In recent years however, explains N P Chekkutty, international subsidies, the stringent conditions of global trade, and intense competition from international fishing conglomerates have seen a sharp decline in profits. The resultant impoverishment, anger and discontent have opened the doors to communalism and violence The southwestern coast of India, consisting mainly of Kerala and south Konkan, is one of the richest in the country in terms of biodiversity, abundance of fish stocks, cultural diversity of fishing communities, and historical traditions. With a recorded history of fishing life and trade relations with far-flung countries like ancient Greece, Rome and the Arabs going back almost 2,000 years, life in this coastal belt has been comparatively friction-free and prosperous. There was abundant trade in spices and other valuables through major ports like Panthalayani and Kodungallur -- known as Fandalini and Muziris in Arab and Roman texts - - and the sea has been bountiful. The life of the coastal people was comfortable and peaceful, as they devised their own traditional methods of sorting out differences, methods that have remained in place for centuries. ( Dhanuraj D,2004,Traditional Fishermen Folk In Kerala & Their Livelihood Issues) 1.3 Fisherfolk in Kerala Kerala is one of India’s nine maritime states, and it is also the largest fish-producing state in the country. It contributes more than 30% of India’s total marine fish production and over 36% of marine exports. Kerala enjoys a long and unbroken coastline that extends for 590 km; nine of its 14 districts have the Arabian Sea as their western border. Kerala has an economic zone of 36,000 sq km of sea that is rich in diversity; over 100 varieties of fish are found here. According to a 1976 estimate, the fishery resource potential of the continental shelf of Kerala is around 8 lakh tonnes a year, of which 4 lakh tonnes is considered to be from the inshore sea area of 0-50 m depth. In 1991, the working group on resources, constituted by the Government of India, estimated Kerala’s marine potential at around 5.70 lakh tonnes per annum. The abundance and diversity of fish resources in Kerala’s inshore sea is the result of unique geographical and oceanographic features. These shores lie 20 degrees north of the equator, with relatively warm and stable climatic conditions round the year. Besides, the Arabian Sea estuaries are nourished by 41 rivers originating in the Western Ghats; in fact, a river joins the sea at every 15 km, on an average, providing fresh water and the right mix of salt and nutrients for all forms of marine life to flourish.

  • A Note from the Editor
    Conversations: a trialogue on organization, power and intervention in fisheries Item Type book Authors Sall, Aliou; Belliveau, Michael; Nayak, Nalini Publisher International Collective in Support of Fishworkers Download date 01/10/2021 04:59:51 Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/1834/18202 1 CONVERSATIONS A Note from the Editor his work is based on a trialogue Tthat took place among three socially and politically committed individuals in the winter of October 1999, seemingly light-years ahead of the morally, ideologically and humanistically horrendous events of the recent past, which manifested themselves as eruptions of violence that cared little for lives, let alone national boundaries—whether these be of Afghanistan, Palestine, Israel, India, Pakistan, Indonesia, the US… Conversations is being published at just such a time, in the wake of killing and suffering. It is important to locate it in this historic context, where the sounds of gunfire and laser-guided artillery drown the natural tendency of humans to seek one another in that most primeval of urges—the need to reach out and communicate. Or, simply, converse. Even at an epochal period when the terms of discourse and engagement seem to have been permanently mutated. 2 CONVERSATIONS Though focused on the specific milieu of fisheries, Conversations deals with themes that are timeless—power, discipline, intervention, organization, motivation, will, identity. Part oral history, part polemic, part ideology, part philosophy, the trialogue takes on the nature of a freewheeling disquisition in search of understanding. It is this spirit of open-minded and open-ended discourse that we hope Conversations will invoke in the reader, who must remember that these discussions took place at a time when the world was a slightly more peaceful place and when different cultures were not boxed into antagonistic stances.

  • A Tryst with Siffs in Kerala by Debashish Maitra and Kushankur
    A Tryst With Siffs in Kerala 4 Debashish Maitra and Kushankur Dey CASE STUDY This umbrella organisation of fishermen’s societies has demonstrated how a marketing-based platform, if well managed, can reap rich dividends for traditional, small-scale artisinal livelihoods. The origin of the South Indian Federation of Fishermen Societies (SIFFS) network, that works in the Marine Fisheries sector, dates back to the Seventies. A diocesan rehabilitation project resettled fish workers from various localities in an uninhabited stretch of coast, later christened Marianad, about 20 km north of Trivandrum, the capital of the state of Kerala. One of the major problems that the fish workers faced in the new settlement was that of marketing their fish catch. The marketing system of the region at that time involved beach auctions. Controlled by merchants and middlemen, the system was inherently exploitative. Confronted with this, the fish workers with the assistance of a team of social workers decided to set up their own marketing system and appointed their own auctioneer. Faced with a determined set of fish workers, the merchants, who till then controlled the business, eventually had to yield. The fishing community then took over a dormant cooperative society that had been registered in the village earlier and started operations formally. This was the first fish marketing society called Marianad Matsya Utpadaka Cooperative Society (MUCS). The society was member-based and marketing-oriented, with membership open only to active fish workers who managed the society themselves. The three core activities of MUCS were marketing of fish caught by members, providing credit for renewal of fishing equipment and promoting savings.

  • Draft Industrial Potential Survey
    DRAFT INDUSTRIAL POTENTIAL SURVEY DISTRICT :THIRUVANANTHAPURAM Introduction Thiruvananthapuram District is the southernmost district of the coastal state of Kerala, in south India. It came into existence in the year 1957. The headquarters is the city of Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum) which is also the capital city of Kerala. Thiruvananthapuram city and several other places in the district loom large in ancient tradition, folklore and literature. In 1684, during the regency of Umayamma Rani, the English East India Company obtained a sandy spit of land at Anchuthengu near Varkala on the sea coast about 32 kilometres (20 mi) north of Thiruvananthapuram city, with a view to erecting a factory and fortifying it. The place had earlier been frequented by the Portuguese and later by the Dutch. It was from here that the English gradually extended their domain to other parts of Travancore. Modern history begins with Marthanda Varma, 1729 CE – 1758 CE, who is generally regarded as the Father of modern Travancore. Thiruvananthapuram was known as a great centre of intellectual and artistic activities in those days. "Thiruvananthapuram" literally means "City of Lord Anantha". The name derives from the deity of the Hindu temple at the center of the Thiruvananthapuram city. Anantha is the mythical thousand hooded serpent- Shesha on whom Padmanabhan or Vishnu reclines. The temple of Vishnu reclining on Anantha, the Sri Padmanabhaswamy temple, which dates back to the 16th century, is the most-recognizable iconic landmark of the city as well as the district. Along with the presiding deity of SriPadmanabha, this temple also has temples inside it, dedicated to Lord Krishna and Lord Narasimha, Lord Ganesha, and Lord Ayyappa.

It also describes the experience of a successful fisheries cooperative - in Marianad village of Trivandrum district - and analyses the reasons for its success. The paper was presented at the Workshop on Social Feasibility in Small-Scale Fisheries Develop- ment held in Madras, September 4-8, 1979. The workshop was hosted by the Government of Tamil Nadu in cooperation with the Bay of Bengal Programme (BOBP). The paper may be of interest to small-scale fisheries planners, as also to individuals and institutions who are concerned with the cooperative movement and with the social and economic uplift of small-scale fishing communities. The author, John Kurien, is a research associate at the Centre for Development Studies, Trivandrum. He also works in an honorary capacity with the Fisheries Research Cell of the Programme for Community Organization, an independent agency. He was actively involved with the Marianad cooperative during its earliest days.
