Description  Fishing is an age-old practice and the fisheries sector is vital to India’s economy, whichcontributes to the primary livelihoods of about 2.8 crores of fishers and many more along thefisheries value chain. Fish and fish products constitute about 17% of India’s total agriculturalexports. The sector has been reckoned as a promising contributor to foreign exchangeearnings. The compound annual growth rates of exports and their instability from 2001 to2021 have been worked out for crustaceans, molluscs and frozen fish. The study revealedthat the quantity of crustacean exports has grown at a comparatively high and significantrate of 11.08% during the decade spanning 2011-2021 (Period-II) than during 2001-2010(Period-I). The growth in unit value realised from the export of molluscs declined from5.8% during Period-I to 2.8% during Period-II. The growth in unit value of frozen fish exportdeclined from 10.68% during Period-I to a slow growth rate of 0.11% in Period-II. The declinein the growth of unit values in molluscs and frozen fish indicates a declining demand and, inturn, a declining incentive for future exports from India.
