Description Fisheries sector plays a significant role in the
socio-economic development of a developing
country like India by generating employment and
income, besides being source of protein for a large
section of the population. It generates a substantial
amount of foreign exchange through exports. Over
a period, marine fisheries sector in India has
witnessed a significant improvement in fishing gear
technologies, infrastructure, communication and
transportation facilities which resulted in an
increase in the annual marine fish production from
0.5 million tonnes in 1950 to 3.59 million tonnes in
2014. Marine fisheries are considered as renewable
resources, but its management and development
supported by focussed research activities are
necessary to ensure sustainable fish production
from the seas.
