Subject Trawl Ban
 
Description Millions of fishers along India’s vast coastline eke out
a living, contribute to national development and are
learning to cope up with conservation of marine resources.
Seasonal Fishing Ban (SFB) has been followed since the
late 80’s to protect breeding fish population during peak
spawning season. An economic valuation of SFB in five of
the maritime states shows improved ecosystem services
in the form of catch, fisher income, biodiversity, respite
to the sea floor and reduced carbon emissions. These
benefits outweigh the costs of a ban.
