Abstract
ICAR-CENTRAL MARINE FISHERIES RESEARCH INSTITUTE, KOCHI, KERALA has been awarded Sardar Patel Outstanding ICAR Institution Award 2019 in the category of Large Institute. The ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (ICARCMFRI), the largest fisheries research institute in the region, through its seven decade long committed R&D efforts has been able to sustain the marine fish production by way of its uniquely twin role of generating fisheries governance/policy oriented knowledge system as well as resource augmenting and conservation oriented technological options that transform the marine space as a frontier food production system. Mandated for developing time series database on marine fish production from the EEZ of the country, their biology, distribution, abundance, fishery forecast, potential yield, and stock assessment, the Institute has been assisting the Central Government as well as maritime states informulating and implementing management measures for sustainable production. The mariculture technologies developed for open sea cage farming of high value marine finfish and shellfish, bivalves and marine ornamentals have bolstered the coastal livelihood-cum-nutritional security and women empowerment. The Institute also addresses issues of ecosystem health, biodiversity conservation, marine biotechnology, and coastal pollution. The HRD and out-reach extension programmes of the Institute have an enduring impact on the sector. The CMFRI has demonstrated its competence, commitment and mission to the overall fisheries development, fulfilling the Blue Economy aspirations of the nation. ICAR-CMFRI has emerged as a global leader in research and development related to tropical marine fisheries and mariculture. The outstanding work carried out by the Institute truly deserves the recognition of this award.
