Abstract
During the period 1980-'89 Tamil Nadu
contributed an estimated annual average of 2.6
lakh tonnes of marine fish forming 16% of the
total all India fish production. Apart from the
traditional craft and gear operated along the
inshore region, expansion of the mechanised
vessels fleet especially trawlers has significantly
contributed in exploiting the productive ground
fish resources along the coast.
