Report from a Foreign Trip – Poland 26th–30th September 2023

From 26 to 29 September 2023, the 28th Carp Conference took place in Kazimierz Dolny, Poland, on the Vistula River. The event was organized by Polskie towarzystwo rybackie and was attended by 200 participants. I was invited to the conference to give a lecture "Current situation in fish farming in the Czech Republic - hot topics: fish marketing, water quality and fish predators". The information about the state of Czech aquaculture and their current problems was very attractive for the audience. The conference featured a series of interesting and inspiring lectures, especially in the area of fish marketing and consumption, with a focus on carp. It was also possible to establish a number of personal contacts for further cooperation.

Participation in the conference was supported by the NAZV project No. QK22020144 "Species and technological diversification of the production fishery in the Czech Republic to promote its efficiency and competitiveness", which is funded by the programme of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Czech Republic, EARTH.
