Monopterus Albus cage culture has become a new bright spot in the development of aquaculture in Hengfeng County.

This year, migrant workers returning to their hometown in Hengfeng County, Jiangxi Province have put 200 cages to engage in the cage culture of ricefield eel, with more than 2000 jin of wild eel seedlings, with an estimated output of 10, 000 jin and an output value of about 200000 yuan. Artificial cultivation of ricefield eel in cage breaks the traditional concept of "ricefield eel does not leave the soil". It has the characteristics of less land, less water, easy operation, easy fishing, easy management, high economic benefits and so on, so it is welcomed by the majority of aquaculture farmers. It is a good way to increase the income of farmers and get rich. The technical staff of our county's aquatic products station actively guide farmers to domesticate wild rice field eel seedlings by artificial breeding, regularly give technical guidance to migrant workers returning home, create a wild environment, and grow water peanuts and water hyacinth. Domestication is carried out through health drugs such as artificial feed, small fish compound feed mixed with vitamins, so as to enhance the physique of eel seedlings, reduce the incidence of disease, and regularly apply medicine to prevent eel disease, and use biological agents for ecological disease prevention. At present, eel seedlings are fed normally and the system is good under the careful guidance of technicians. Monopterus Albus cage culture has gradually become a new bright spot in the development of aquaculture in our county.
