TURNING TO HALF-CLOSED RECYCLING WATER SYSTEM ENDANGERS ARMENIAN FISH FARMS
YEREVAN, October 2. /ARKA/. Turning to half-closed-loop recycling
water supply system endangers most part of Armenia's fish farms,
head of the Union of Armenian Fish fish breeders Artur Asoyan said.
Under a government decree, all fish farms are required to turn to
half-closed recycle water supply to fishponds, which will ensure re-use
of 70% of the water and reduction in consumption. At the same time,
the new system implies introduction of new and expensive technologies
costing from 700,000 to 1.5 million euros depending on sizes.
"Today we face a serious problem in fish breeding", Atoyan said.
Gross output of Armenia's fishing and fish-breeding totaled 11.5
billion drams in January-August, an increase of 32.7% compared to
the same period of the year before. Production volumes in the sector
totaled 1,456.1 tons in August, increase of 23.2% against August 2012.
