About The Book

Besides giving an outline of the beginning of fisheries industrialisation, technological innovations responsible for it; setting up of modern fishing industry to put the world fisheries on commercial ventures with resulting consequences of overfishing in certain areas of oceans leading to collapse of fisheries and the shift from capture to culture fisheries and aquaculture development have been dealt in this book. The impetus for growing, aquaculture, particularly, in developing countries, such as recent technological innovations in aquaculture, especially on reproductive technologies, disease control, feed technologies, holding systems and as a tool for rural development have been included in the book in addition to giving bionomics and prevalent culture procedures of the sea fishes, like yellowtail, sweetfish, salmon, eel, halibut, sea bream, trout, sea weed, oyster, marine pearl and ranching of tuna. The culture practices of eurihaline fishes and crustaceans, like sea bass (Lates calcarifer), mullets, milkfish (Chanos chanos) and mud crabs (Scylla serrata) in various South East Asian countries including India were described in details. Shrimp farming has been dealt in a separate chapter of this book, in view of its high commercial importance as foreign exchange earner by many developing countries. Among freshwater aquaculture, common carp culture in ponds, pens and production of common carp seed from small scale hatchery have been outlined in the book. Indian fisheries, in global fisheries scenario have been discussed by including oil sardine, mackerel, Bombay duck, skipjack, ribbon fish, pomfret, elasmobranchs, sole, prawn and shell fisheries under marine fisheries sector. Under culture fisheries, culture of Indian major carps, prawn, live fishes and their role in income generation in rural and urban areas have find place in this book. As an integral part of industrial fisheries, post harvesting technology and processing of fish for prevention and various form of value added product preparation in the fish processing industries to give fisheries, a real industrial status have also been given in the book elaborately.
