The invention relates to a method for improving the 
survival rate of 
rice field eels in the transportation process and belongs to the technical field of fish culture. The method comprises the following steps: (1) temporary culture of the 
rice field eels, i.e. transferring the 
rice field eels to be transported into a temporary culture net cage to carry out temporary culture for one day, stopping feeding and placing few loaches into the temporary culture net cage; (2) preparation and bagging of water for transportation, i.e. dissolving 
vitamin C and 
astragalus polysaccharides in water, wherein the 
vitamin C being added is in an amount of 10g / m3, and the 
astragalus polysaccharides being added are in an amount of 3g / m3, simultaneously regulating the pH value into 7.0 to 7.5, placing the rice field eels and the water for transportation into a special 
oxygen bag for aquatic products according to a ratio of 1:1, filling 
oxygen and sealing, wherein the 
oxygen content is 6mg / L; and (3) the transportation of the rice field eels, wherein the water is changed for once at intervals of 6 hours in the transportation process so as to ensure that the dissolved 
oxygen content of the water in the bag is always over 6mg / L and ensure that the pH value is always in the range of 7.0 to 7.5. According to the invention, the 
vitamin C and the 
astragalus polysaccharides are added into the water for transportation of the rice field eels, so that the anti-stress capacity of the rice field eels is improved, the stress response, the injury and the death of the rice field eels in the transportation process are effectively avoided, the 
survival rate of the rice field eels in the transportation process is successfully improved, and a reliable 
transportation technology is provided for solving the problem of a rice field eel artificial propagation technology and improving the economic benefit of the rice field eels.
