Title Way forward for enhancing Indian
Marine Fish Production
- With Developmental Measures Suggested for Adoption
 
Creator Rao, G Syda
 
Subject Marine Fisheries
 
Description World population is increasing, rendering shrinkage of arable land.
Therefore, package of practices followed in the agrarian sector is for vertical
expansion of productivity. Over the last few years, the ideas on a carbon smart
and health conscious world propagate a holistic view of organic cultivation,
which promotes a qualitative production of food. Coastal plains and riverine
valleys used to be well known for food production. In the realms of climate
change there are issues of Mean Sea Level rise, saline water inundation and
various related issues rendering rnuch of these productive lands unavailable
for agriculture. Even with stringent regulations, most of these lands are
converted into residential areas affecting the equations with respect to food
production. Various researchers suggested that in the years to come, globally
people will have to look at the seas for food. To meet the requirement of fish by
2050 vis-6-vis the population, at current level of management and restrictions,
there seems to be much more dependence on marine fisheries sector to be
exercised for livelihood.
