Zustand: New. pp. xiv + 178 Illus., Map.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. A major reason for decline in fish productivity has been overcrowding of mechanized crafts and absence of extension of exploitable zone. Effective inland water fisheries through aquaculture and pisciculture could supplement the marine catch but the total catch would be far less then demand. This book attempts to evaluate marine fisheries and aquaculture and the role of institutions and the actors in sustaining the required fish productivity level. The papers include economics of mechanized and non-mechanised boats in Pondicherry and Karnataka, marine fishermen cooperatives in West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh. Though there are other areas to cover, the papers make an attempt in presenting information which otherwise is lacking in the growing field of fisheries and its impact on rural development.
