Abstract

The marine fishery resources of the country include a coastline \nof 8129 km with numerous creeks and saline water areas, an \nExclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of 2.02 million km2, which \nare suitable for capture as well as culture fisheries. The annual \nharvestable marine fishery resources in the Indian EEZ have been \nestimated at about 3.93 million tonnes constituting more than \n50 % demersal, 43% pelagic and 6% oceanic groups. The Indian \nfish production is contributed both by marine and inland sectors.
