| Description |
Scientists from the ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) said deploying artificial reefs (AR) on the sea bed would enhance the growth of marine fauna and flora and stimulate natural settings for fish production. Artificial reef is a sheltered human-built structure submerged on the sea bed as a substitute for natural habitats. Having a fixed scientific design, it functions as a self-sustaining production system on the sea bed. According to a report presented by the CMFRI during the session, 280 AR sites have been deployed in India’s coastal waters, including 243 in Tamil Nadu and 28 in Kerala.
