Description Fish drying is an age old practice and was adopted
as a practical method of preserving fish that have
not been immediately consumed or sold in the fresh
market. Improved fishing techniques and
infrastructure resulted in increased fish catch, better
marketing, processing and curing facilities. The
advent of multiday trawling at the Visakhapatnam
Fishing Harbour further boosted the availability of
fish and its processing into value added products.
However, drying still remains the cheapest and
popular mode of fish preservation.
