3. What are the four major fish species in China?

The four major carps in freshwater farming refer to the four edible fish species that are most familiar to Chinese people. They are black carp, grass carp, silver carp and bighead carp. After more than a thousand years of artificial selection, they have become excellent aquatic species. In the structure of freshwater farming species in China, the four major carps have always occupied a major position. The output of the four major carps accounts for about 80% of the total output of freshwater fish. At the peak of the Yangtze River production area, the output of fry reached more than 30 billion. The four major carps are widely distributed in major water systems in China, and are kept in large quantities in both farming and nature. The flow and fry output of the four major carps have always been important indicators in official fishery resource statistics. Before the Tang Dynasty, carp was the most widely farmed freshwater fish. However, because the Tang royal family was surnamed Li, the breeding, fishing and sale of carp were all prohibited. Fisheries had to engage in the production of other species, which gave rise to the four major carps of black carp, grass carp, silver carp and bighead carp. In the Northern Song Dynasty, the four major carps continued to develop to a wider range of areas for breeding, and breeding in the Yangtze River and the Pearl River gradually prospered. According to the records of Guixin Magazine written by Zhou Mi (1232-1298), the capture, transportation, selection and sale of the four major carp fry have reached a professional level. Moreover, the polyculture technology of the four major carps was developed in the Song Dynasty and quickly became popular. The polyculture technology not only makes full use of aquaculture resources, but also enriches the product structure of fish farmers and reduces production risks. Main characteristics The four major carps all belong to the Cypriniformes and Cyprinidae. Due to the common characteristics of these four types of fish, which are rapid growth and strong disease resistance, they are suitable as edible fish for the public.
