Abstract

Inland capture fisheries are important for food security and biodiversity conservation. In the Asian region, these fisheries are increasingly facing threats from reduction of survival space and variance of habitat of fish and aquatic organisms, pollution of water bodies and aquatic environment, overfishing and destructive fishing practices, local conflict in management and utilization of migratory fish stocks and water bodies, and deforestation. Unavailability of capital for its development and rehabilitation and the lack of awareness on the part of financial institutions of the investment and credit needs are hampering the sustainable development of the sector.
