Abstract

The croakers form an important demersal fishery resource of India. The sciaenid fishery in India during the decade 1984-'95 which had been yielding 1,22,464 tonnes annually formed 6.16% of the average marine fish produc'tion of the country. The statewise analysis during the period showed that 12.28% of the country's sciaenid catch came from Orissa, where its annual average was 14,680 tonnes forming 29.21% of the total fish production. In Orissa where fishing activities are carried out throughout the year and the sciaenids are landed during all the months using one or the other type of gear. It forms one of the major demersal fish resources in this area. Earlier studies have shown that sciaenids formed 19.2% during 1980-'84 and 16.13% during 1985-'89. The status of sciaenid fishery in Orissa during the decade 1984-'95 is evaluated in the present communication.
