Abstract

This working paper, based on work done from October 1990 to September 1991 gives an overall picture of the shrimp fry by-catch by assessing quantitatively the seasonal and spatial variations in the species composition. By-catch is 64-99.4 percent of the total fry caught. The fry by-catch destroyed over a period of one year is estimated at 62 million - 2592 million. The study was carried out by the Central Institute of Brackish water Aquaculture (CIBA) at its Research Centre in Kakdwip, West Bengal. It was sponsored by the Bay of Bengal Programme (BOBP) of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Two field biologists were engaged by BOBP for sampling and data collection at three centres and the project was implemented under the supervision of CIBA scientists.
