BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 18. Kyrgyzstan
introduces a digital control system for fish products, Trend reports via the Kyrgyz
Ministry of Water Resources, Agriculture, and Processing
Industry.
Kyrgyzstan is creating favorable conditions for the sustainable
development of the fisheries sector, the growth of aquaculture, and
the attraction of investment into the industry. The country is
gradually introducing a comprehensive system for the identification
and traceability of fish and fish products, covering the entire
life cycle—from roe to finished products.
At the current stage, monitoring of fish stocking and the
movement of roe, fingerlings, and adult fish has already been
organized, traceability of fish products has been ensured, and fish
farms have been identified. The relevant data have been entered
into the Animal Identification and Traceability Information
System.
Kyrgyzstan plans to introduce full control over the movement of
fish and fish products through the system in the 2026-2027 period.
Each module will be developed in stages, tested, piloted in
selected regions, and only then rolled out nationwide.
The work is being carried out by the Veterinary Service for
Livestock Development, Pastures, and Feed as part of the project
"Enhancing the Safety of Animal-Origin Food Products through the
Creation of an Integrated Intelligent Animal Identification and
Traceability System in Kyrgyzstan," financed by the Republic of
Korea. The project is scheduled for completion in 2026.
