Description Fisheries is one of the fastest growing food sector in the world economy, which provides livelihood
for more than 200 million people around the globe. India, being the second largest producer of
fish in the world, contributes about 5.43 percent of the world production. Fisheries sector plays a
very important role in the socio – economic development of the country by providing a source of
livelihood with direct employment to
over one and a half million people,
besides the indirect employments,
contributes much to the food security
and export earnings of the country as
well. Eventually, there are wide-ranging
variations in marine fish landings, which
might have serious impacts on the
economy of the country. Even though
the quantity of landings is depreciating
in thirteen major marine areas out of
fifteen there is almost a fivefold increase
in the case of India, since 1950.Over the
years, the sector continues to play
strategic role in food security,
international trade and employment
generation. Indian economy has grown
consistently post-liberalization with higher purchasing power and consistent demand for diversified
food products.
