Description The marine capture fisheries sector of Maharashtra has
undergone tremendous change in terms of fishing patterns,
fishing methods, spatial expansion of fishing grounds,
multiday fishing and innovations in crafts and gears, among others. With the increasing demand for marine
fish for consumption and other non-food utilization
of fishes, exploitation of juvenile fishes is becoming
more common. Exploitation of juveniles which causes
‘growth overfishing’ is a major concern as it affects the
health of fish stocks and the ecosystem which impacts
livelihood of fishers and causes much economic loss to
all stakeholders.
