The marine fisheries sector in India contributes 29% of the total fish production in India, but more importantly, provides livelihoods and nutritional security to a vast number of people. Capture fisheries and mariculture enterprises provide seafood that reportedly accounts for 17% of global production of edible meat. Rising human population, upward incomes and preferences among meat consumers increasingly shifting towards healthier seafood, point to the growing importance of the seas in the future. In recent years, extreme weather events spurred by the global climate change phenomenon have increased the challenges facing the coastal community and highlighted the need for fisheries management interventions based on principles of sustainability, resource efficiency and good governance. Against this background, the present issue of MFIS tries to capture the various aspects of marine fisheries in India, covering different fishery resources and regions along the vast Indian coastline.
