    Abstract

    Marine prawns (or shrimps) are an important commodity in international trade and their fisheries contribute significantly to bring in foreign exchange as well as create employment opportunities, especially in the post-harvest and processing sectors. During the financial year 2021 -22, the Marine Products Export Development Authority reported seafood exports worth US$ 7.76 Billion, in which frozen shrimp was a major item. The ‘sustainability’ factor is important to access global markets like US and Europe and factors inherent to global shrimp trawl fisheries such as by-catch, discards and capture of juveniles are best addressed through informed, science-based fisheries management interventions. The current issue of MFIS looks at the development of shrimp fisheries in India and its current status. Also included are articles pertaining to marine fish marketing and value chains, while the Science Corner focusses on a recent stock assessment of the multi-species trawl fishery for sciaenids, in the north eastern Arabian Sea.
