Description Determination of age and growth of a fish is an important aspect of any
fishery research programme. The knowledge of the age structure of the population
from year to year helps to furnish the mortality and survival rates of
various year classes and also the success of yearly recruitments. Analysis of
size and age data of the fish gives estimates of growth rate of the fish and also
explains the role played by various year-classes in the fluctuation of the
fishery. As is well known, the rational exploitation of the fishery depends bn
adequate information of these vital rates for which accurate assessment of age
is .essential.
