Description The finfish export from the country witnessed
remarkable progress in the late 90s due to the
reduction in the catch rates of export oriented items
such as shrimps and cephalopods. The less stringent
quality control measures in major importing
countries promoted the exports of finfishes which
helped the exporters to bridge the gap in capacity
deficiencies and attain scale economies. There was
a boost in the exports of low value pelagics such as
oil sardines and mackerels due to increase in the
purchase prices of high value finfishes such as
pomfrets, seerfishes and ribbon fishes.
