China's Fishery Output Value to Top 250 Billion Yuan in Five years

The output value of China's fishery sector is expected to reach 250 billion yuan in 2005, with the per-capita output to reach 34-kilograms, up from the present 32.4 kilograms, according to the Ministry of Agriculture.

China's fishery output in 2000 about 42.7 million tons, valued at around 170 billion yuan, said Yang Jian, director of the Fishery Bureau under the Ministry.

The sector shall follow a sustainable growth pattern in the next ten years to increase the per-capita output by 10-kilogram in 2010, he added.

The country faces the challenge of protecting its fishery resources and water environment, threatened by over-fishing and pollution, he noted.

In 2000, about 60,000 fishing boats were found in illegal operation and another 50,000 fishing boats without licenses. They accounted for 40 percent of the total fishing boats.

China will tighten control on the number of fishing boats and fishing quota this year and continue the "zero growth" fishing plan adopted two years ago, so as to protect fishery resources, Yang said.
