The Law aims to promote the sustainable development of aquaculture by establishing new and expanding existing aquaculture operations, increasing the production of competitive aquatic species, and ensuring their safety for human health and the environment.
To support the state’s efforts in establishing new and expanding existing aquaculture operations, the Law introduces scientific support for investment projects, providing businesses with informational, analytical, scientific, and methodological assistance funded by the state budget.
The Law also provides state support measures, including subsidies, preferential loans, insurance, tax incentives, and the provision of engineering and communications infrastructure, among others.
The Law specifies the types of activities conducted by aquaculture operators, as well as the fishery water bodies and areas designated for such activities at international, national, and local levels.
The Law establishes the principle of rational use of fishery water bodies to prevent harm to aquatic biological resources and their habitats.
The Law also introduces state oversight in the field of aquaculture, which forms part of the broader framework for the protection, reproduction, and use of aquatic resources.
The text of the Law will be published in official sources.
