(HBO) In recent years, ‘ngan’ fish in Da river – a species of fish that has a see-through and tiny body like a thread of noodle with the eyes are the only black spots - suddenly becomes famous. It becomes a precious and delicious specialty, making people eat once and want to enjoy again and again.
‘Ngan’ fish is sold in Nghia Phuong market in Hoa Binh city.
This year’s ‘ngan’ fish season came soon. Since
the beginning of March, many boats could purchase the fish. This time started
the new season of the fish so the fish is abundant with high quality.
At the beginning of the season, the fish is
usually sold at a higher price - about over 200,000 VND per kilogramme. By
mid-season, the price drops to only over 100,000 VND per kilogramme. Each kilogramme of ‘ngan’ fish is enough to
cook three different dishes for a meal.
‘Ngan’ fish can be mixed with spices, dill
vegetables, onions and eggs, and meat to make nutrient-richsteamed fish ball. "Ngan’ fish can also be dried or used to make sour
soup.
A number of traders said they sell a lot of
fish to merchants and retailers at markets, and to restaurants. ‘Ngan’ fish is
usually not enough to meet the demand of buyers.
Local fishermen have good sense of fishing to sustainably preserve the aquatic
resources. They usually use handcrafted items such as nets, fishing-baskets or angling
to catch fish, not those that can cause disappearance of the species of fish.
To protect the aquatic resources in a sustainable manner, in May 2018,
the provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development asked Hoa Binh’s
localities to have specific measures and activities, including those to reasonably
exploit ‘ngan’ fish through using fishing gears to exploit aquatic products. The
moves aims to avoid affecting natural fish species and those cultivated in
cages by locals, and prevent overexploitation./.
