“The Volgograd Region is interested in strengthening cooperation with the All-Russian Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography in matters of scientific and practical implementation of tasks related to the conservation, reproduction and rational use of biological resources and their habitat. Our cooperation is becoming especially relevant these days — during the period of low water in the Volga basin and preparation for the implementation of a large-scale environmental project aimed at preserving and irrigating the Volga-Akhtuba floodplain — one of the largest biosphere reserves in our country. I count on close interaction and cooperation,” Andrei Bocharov emphasized.
Kirill Kolonchin also noted the importance of expanding cooperation and emphasized that the Volgograd branch has changed its status and format of work - now in the hero city there is not just a regional branch, but the Middle Volga branch of VNIRO, whose activities extend to the entire Middle Volga, subordinate to the centers of the Saratov region, the Republic of Tatarstan, and the Perm region. "Interaction with the Volgograd region is quite good, we can carry out joint work at a high level. The lack of water today is a problem for the entire Volga. I am sure that the project, which recently received support from the parliament, will be implemented thanks to your motor skills. We will work together," the head of the institute expressed confidence.
It should be noted that the state scientific center of the Russian Federation
"All-Russian Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography" (VNIRO) is the basic scientific institution of the fisheries industry of Russia. Today, the institute conducts comprehensive scientific research in all fishery basins of Russia and in the World Ocean, develops biological justifications for the recommended catch of aquatic bioresources, has innovative solutions related to the development of marine culture and aquaculture, genetics, molecular biology, fish processing technology and non-fish species, conducts a comprehensive assessment of the impact on aquatic biological resources, and participates in the formation of the economic policy of the industry.
On May 28-29, in the year of the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, a visiting board of the state scientific center is taking place in the hero city of Volgograd - representatives of about 30 regions of the country took part.
Let us recall that as part of the Volgograd Region Days, a large-scale project for irrigation and preservation of the Volga-Akhtuba floodplain was discussed in the Federation Council - the project, presented by Governor Andrei Bocharov, received high praise and support from senators.
