Another unit in the scientific research block is the Institute for Aquaculture Research I. From emulation movements, the Institute's staff and union members have implemented 85 topics and projects at the ministerial level. In the 2021-2025 period, the Institute focuses on research and production and business services in the fields of pig farming, salinity, and marine fish farming; cold-water fish farming; environmental monitoring and aquaculture in the Northern provinces...

To achieve this result, one of the important factors is the practical emulation movement, which has been the motivation for each person to promote their intelligence, abilities...

In reality, when an emulation movement is built with specific criteria, in line with the reality of the unit, it will attract a large number of union members to participate. Thereby contributing intelligence and initiatives with highapplicability, bringing many benefits.
