The assessment of Jiagu Marine Ranch is still progressing in an orderly manner.

On the other hand, with the spread of the news, the number of people who pay attention to Jiagu's "30 billion marine ranch plan" is also increasing.

The model of Jiagu Marine Ranch is to truly expand the utilization rate of sea space, and it is no exaggeration to say that one acre of sea produces the comprehensive benefits of three ~ five acres of sea, which is an example in the world.

Through the construction of marine ranches, it is said that a group of fish reefs can now make an annual profit of more than 2.8 million yuan, creating the richest fishermen in the world; the marine ranches built by South Korea have increased the resources of the pasture area by eight times, and the per capita income of fishermen has also reached 230,000 yuan.

This astonishing output value, as well as the considerable employment and income driven by the radiation of the industrial chain, such as upstream production and downstream processing and distribution, can be imagined as attractive to coastal provinces and cities.

For a time, the invitation of the coastal provinces to investigate drifted to Jiagu like snowflakes. Yes, it is not only the government that needs to evaluate the marine ranching in Jiagu, but also the sincerity of the local government before the investment is implemented.

It was not surprising that the coastal local governments were generally supportive of the Jiagu Marine Ranch project, but the unexpectedly strong support came from the Ministry of Environmental Protection.

After silently inspecting the major marine management projects in Jiagu, Wang Zheng, director of the Planning Department of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, found Qi Zheng at the last stop of the Pishan Island Marine Ranch.

He sat opposite Qi Zheng with a smile and said, "Dong Qi, I observed the marine ranch investment investigation team in Jiagu and found that they almost completely avoided the Bohai Rim provinces and cities, can you ask why?"

Qi Zheng smiled and said, "I think, you should know the reason." ”

Director Wang pursed his lips, and then smiled helplessly.

It should be said that no one understands the reason for Jiagu's choice better than him, because his hometown is in a small fishing village on the shore of the Bohai Sea.

He vividly remembers the scene of his fathers fishing at sea in the eighties and nineties of the last century: at that time, he was not idle all year round, catching clams and crabs, catching crabs and catching pomfret and catching pomfret and mackerel and jellyfish after catching pomfret and jellyfish...... When you look at the sea, you can see a group of fish, a large prawn with a size of several thousand catties of palms, and yellow catfish and mackerel more than a meter long are everywhere.

At present, the only species that can be caught and produced in Bohai Bay are a very small number of species such as skin shrimp and crabs, which have strong survival ability, and the traditional fishery specialties such as hairtail fish, squid, red sea bream, wild flounder, and wild puffer fish are almost extinct. In his hometown, the younger "fishermen" joked that there were many fish, and they could only learn about them from the animal world now.

There are many reasons for this, one is human overfishing.

Bohai Bay used to be one of the four major fishing grounds in China and the source of marine fishery resources in the entire northern region. In this case, a fishery resource becomes a "commons": it has many owners, each of whom has the right to use it, but has no power to prevent others from using it, and each of them tends to overuse it, resulting in the depletion of the resource. Overfishing eventually leads to a "tragedy of the commons" for fishery resources.

Of course, for private marine ranches, environmental quality is even more important.

As a semi-enclosed inland sea where the three major water systems of the Yellow River, the Liaohe River and the Haihe River converge, the Bohai Sea has poor seawater exchange and self-purification capacity, and the ratio of the basin area to its own area is also the largest in China's four sea areas, and the marine ecosystem is fragile.

With the development of the marine economy, coastal provinces and cities have promoted the construction of ports and coastal industrial zones, land reclamation, channel dredging, oil and gas development, and industrial waste, occupying a large number of coastal sea areas, which has led to tidal tide changes, sea area substrate destruction, etc., and the spawning and nursery grounds and feeding grounds of marine organisms have also been intensively destroyed, resulting in a further reduction in the fishery utilization value of the surrounding sea areas.

It is actually easy to understand that Jiagu Agriculture and Animal Husbandry excludes the Bohai Sea from the target sea area for the construction of marine ranches.

But that's not the answer he wants, or his ministry.

Director Wang's lips moved, and he still couldn't help but say: "So if it is said that if Jiagu participates in the comprehensive management of the Bohai Sea and improves the sea environment, how much sea area does Jiagu have?"

Qi Zheng was stunned and looked at him very seriously.

Director Wang also waited for Qi Zheng's answer with a serious face.

Qi Zheng was not surprised by the other party's starting point.

Although it is not uncommon for the Bohai Sea to take the Bohai Sea Action Plan as an example, according to the plan, the environmental quality and ecosystem will improve significantly by this year. However, due to insufficient capital investment and governance, as well as too many historical debts, the problem of deterioration of the Bohai Sea's ecological environment is still very serious.

Under such circumstances, it is not difficult to understand how to guide more social forces to join in the comprehensive management of the Bohai Sea.

Qi Zheng was just a little strange: "Why Jiagu? To be honest, as long as we pass the evaluation of the expert group, and I am confident that we can pass the evaluation, we have too many choices for the location of the marine ranch." ”

Director Wang sat down in his position, gave Qi Zheng a thumbs up, and said: "Qi Dong doesn't know, since May this year, according to the analysis of satellite remote sensing images released by the National Marine Environmental Monitoring Center, it was found that the area of the green tide along the Yellow Sea has plummeted by 50% compared with previous years. Do you know what the conclusions of the relevant expert groups have come to after researching?"

Without waiting for Qi Zheng's reaction, he revealed the answer with a smile: "It is the contribution of your large-scale seaweed farm in Jiagu." After research, relevant experts have confirmed that the green tide of the Yellow Sea moss originates from the cultivated raft stud in the southern shoals, and under the synergistic effect of human activities and tidal currents, it spreads northward every year and becomes a normal marine disaster. But this year, experts were pleasantly surprised to find that Jiagu's large-scale seaweed farm in the southern part of the Yellow Sea has largely curbed the outbreak of the green wave......

Qi Zheng was stunned when he heard this.

Every spring, seaweed growers along the southern coast of the Yellow Sea remove the settled green algae from their rafts and enter the Yellow Sea, where abundant nutrients and warm water temperatures allow them to multiply rapidly. Driven by the summer monsoon and northward surface currents, a large area of coastal waters is covered, and the blue ocean suddenly turns into a "maritime grassland"!

In the past, the area of Jiagu's special moss farm was relatively small, and the effect may not be obvious. But today, because of the growing demand for seaweed fertilizer, special moss farms are located in the southern and central waters of the Yellow Sea, so that some of the effects are highlighted.

The occurrence of the green tide is related to the excessive discharge of nitrogen and phosphorus into seawater, especially the excessive discharge of ammonia nitrogen. When the nutrients are enriched in the seawater and the proportion is out of balance, the eutrophication of the seawater is formed, and when the seawater is trophied, the moss grows wildly, and it becomes pollution.

But just as planting trees cleans the air, planting seaweed in the sea improves eutrophication. The large-scale cultivation of special moss in Jiagu rapidly absorbs nitrogen and phosphorus from seawater during the growth process, reducing the concentration of these nutrients, thus robbing the "ration" of seaweed, which may lead to green tides.

The "rations" were effectively consumed, creating a habitat that was not conducive to the rapid reproduction of the moss, and the green tide was naturally controlled to a certain extent.

Of course, there is inevitably a certain golden finger figure, such as speeding up the consumption of nutrients in special moss farms by guiding eutrophicating ocean currents.

It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to salvage the moss floating in tens of thousands of kilometers of sea water. The second and most important point is its "uncontrollableness". However, the special moss cultivated by Jiagu has turned it into a "controllable" resource, which can be carried out in a humanly determined manner and time, and this creature will naturally become a valuable resource.

Director Wang saw Qi Zheng's calm appearance, and his heart was even more respectful.

Qi Zheng may not know how much of a shock the Ministry of Environmental Protection (MEP) has caused a stir in the Ministry of Environmental Protection (MEP).

According to the Ministry of Environmental Protection's internal assessment, it will take at least five years to effectively curb the coastal green tide, and this is still after the coastal factory discharge and marine aquaculture remediation are smoothly promoted.

As a result, people silently "all kinds" of special moss have made half of the "hotbeds" of the green tide outbreak a place that is difficult to cross.

Director Wang didn't know how much effort Jia Gu had put into it, nor how many golden fingers a certain hanger had opened, but he was moved when he looked at the "carpet" covered by the green tide that had plummeted on the satellite remote sensing images.

I always hear that a certain company is a model for fulfilling social responsibility, but most of them are social responsibilities on the surface.

What is commendable is that Jiagu, who has practiced this responsibility, has always been very "low-key".

Some people may say that he Jiagu has been fighting lawsuits and bursting pork production capacity for most of the past six months, where is he low-key?

But he only said that if the relevant experts did not study the reasons for the curbing of the green tide, how many people would know about Jiagu's contribution to it?

It may seem silly to many people to be able to expand the scope of business and improve the efficiency of the enterprise, while using the heart of public welfare in socially disadvantaged areas and taking on more social responsibilities, but in the Ministry of Environmental Protection, such Jiagu has been respected in the purest way.

Because this is not all the actions of Jiagu to build an ecological civilization, but only a microcosm of it.

In a similar vein, the development of the Arashan Desert is a common idea. As the forefront of ecological desertification control and development in China, the oasis developed by Jiagu has completely cut off the "handshake" trend of the three major deserts of Badain Jarin, Ulan Buhe and Tengger in cooperation with the country's afforestation over the years.

It may not be obvious yet, but once half of the vast Arazan Desert is covered by the Jiagu Oasis, the wind and sand invasion in the northwest will be reversed.

Director Wang shook his head and pulled his chaotic thoughts back to the sea ranch.

"After the launch of the Grand Plan for the Marine Ranch in Jiagu, we studied it in detail. If Jiagu's special moss extracts nutrients from seawater to form useful seaweed biomass and releases oxygen to seawater, then the opposite is true for marine animal aquaculture such as fish and shrimp. Animal farming and plant cultivation are two complementary processes. ”

"Our department feels that such a marine ranch is one of the powerful tools for the comprehensive improvement of the ecological environment of the Bohai Sea. If you can, Jiagu might as well set your sights on the Bohai Sea to take a look......"

......

In the end, until he left, Qi Zheng did not give him a clear answer.

However, Chen Zhenian, the boss of the marine business sector, has a very clear attitude: "I am against it!"

"It's the Bohai Sea that is polluted, but the links that need to be treated are on land. Fighting between departments, the difficulty of governance lies in local development, and the power of environmental protection departments is simply not enough to raise environmental standards for local economic development. Chen Zhenian almost didn't name the other party and said that the other party was whimsical.

Just as Chen Zhenian said, the fundamental cause of the deterioration of the Bohai Sea's ecological environment is the high-intensity resource development and heavy-duty industrial structure in the Bohai Rim region -- in the Bohai Rim region, which accounts for only 5.4 percent of the country's total area, 18.5 percent of the country's total population and 22 percent of the country's gross national product are concentrated, and more than 700,000 tons of pollutants are discharged into the Bohai Sea every year, accounting for 47.7 percent of the country's total pollutants entering the sea......

If the source of pollution on land is not solved, even if we go to 10 Jiagu, it can only be said that the trend of deterioration has been slowed down. Therefore, when Chen Zhenian heard this, the whole person was not good, and he shook his head in opposition busily.

It's not okay not to make a clear statement, Chen Zhenian knows that most of the people in Jiagu, including him, are more or less idealistic.

I don't care if I don't make money, this kind of project is not the first in the Jiagu system.

It doesn't need any explanation, it's just that it's just rich and capricious.

However, the marine business sector is still a nascent system, and to put it mildly, it is "poor", but there is not much capital capriciousness.

Since 2010, there have been an average of 9.8 red tides in the Bohai Sea every year, with a cumulative area of 2,021 square kilometers; the oil and gas production in the Bohai Sea accounts for more than half of China's offshore oil production, and the average number of ships entering and leaving the Bohai Sea is about 600,000 per year, resulting in a great risk of oil spill accidents in the Bohai Sea -- if an oil spill accident occurs in a marine ranch, it will really be a cry without tears.

Qi Zheng looked at him as "like a great enemy", and only felt funny, and said: "You are right, but there is one thing that the other party said is not wrong." The ocean is one, and the sea is fluid. ”

"The quality of the sea water is deteriorating year by year, and the impact on marine life is all-encompassing. Seawater pollution can produce diseased fish and shrimp, and our marine ranches attract many fish and shrimp to gather. As long as the general environment does not improve, no matter how much we escape, we will not be able to avoid the impact. ”

Hearing this, Chen Zhenian's expression became solemn.

In fact, not only is the ocean one? In other words, our entire planetary environment is one, and the so-called "one prosper and one loses" is nothing more than that.

If you really don't have the ability, it's okay, and if you are poor, you will be alone, and it won't make Qi Zheng hesitate.

However, in Qi Zheng's ability system, there is still a certain certainty in rebuilding the ecological road.

Only such a guy can have the energy to think about doing something else.

Chen Zhenian saw Qi Zheng's thoughtful expression, his heart suddenly burst, and he hurriedly said: "Boss, this matter has to be discussed in the long run." ”
