The aquatic biological resources in the Yangtze River have shown a positive recovery trend since a fishing ban was implemented in the river, according to a communique released on Monday by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the Ministry of Water Resources, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, and the Ministry of Transport.
 

The communique indicates that in 2023, resource density in the main stream increased by 16.7 percent year-on-year, while resource volume in major tributaries rose by 64.3 percent.
