Abstract

This study observed that in the wake of widespread violations, incentive adjusting measures which is a rights based system is desirable and there is a need for the fisheries regulation to move towards that direction. The primary reason identified for overcapitalisation and overfishing in general and trawler sector in particular, has been the failure of various regulatory measures in the Palk Bay region of India. There is a need for fleet reduction by removing at least some of the boats from an oversized fishery.
