Abstract

The Visakhapatnam Regional Centre of the ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) has flagged off the first consignment carrying the maiden harvest of orange spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) and Indian pompano (Trachinotus mookalee) - two candidate species known for lot of demand for finfish mariculture in Kolkata. The successful harvest is a major breakthrough in the history of mariculture. This is the first form of harvest of orange spotted grouper and Indian pompano in marine cages in the country, Dr. A. Gopalakrishnan, Director, CMFRI, told The Hindu. Groupers weighing 1.2 tonne and two tonne of Indian pompano were sent in insulated containers in a truck from the city for supply to the West Bengal Fisheries Development Corporation in the presence of CMFRI scientists here on Saturday evening.
