In 2024, the Provincial Tilapia Hatchery, located at Brgy. Barcenaga, Naujan produced and dispersed a total of 700,000 pcs tilapia fingerlings to 67 backyard fishpond operators&#8217; beneficiaries from Baco, Bansud, Bongabong, Calapan City, Gloria, Pola, Naujan, Pinamalayan, Socorro and Victoria covering 35.795 hectares of freshwater fishpond served. This initiative significantly contributes to enhancing the overall production efficiency and profitability of tilapia farming operations. The initiative not only supports the operators but also advances the growth and sustainability of the aquaculture industry fostering for both economic development and food security in the province.\u00a0<\/p><p>Broodstock Development and Breeding of Native Freshwater Fish Species<\/p><p>To diversify the production of freshwater aquaculture and introduce the culture of indigenous fishes, PAgO has initiated the broodstock development of freshwater fish species from Naujan lake. Collection, transport, and rearing of native freshwater fish species such as silver therapon (<em>Leiopotherapon plumbeus<\/em>), climbing perch (<em>Anabas testudineus<\/em>), freshwater golden flathead goby (<em>Glossogobius aureus)<\/em>, as well as the Asian catfish (<em>Clarias macrocephalus<\/em>), giant fresh water prawn (<em>Macrobrachium rosenbergii<\/em>) and striped snakehead (<em>Channa striata<\/em>) was conducted in March 2024. During breeding trials, the hatchery recorded significantly higher survivorship rates for economically important native species, including the\u00a0<em>biya\u00a0<\/em>and the\u00a0<em>ayungin.<\/em> The successful second trial was conducted on May 23, 2024, with 211 pcs sub-adult of\u00a0<em>biya\u00a0<\/em>with average body weight 800 grams and 404 sub-adults of\u00a0<em>ayungin<\/em> with the average body weight of 250 grams substantial improvements in survival attributed to the refinement of transport protocols, acclimitization methods, and rearing conditions.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-371db7d6 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit elementor-widget-tablet__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"371db7d6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" id=\"fisheries-production\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Oriental Mindoro Fisheries Production, Jan-Oct 2019<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e248b27 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e248b27\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"841\" height=\"470\" src=\"https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Oriental-Mindoro-Fisheries-Production-Jan-Oct-2019.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-327\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Oriental-Mindoro-Fisheries-Production-Jan-Oct-2019.jpg 841w, https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Oriental-Mindoro-Fisheries-Production-Jan-Oct-2019-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Oriental-Mindoro-Fisheries-Production-Jan-Oct-2019-768x429.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 841px) 100vw, 841px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-27c62be elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit elementor-widget-tablet__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"27c62be\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Recorded Satellite images (Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite) showing no violations in Oriental Mindoro.

conducted in October 2019 (Fig.11-12), the top 5 MPAs with highest live coral cover ranging from 62-91% (very good to excellent) are Harka Piloto Fish Sanctuary, Calapan City, Coral Garden Puerto Galera, Agsalin Fish Sanctuary, Gloria, Ranzo Fish Sanctuary, Pinamalayan and St. John D Baptist, Pola. Total dead coral cover is recorded highest from 38-67% in Balatasan-South, Bulalacao, Giant Clam, Puerto Galera, Banilad-Guinapangan, Pinamalayan, Song of the Sea, Pola and Sta. Theresa, Gloria. Dead corals have potential to recover if algal growth can be minimized by the presence of algal dependent species of fish such as butterflyfish, parrotfish and acanthurids. It wass also observed that silt concentration has lowered in MPAs of Banilad, Sta. Theresa and St. John D Baptist during the October 2019 survey.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a38d5df elementor-widget__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a38d5df\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1408\" height=\"705\" src=\"https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-2019.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-342\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-2019.jpg 1408w, https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-2019-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-2019-1024x513.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-2019-768x385.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1408px) 100vw, 1408px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dd6f8b5 elementor-widget__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"dd6f8b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2147\" height=\"1238\" src=\"https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-20191.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-341\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-20191.jpg 2147w, https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-20191-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-20191-1024x590.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-20191-768x443.jpg 768w, https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-20191-1536x886.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/orminagri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Survey-of-live-reef-and-non-living-reef-cover-of-MPAs.-October-20191-2048x1181.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2147px) 100vw, 2147px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4c6764f elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit elementor-widget-tablet__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4c6764f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"medium-10\"><p align=\"justify\">Fish and invertebrates indicator species were also assessed using the reef check method where 9 species of reef fishes and 9 species of invertebrates were counted.
