Culture-based fisheries and pen culture technologies
demonstrated in Bamuni beel, Assam through community
participation to support income and livelihood of local tribal
fishers. Little or no supplementary stocking was practiced in the beel,
resulting in low fish production and modest net annual income to
the community members during 2019-20. Advanced carp fingerlings
@ 3,000 no. ha-1 were stocked in the beel during October, 2020 for
development of CBF. CIFRI-HDPE pens (3,000 m2 area) were installed
in the beel and stocked with carp fingerlings @ 3-9 no. m-2 during
February, 2021 and reared for 6 months. A total of 13.52 tonnes of
fishes were harvested from the beel during 2021-22. The revenue
generated was shared by the 65 tribal fisher families receiving an
annual net income of Rs. 44,763.00 per family. Adoption of CBF and
pen culture thus led to 117% increase in total fish production and
153% increase in net income for the local fishers compared to that
in 2019-20. This can be replicated in other similar region with similar
technological interventions.
