Historical Reconstruction of Indian Marine Fisheries Catch Data: 1950 GOVERNMENT-LED DEVELOPMENT OF INDIA’S MARINE FISHERIES SINCE 1950: CATCH AND EFFORT TRENDS, AND BIOECONOMIC MODELS FOR EXPLORING ALTERNATIVE POLICIES. by BRAJGEET BHATHAL B.Sc., The Punjab University, 1998 M.Sc., The University of British Columbia, 2004 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Zoology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) March 2014 © Brajgeet Bhathal, 2014 Abstract At present, more than 50% of global marine fisheries catches are made in developing countries, and an increasingly large fraction of these catches are entering the world market. Thus, fisheries-related issues in developing countries must be addressed as part of any discussion of global fisheries issues. This thesis analyses the status of marine fisheries in India by reconstructing essential data and constructing biological and economic models. First, effort data were reconstructed over the period of 1950-2005 at the state level. This showed a continuous increase. Then, the catch data were updated and assembled from 1950-2005 at the species level for all states, which showed a gradual increase over time but began to level off toward the end of the period in question. CPUE, an index of relative abundance, was estimated per study area using the final time-series of catches and effective fishing effort from 1950-2005. This measure illustrated a continuous decline. Using the above-compiled data, i.e., time series of catch and CPUE, surplus production models (Fox-linear and Schaefer-non-linear) were created for India and its east and west coasts. Both types of model used in this study indicated that at present, fisheries yields in India are near MSY, but this is achieved at excessive levels of effort and is based on a spatial expansion that is unsustainable. Economic performance was evaluated by bioeconomic models for India in which three scenarios were generated for fishing cost based on the inclusion of different levels of subsidies. The results illustrate that economic overfishing is occurring in the Indian fisheries and the current level of fishing effort is almost twice that corresponding to fMEY, i.e., far beyond the level that maximizes economic rent. ii Overall, the analysis indicates that fisheries are operating unsustainably, pointing toward a serious problem. Thus, India should not continue on its present course of expanding its fisheries through massive subsidization, given the depletion of stocks and poor economic efficiency of this sector. India needs to curb its existing overcapacity and could effectively start with the phasing out of trawlers, which would increase the income of other sectors and their catch per effort. iii Preface This dissertation is original, unpublished and independent work of the author, Brajgeet Bhathal.

It is also rich in fish diversity in terms of varied groups ranging from cyprinids to salmonids. Rainbow trout farming has tremendous potential for augmentation of livelihood security of hill people, and it is being widely expanded, and the technology is widely adopted by the farmers of the state. It will prove to be a successful venture to increase the coldwater fish production for enhancing the profitability of the hill farmers of the region. There are certain issues which has tremendously been affecting the rainbow trout farming. Therefore, it is needed to be dealt with suitable technological interventions along with adoption of policies for it sustainable growth and farming. Researchable issues have to be given stress, especially in development of low cost feed with locally available ingredients, quality seed production and best management practices for trout farming.

  • Small-Scale Fisheries Transition to Sustainable and Responsible Fishing in India - a Micro Level Study
    IIFET 2010 Montpellier Proceedings SMALL-SCALE FISHERIES TRANSITION TO SUSTAINABLE AND RESPONSIBLE FISHING IN INDIA - A MICRO LEVEL STUDY PAZHANI KANTHIAH T.D.M.N.S.COLLEGE T.KALLIKULAM [email protected] ABSTRACT Small-scale fisheries play an important role in generating employment, income and livelihood to the fisherfolk. It constitutes 81 per cent of the total fisheries sector in India. But, this sector remains neglected and the fisherfolk are socially and economically backward. Even after six decades of planned development nearly 62 per cent of the fisherfolk families do not possess crafts. Resource constraints coupled with absence of fishing and other related infrastructures in most of the fishing villages compel fishermen households to migrate to earn their livelihood. Migrant fishermen formed a new village and follow simple method of fishing, which are eco-friendly, economical in the use of fuel and gears. Their responsible fishing is useful for fishing without any by-catches and wastage of marine resources. With this theoretical background, this paper is framed in such a way to analyze the factors that contribute to the transition of small-scale fisheries to sustainable and responsible fishing in Tamil Nadu, India. Factors which hamper small-scale fisheries development have been discussed. The main focus of the study is on the impact of fishermen migration on the socio-economic status of migrants and also the sustainability of fishing operations without class conflict. Policy implications emerging in the light of the findings of the study are also given briefly. Keywords: Small-scale fisheries, responsible fishing, sustainable fishing In recent years, world fisheries have become a market-driven, dynamically developing sector of the food industry.

Sivakumar & T.Thangaradjou* Centre of Advanced Study in Marine Biology, Faculty of Marine Sciences Annamalai University, Parangipettai - 608 502, Tamilnadu, India *[Email: [email protected]] Received 8 April 2010; revised 26 October 2010 Present study explains the diversity, distribution, biomass and productivity of seagrasses in the Lakshadweep group of Islands. Seven seagrass species under five genera were recorded from nine islands and no seagrass was found at Bitra island. Out of seven seagrass species, Cymodocea serrulata was found to be dominant in the Lakshadweep group of islands whereas Halophila decipiens was found only in Kalpeni island. Biomass varied widely from 72+9 to 944+99 gfr.wt.m-2 among all the species of seagrasses. Productivity also showed clear variation within the species and between the species at different stations. Productivity of the species varied from 2.76+0.17 mgCm-2day-1 to 95.53+10.06 mgCm-2day-1 and it was in the following order of increase: H. decipiens< H. pinifolia< H. uninervis< T. hemprichii< C. rotundata< S. isoetifolium < C. serrulata. The spatial cover of seagrasses in Lakshadweep Island is more and are healthy in almost all the islands.

The islands are fringed with some of the most spectacular and intact reefs in the Indian Ocean. Human settlement to the islands occurred in two waves, one thousands of years ago, the other mainly from mainland India and which began in the early 1950s. Fisheries have been slow to develop past subsistence levels. This study aims to reconstruct the total marine fish catch from 1950-2010. It was found that total catch by all sectors is 2.4 higher than the national landings of about 666,300t reported by India’s Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute on behalf of the A&N Islands.
