Technology Innovation Empowering the Transformation of Chinese Fishing Villages: Opportunities, Challenges, and Development Paths

本文以现代科技创新驱动与高质量发展为视角，探讨中国渔村发展的机遇与挑战。阐述了现代渔业发展新要求的内涵及对渔村发展的要求，分析了我国渔村的分布、规模、经济结构、社会文化特点及存在的问题。指出技术革新与产业升级为渔村带来智能化养殖、大数据决策等机遇，同时也面临资金短缺与技术创新困境、高端人才缺失与产业升级阻碍、生态保护与经济发展权衡难题、文化传承与现代发展冲突、市场波动与风险应对能力不足、政策法规与实际操作衔接落差等挑战，并提出了相应的应对策略。This paper discusses the opportunities and challenges in the development of Chinese fishing villages from the perspective of modern technological innovation-driven and high-quality development. It elaborates on the connotation of the new requirements for modern fishery development and their implications for fishing village development, while analyzing the distribution, scale, economic structure, socio-cultural characteristics, and existing problems of China’s fishing villages. The study indicates that technological innovation and industrial upgrading bring opportunities such as intelligent aquaculture and big-data-driven decision-making to fishing villages. Simultaneously, challenges persist, including capital shortages and technological innovation dilemmas; scarcity of high-end talent and obstacles to industrial upgrading; trade-offs between ecological conservation and economic development; conflicts between cultural preservation and modern development; insufficient capacity to respond to market fluctuations and risks; and disconnects between policies/regulations and practical implementation. Corresponding countermeasures are proposed to address these challenges.
