Academicians Take the Lead

Jointly Planning for High-Quality Development of the Aquatic Industry

This year marks the tenth consecutive year of the China International Aquatic Science and Technology Conference. Over the past decade, it has been a period of intellectual collisions and innovative development, as well as a decade of China's arduous journey from a major aquatic producer to a strong aquatic power. Over the past ten years, the conference has invited numerous Chinese and foreign academicians and authoritative experts to share cutting-edge technologies and provide innovative solutions, injecting new impetus into the high-quality development of the aquatic industry and contributing wisdom to China's leap towards becoming a strong aquatic power.

Over the past decade, academicians and experts have fully leveraged the platform of the China International Aquatic Science and Technology Conference, focusing on the new trends and requirements of the aquatic industry's development. Through in-depth discussions and brainstorming, they have offered suggestions and advice for the innovative development of China's aquatic industry.

Academician Zhu Zuoyan proposed that to promote scientific and technological innovation in the aquatic field, the seed industry should take the lead. He emphasized the need to strengthen industry-university-research collaboration, deepen scientific and technological innovation, accelerate the transformation and application of research results, and continuously empower the development of new aquatic productive forces. Academician Gui Jianfang has repeatedly emphasized that the new era's "sustainable development" and "ecological civilization construction" are driving significant innovations and transformations in aquaculture technologies and models. He noted that China's new paradigm of green ecological aquaculture is realizing the "Chinese Dream" of aquaculture. Academician Mai Kangsen proposed the full development of non-traditional protein sources and the use of disruptive technologies to ensure the sustainable development of aquatic feeds. Academician Liu Shaojun emphasized that "good breeds and good farming practices" are the core of the aquaculture industry. Academician Chen Songlin pointed out the need to advance towards the ocean and rely on facility-based marine fish farming to increase production... With their highly forward-looking perspectives, these academicians and experts have shared their research achievements in the aquatic field, comprehensively demonstrating the cutting-edge progress in theoretical research and scientific research practices in China's aquatic sector, and further clarifying the path for high-quality development of China's aquatic industry.
