National Breeding Center for Freshwater Aquaculture was established on 22 December 1976 as the Sub-Institute for Marine Fisheries No. 1 which mainly focused on marine fisheries research. It belongs to the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD) since 2007. RIA2 is a key organization for the research and development of aquaculture technologies and related fields of fisheries in southern Vietnam. I am very grateful to the College of Aquaculture and Fisheries, Can Tho University for providing me this opportunity to participate in this internship program in the National breeding Center for Freshwater Aquaculture.
