A modernized trout processing facility has opened in the Bykhov district. Over the past few years, fish production has increased from 500 tons to 2,500 tons annually, necessitating new processing capacity. The installation of modern specialized equipment and thermal ovens has also enabled a significant expansion of the product range. The OAO "Lochva Trout Farm" now operates a full production cycle, from smoking, drying, and salting to caviar, fish chips, and minced meat. The products are sold across all regions of Belarus. According to the production team, the most popular item among customers is fresh chilled fish weighing around one kilogram, which is ideal for an average Belarusian family to cook. Trout weighing one and a half kilograms or more is used for further processing. """
