Core Viewpoint - The article highlights the emergence of salmon as a popular choice for New Year's Eve dinners in China, particularly from a significant cold-water fish farming base in Shanxi Province, which challenges traditional perceptions of salmon being exclusively a deep-sea product [1][2]. Group 1: Industry Insights - The salmon farming base, established in 2016, produces 800 tons of salmon annually, with a market price of 50 yuan per jin [2]. - The shift of salmon from high-end restaurants to common households reflects a trend towards quality and specialty in the New Year consumption market, indicating a transition in consumer preferences from basic needs to quality and health [2]. - The domestic supply of fresh salmon is primarily reliant on imports, with a low domestic production ratio, but there is potential for domestic high-quality cold-water fish to capture the mid-to-high-end market during festive seasons [2]. Group 2: Farming Techniques - Salmon, known for its high demands on water temperature and quality, is successfully farmed in Shanxi due to a stable water temperature of 10-15°C and water sourced from the Zhangfeng Reservoir, meeting national drinking water standards [4]. - The farming model employed is based on "source live water," which mimics the natural growth environment of salmon, demonstrating that high-quality aquaculture can thrive in inland areas [4]. - This case serves as a model for transforming northern fisheries, advocating a shift from traditional fishing to ecological farming and from bulk products to high-value specialty varieties [4]. Group 3: Brand Development and Future Plans - To enhance brand strength, recommendations include implementing traceability standards, creating a regional public brand, and promoting direct sales to retain more profits in the production area [5]. - Future plans for the salmon farming base include increasing production capacity to 1,500 tons by 2027, developing high-value processed products, and integrating tourism and experiential activities into the business model [5][7]. - The farming base has positively impacted local communities, helping over 500 individuals escape poverty through various employment and profit-sharing models [7].
