Modern fishery equipment is an important guarantee for realizing fishery modernization. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China 70 years ago, fishing industry in China's fishery equipment has grown from scratch and has made great progress. This paper summarizes the development history and main contributions of fishing industry in China, as well as the main innovative achievements since the 13th Five Year Plan, and highlights the development trend of fishing industry in China's fisheries and the demand for equipment and technology. Specifically, it includes: The level of aquaculture productivity needs to be improved urgently, and more efficient facility fisheries need to be developed to stabilize the Political base of supply. The new space for aquaculture urgently needs to be expanded, and innovative new aquaculture methods that integrate the entire industry chain need to be innovated, gradually becoming a new supplement to ensure supply. The requirements for green development will be higher, and it is necessary to build an ecological circular production mode to comprehensively put the fishery on the track of sustainable development. Modernization of equipment has become an important demand, requiring the development of mechanized and intelligent production technologies, and becoming an important symbol of the "big to strong" fishery industry. The integration of modern elements in society is accelerating, and modern fisheries are entering a new era of synchronous development of "industrial fisheries" and "characteristic fisheries".
