing City have resumed production.
Wen Xiaolong, an aquaculture farmer in Tangdong Street, was patrolling his 200 mu fish pond to salvage food scraps. Affected by the epidemic, Wen Xiaolong kept more than 40000 Jin of marketable adult fish in the pond last year, spending more than 2000 yuan per day on fish feed alone. After knowing the situation, the Municipal Animal Husbandry and Aquaculture Affairs Center, through communication with the Agricultural Bank of Zixing City, a special "Dongjiang Fish loan" for all aquaculture households in the city was launched. Wen Xiaolong only needs to apply for the loan through mobile phone, and then can receive the loan through mobile phone palm banking after the bank staff approves and imports the list offline.
"Now the Agricultural Bank of Zixing City has lent us 300,000 yuan to buy fish seeds and help us get through this epidemic." Wen Xiaolong said.
In the breeding base of Liangmei Sturgeon Technology Development Co., Ltd. in Dongjiang Bay waters, tens of thousands of salmon and sturgeon were swimming in the cage on the water surface, overlooking from the air, like a moving flower blooming on the blue water surface. Since February 20, the company has disinfected the breeding ground and trained the staff on epidemic prevention. However, affected by the epidemic situation, the sturgeon that meets the sales specifications in the company has encountered difficulties in the external sales. "In the face of losses, we also put 60000 yuan or 70000 yuan of feeds into the water every day." Wu Zonglin said, who is the General Manager of Zixing Liangmei Sturgeon Technology Development Co., Ltd.
To this end, the Municipal Animal Husbandry and Aquaculture Department has opened a green channel for the transportation of fish fry and feed for enterprises, and helped them to contact with supermarkets in the city and expand the sales channels.
