| Description |
The estimated annual average marine fish production in Kutch for the last four years is about 1250 m. tons, of which nearly 60% is constituted by the prawns. There is no information available on the prawn fisheries of Kutch. The account given by Srivaitsa (1953) relates mainly to a general survey of the prawn fisheries with particular reference to the Saurashtra coast of the Gulf of Kutch. Lacumb (1960) has dealt with the prawn fishing industry of Kutch from the economic point of view. Hence investigations on the biological aspects of the prawn fisheries of Kutch with reference to the annual fluctuations, composition of the catch, growth, migration, maturity and food of the commercial species are in progress at the Central Marine Fisheries Research Unit, Kandla, since May 1959 |
