Fisheries and aquaculture are significant components of coastal agrarian milieu contributing significantly for the
livelihood, nutritional and economic development. Human resource development is a continuous process and
prerequisite for an effective extension service. A case study was undertaken among the 45 randomly chosen fishery
extension officers of the Department of Fisheries, Tamil Nadu state to assess their perceptions on the human
resource management in their organization, its human resource demand and supply and to suggest a human
resource management strategy. The division of labour in the fisheries extension organization indicated that 60%,
30% and 5% of the existing extension manpower respectively involved in implementation of welfare schemes, fish
seed production and culture, and research and extension services. Fishery resources and fisher folk population
were identified as the criteria for human resource planning using Delphi technique and accordingly 5000 ha of
inland capture area, 1000 ha of inland culture ponds/tanks and 20 marine fishing villages were the units of human
resource planning. The human resource demand and supply were worked out respectively through focused group
discussion and markov analysis. The study revealed that 40% additional human resource is required for an effective
fishery extension service in the state with a vibrant capacity enhancement mechanism. Adequate human resource
supply in the form of qualified fishery graduates is available with in the state for recruitment. Structural and
functional reorientations in the department of fisheries, suitable human resource management strategy, budget and
policy support are essential to revamp the fisheries extension service of the fisheries department.
