Abstract

Inland waters refer to lakes, rivers, brooks, streams, ponds, inland canals, dams, and other land-locked freshwater sources. Whilst most inland waters are freshwater, areas having daily or sonal fluctuations in salinity (e.g. estuaries, deltas, some coastal lagoons) are also classified as inland waters. Some areas are permanently brackish water or even hypersaline. Inland fisheries produce more than 8.4 million tonnes of fish and support the livelihoods of 23.12 million inland fishers in the country. The inland open water fisheries sector is largely small-scale in nature and includes culture-based fisheries, natural stocking and harvesting, enclosure culture (cage and pen culture) and capture fisheries.
