Description In India, the resources available for mariculture/coastal
aquaculture is vast and it includes 8129 km of coastline, 2.2
million km2 of Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) with 0.5 million
km2 of continental shelf area, 1.2 million ha of coastal salt
affected land and 3.9 million ha of estuarine area. In spite of
having huge mariculture resources, lndia is still at the initial
stage in mariculture.The coastal aquaculture scenario continues
to be dominated by shrimp farming with single species.
Presently, shrimp culture in lndia is in doldrums, due to the
frequent failures of the crop. Adopting crop rotation or diversification
using finfishes, to some extent would solve the issue
of diseases in shrimp industry. One of the vital prerequisites
for crop rotation or diversification is the availability of seed
production technology for selected high value finfish. lndian
pompano is a suitable species for crop rotation, since the
shrimp pond could be used as such for the culture of the
species without further modifications
