The current document attempts to give an insight into the marine fisheries sector, timeline and evolution of marine fisheries in the state, fishing practices, resource-wise fish landings, economics of various fishing operations, the status of commercially exploited resources, biological reference limits/parameters, allied sectors in the fishery, etc. Information on fishing and resource mapping depicting fishing pressure, suitable habitats of resources, fishing rates and sensitive fishing zones are presented. The research attempts on level of exploitation, management of by-catch and discards in the fishery to address sustainability of fish stocks, growth-over exploitation and economic returns to the catch are discussed. Marine fishers along Gujarat can now venture into promising fields like Open Sea Cage farming and coastal mariculture and reduce fishing pressure on wild marine resources. The results of various scientific studies attempted by the Research Centre were discussed with fisher stakeholders, ratified, refined and informed to the Government of Gujarat for sustainable exploitation and management of the sector. The centre has conducted regular stakeholder consultations to identify the issues in the sector and chalked out the management plans to address them through a scientific, public and participatory approach.
