Abstract

Fish and fisheries play a crucial role in the well being of Kerala's economy. The concern for the fisheries sector has become acute following the severe decline in the total fish landings. This recession in fish production was accompanied by decreasing profits, particularly the fishing units in the mechanised sector, which were hit by fast-rising fuel prices. Among the problems that have to be solved are (i) how to rehabilitate the mechanised sector and resume its development and (ii) how to upgrade and expand the catch capability abd production of the artisanal sector.
