The biggest crisis in the history of the aquaculture and fishery industry, the Fisheries Department plans to open up the photoelectricity of 1x4 species of fish across the country, and the fishing industry criticizes the "government's anti-fishing".

There has been a lot of controversy about optoelectronics seizing agricultural resources. In addition to the improper development of agricultural land, the aquaculture fishery is facing the biggest land battle in Taiwan's history! According to exclusive information obtained by "upstream and downstream", the Fisheries Department estimates that 10,000 hectares of fish ponds will be released for "fish-electricity symbiosis", accounting for as much as 1 million hectares of the country's total aquaculture fishery area. At present, there have been six cases of fishing and power symbiosis, with a total area of nearly 700 hectares. (AFD responded by clicking here)

According to the regulations on the review of symbiosis of fish and electricity, the original output of fish ponds with photovoltaic facilities must be maintained at least 70%. The Water Test Institute conducted a culture experiment under the photoelectric board in the last (2019) year, and it would have taken two years to obtain complete data. however, the Fisheries Department has "deployed ahead of time" to predict the release of fish fish, and aquaculture fishermen criticize the government for acting in a hurry. Lin Jinlang, director of the shallow Sea Culture Association of Yunlin County, said: "fishermen have been overwhelmed by environmental pollution and extreme weather, and they have to face unfair land competition between optoelectronics and optoelectronics, and become a big cake for operators and politicians to compete for food."

Tsai Hui-hsun, director of the Earth Citizens Foundation, who is also a member of the Fisheries Department's Fish and electricity Symbiosis Review Committee, points out that fish-electricity symbiosis not only reduces the land available to fishermen for farming, but also reduces the ecological habitat space. The Fisheries Department should conduct environmental and social inspections on fishing and electricity symbiosis sites as soon as possible, and the review of all cases should be suspended until then.
