Lake Prespa has received 500,000 carp fingerlings produced in Zvezda, Korça. The initiative aims to strengthen the aquatic ecosystem, protect biodiversity and support local fishing.

Agriculture and Rural Development Minister Andis Salla said the fingerlings would help restore aquatic fauna and enrich Prespa’s natural resources. Meanwhile, the initiative aims to promote sustainable management and use of water resources. It also seeks to create opportunities for fishing and the local economy.

The restocking also represents another activity of the Zvezda facility in Korça. The facility produces biological material to support the enrichment of aquatic fauna.
