How can cold-water fish farming effectively prevent and control pathogens?
1. Establish a strict quarantine system. When introducing and exporting fish eggs and fry, all farming areas must strictly carry out quarantine to prevent and control the occurrence of diseases. Farms should set up quarantine ponds to isolate introduced fish species; only after the introduced fish are confirmed free of important diseases may they be temporarily reared. Quarantine ponds are generally located at the end of the drainage ditch. The length of quarantine time should be determined by the transport season, water temperature, and the characteristics of the disease. When the average temperature is not lower than 12°C, 20 days are required; when the water temperature is higher, it can be shortened, which is determined on the basis that the lower the temperature, the longer the incubation period.

Secondary bagging of edible fungi can effectively prevent infection
In the production of shiitake mushrooms (Lentinula edodes), lion's mane mushrooms (Hericium erinaceus), wood ear mushrooms (Auricularia heimuer) and others, the secondary bagging technique is applied (that is, when the mushroom logs come out of the sterilization chamber, an extra layer of thin film bag is put on, so that the mushroom logs inside the bag do not come into direct contact with the ambient air), which effectively solves the problem of cross-infection during the log production process and keeps the strain survival rate above 97%. The technique is described below: 1. Preparation of the outer bag The outer bag should preferably be a low-density polyethylene film bag with a circumference 2 cm larger than the inner bag, a length 5 cm longer than the inner bag, and a thickness of 0.2 silk, with one end tied and sealed for later use.
