		The team on eel culture research obtained good results in some experiments, such as medium-sized eel rearing and market-sized eel rearing.
		Construction of the experimental eel culture pond system, which was designed in collaboration with the consultant and the personnel of the Institute by a local design bureau, was started late in 1978.
		This stocking rate is not high in traditional eel culture ponds; however, as the water supply system and the aeration of the ponds were not completed, there were many problems with low oxygen concentrations in the water.
