Pyongyang, August 5 (KCNA) -- The Samchon Catfish Farm in Samchon County, South Hwanghae Province of the DPRK, is rare in terms of production capacity. It is known as a model and standard of catfish farms in different parts of the country.

On August 5, Juche 107 (2018), he visited it turned into a big catfish farm, despite the fierce heat of the hottest period of summer.

He stressed the need to produce 3 000 tons of catfishes every year without fail and thus contribute to improving the diet of servicepersons and civilians. He also gave important instructions for the management and operation of the farm and for fish farming.

He elucidated the issues of shortening the catfish production cycle, of improving its flavor by applying a scientific feed formula for each stage of catfish breeding, of rearing a good breed of catfishes, and of increasing the catfish output per cubic metre of water.

He also underscored the need to take measures for ensuring the proper water quality of catfish ponds and quantity of water even in the dry season, and to ensure the proper ecological environment so as to raise the hatching rate to the maximum.
