As per the report published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in 2018, India stands at sixth position in marine fish production after China, Indonesia, USA, Russia and Peru with 4.5% contribution. In India, the marine fisheries sector provides employment to nearly two million fishermen. The country earns more than ` 45,000 crore by export of marine products to more than 100 countries, mainly to USA, South East Asia and European Union. The mainland of India comprises nine maritime states and two union territories. Strategies for sustainable management of the marine fishery resources are derived through scientific data collection related to marine fisheries and its prompt analysis. The quantity estimated for different species of marine finfish and shellfish resources commercially harvested annually from the Indian EEZ, is a part of the scientific data collected by the ICAR - Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) for monitoring the marine fishery resources as one of its major mandates. This information is collected online from landing centres and fishery harbours by following a statistically sound scientific data collection system developed by CMFRI and centrally processed at its headquarters to arrive at resource-wise landings estimates every year.
