Description The results of gender researches reveal that despite the
important role women play in agricultural production,
they remain disadvantaged in numerous aspects. Women
mostly have limited access to agricultural inputs including
seeds and fertilizers, technological resources, equipment,
land often also lack the capacity needed to deploy these
resources. Today, cage culture of marine fish is receiving
more attention as increasing consumption of fish coupled
with declining stocks of wild fishes has increased interest
in fish production in cages. Suitable locations along the
long coastline including brackish water areas available
in coastal states and other underutilized water bodies
can be better utilized by adopting cage culture which
can play a significant role in increasing the overall fish
production and household incomes of fishermen.
