| Abstract |
Fishing is a major source of food and provides employment and economic benefits to large sections of the society in India. A wide array of fishing gears and practices ranging from small scale artisanal to large scale industrial systems are used for fish capture. Over the years, traditional fishing gears have been upgraded and newer more efficient fishing systems have been introduced. Most important among these fish harvesting systems are trawls, seines, lines, gillnets and entangling nets and traps. |
