Scope

Main technical content: "Xiangyang Chatou Bream" is a bream species produced in the waters of the Han River flowing through Xiangyang City. The excellent water quality environment, abundant food resources, and suitable climate conditions determine that its quality is superior to that of breams from other rivers and lakes. Xiangyang Chatou Bream contains high protein, low fat, and various amino acids. Its flesh is snow-white and tender, with a large and fatty head and a nutritious brain, offering a delicious taste. It is a high-quality aquatic product with comprehensive nutritional value that meets people's daily dietary needs. Chatou Bream has a short and thick head, an arched back, a flat and wide body, and fine, silvery scales. It is also known as "Chatou Shuoji Bream". The "Hubei Gazetteer" records: "Bream, also known as Fang, is widely distributed in various places. Those from Fankou in Wuchang City and Lumen in Xiangyang City are the best." Chatou Bream has tender flesh and high nutritional value. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, officials in Xiangyang regarded Chatou Bream as an official fish and prohibited ordinary people from catching it. Every fishing season, the government sent people to catch it with rafts, hence the name "Chatou Bream". After years of development, a series of production processes have been formed, including natural reproduction, artificial reproduction, stocking and release, farming, and deep processing and sales of products.
