Winter harvest at the Hortobágy Fish Farm

The winter fish harvest is nearing its end in the lakes of the Hortobágy Fish Farm, and most of the fish are already in the wintering pools – the CEO of the company said at Hortobágy-Elep on Friday.

Simon Károly said that the 2800 hectare fish farm is the largest carp fishery in Hungary and one of the largest in Europe. Of the 1,500 tons of fish a year, 8 percent are carp, 10-15 percent are bush and amur, and 5 percent are predators: catfish, pike and perch – he added. (MTI)
