The low lying single crop paddy fields, locally called "Pokkali nilam"
tretching along the banks of backwaters and connected canals in Central Kerala are being
made use of during the off season as prawn fishing grounds. The total extent of these fields
may be well over 10,000 acres and their annual production may be estimated at about five
ttousand metric tons. Fairly detailed accounts of this fishery which exists at present only in
Kwala (particularly in the Taluks of Vaikom, Shertalai, Cochin, Kanayannur, Mukundapuram
and Parur) have been published by Panikkar (1937), Menon (1954), Gopinath (1955)
and Panikkar and Menon (1955).
