Subject Fish biology

Description The application of scientific knowledge for the development of the fishing
industry lies in an intimate knowledge of the biology of fishes. Without proper
knowledge of the life, habits and behaviour of fishes, it would not be possible to
plan, control and manage the fisheries resources in a satisfactory manner. The
importance of some knowledge of the hatural history and ecology of organisms
affecting the particular fishery cannot be overestimated. Such knowledge is
largely the basis for fishery regulation . It also helps in determining the need
to improve a given environment and in the required direction. The fundamental
principles of artificial propagation of fish rest upon a prior understanding of
life of fishes in their natural surroundings. In this account, the importance of
biological studies in the oevelopment of fisheries with special reference to inland
and marine fisheries, fish processing and fishery regulation is outlined.
