Chinese Scientists Achieve Breakthrough in Artificial Eel Breeding After Six-Year Research
Chinese scientists have achieved a breakthrough in artificial eel breeding, cultivating over 3,000 high-quality breeding parents and more than 3 million fry through refined nutritional enhancement and environmental simulation. The national research program, launched in December 2024, passed preliminary acceptance in March at testing bases in Hainan and Fujian. China accounts for 75 per cent of the world's farmed eels and exported more than 65,000 tonnes in 2025.
