Fur Industry Must Catch Healthy And Sustainable Development From The Source.

"Aquaculture as the upstream industry of fur industry has attracted more and more attention. It is necessary to grasp from the source to fundamentally promote the healthy and sustainable development of fur industry." Recently, Sun Quan Hong, director of special forest animal breeding cooperatives in Zhucheng, Shandong, told reporters.

　　 Fact There is a strong demand for fur worldwide. According to the latest data from the international fur industry in 2014, the fur trade value of the world has exceeded 40 billion dollars, employing tens of thousands of people. In 2010-2011, the total retail sales of fur products amounted to US $15 billion, of which China accounted for 1/4 of the total. According to the relevant data, it is possible that China will become the world's largest consumer of fur clothing in 2015.

But how can we promote the healthy and sustainable development of the industry?

"Fur breeding link must realize connotative development, for example, pay attention to animal welfare, and realize the spanformation and upgrading of the industry, so as to cope with it. market The phased fluctuation has finally made great progress, and the pricing strategy such as small profits and quick turnover is not a permanent solution. Sun Wanhong said.

Regarding the welfare of fur animals, Zhu Xiaolin, China Representative Office of the International Fur Association, told reporters, "because the feed ingredients of fur animals come mainly from the leftovers of chicken and fish processing plants, a mink can consume about 50 kilograms of such waste throughout life, which is both economical and environmental friendly."

In view of the challenge of fur animal breeding, Chinese aquaculture industry needs to actively integrate with international standards, and constantly improve the technology and environment of fur animal breeding industry.

In addition, every industry and every enterprise has its inherent law of growth and development, and this development process is not linear. The fluctuation of short-term performance in China's fur industry is not surprising.

Reporters observed that Country The fur industry has been actively connected with foreign countries.

At the end of 2013, the State Forestry Administration, together with the China Leather Association and experts from home and abroad, revised the Interim Regulations on the management of wild fur domestication and utilization technology in China, and 25 experts from domestic and foreign fur animals were involved. This revision is especially focused on raising the relevant standards of animal breeding environment. After completion, it will shorten the gap between fur industry and international advanced level, and guide the industry to move closer to the international advanced level. The new regulations are expected to be promulgated in the near future.

Sun Wanhong pointed out that "the globalization of China's aquaculture industry needs to respect international laws and actively integrate with international standards, and constantly improve and strengthen the technology and environment of fur animal breeding industry."

"The International Fur Association should play a bridge and link role in promoting the fluency of China's fur animal breeding industry and information at home and abroad, guiding the implementation of standardized fur trading methods, and constantly promoting high standards of aquaculture and ecological environmental protection knowledge." Zhu Xiaolin said.

Sun Wanhong pointed out that "only if the sustainable development of the aquaculture sector as a source can be achieved, can the fur industry achieve sustainable development, so the government, enterprises and other parties should pay more attention to the status quo and future of fur breeding industry."
