Pelagic Fishery Investigation on the South-West Coast, India, IND/75/038
1980Also available in:
No results found.A review is made in this report of the resources of India from which national can be derived in terms of employment, nutritional needs and increased fishermen's as well as showing the viability of canning with reasonable returns on investment. The seafood industry in India has recorded a phenomenal growth in the course of the last 15 years, due almost entirely to investment by the shrimp processing sector, most productI/qf which are exported. Export earnings registered an impressive growth f rom Rs. 37.5 crore- in 1962 to a record of Rs. 1 797.3 crore in 1977. This represents an increase of nearly 50 times the 1962 value in 15 years. Frozen shrimp has been the main contributing factor and in 1977 accounted for 72 percent of the quantity and 87 percent of the value of seafood exports. -

Pelagic Fishery Investigation on the South-West Coast, India, IND/75/038
1979Also available in:
No results found.The concept of aerial surveys for estimating the fishery resources and various related parameters is new to a country like India, but the UNDP/FAO Pelagic Fishery Project, Cochin had conducted three such surveys in 1972, 1973 and 1974, mainly for estimating the pelagic fishery potential in the Project area extending from Tuticorin in the south to Ratnagiri in the north along the south-east and south-west coasts of India. The present survey, the fourth in the series, has been planned by Dr. G.P. Bazigos (FAO Consultant) and conducted under his leadership. The objective of this survey was primarily for obtaining a synoptic picture of the fishing effort distribution and localization of the inshore fishing industry in the Project area with a view to correlating it with the distribution of the resources located by the acoustic surveys of the Project. The survey was conducted using an 8-seater Twin-Beech aircraft chartered from M/s Goldensun Aviation, Bombay, from 27 to 30 September 1978 . This report includes accounts of the structure of the fisheries of the Project area such as information on non-mechanized and mechanized fishing crafts, gears, resources, fishing seasons and grounds and the presentation, analysis and critical analysis of the data collected during the survey.
