Description Inflation in general and food inflation in
particular greatly affects the poor as they spend a large share
of their income on food. Analysis of food inflation helps to
develop strategies for improving the supply- demand
situation. The inflation in marine fish prices were analyzed
by developing an aggregate marine fish price index based on
the ex-vessel prices of 22 marine fish groups for the period
1995-2014. The growth in landings and value of marine fish
in India for the period 1995 to 2014 was also analyzed using
compound annual growth rates. The aggregate price index
showed the highest increase during 2005-2014 period
(129.42%) when compared to 1995-2004 period (106.16%).
The compound annual growth rate of marine fish landings
was 0.68 % during 1995-2004 period and 5.43 % during
2005-2014 period. The gross value of marine fish deflated
based on wholesale price indices (WPI) showed that the
growth in real values of marine fish was higher during 2005-
2014 period when compared to 1995-2004 period.
