Description Indian marine fisheries sector is still generating the bulk of its production from the wild capture fisheries leading to
employment for nearly four million people, comprising of 8.64 lakh fishermen families dwelling in 3,288 fishing villages
along the east and west coasts of the peninsular India. In an earlier study by ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research
Institute (CMFRI), we could infer that about 611% of coastal fisherfolk were engaged in fishing and allied activities, of
which about 38% were active fishermen.
