Abstract

The Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI), under the aegis of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), is headquartered at Kochi, Kerala, India. It is one of the leading tropical marine fisheries research institutes in the world, established on 03rd February 1947. The institute has completed 75 years of service to the nation in 2022. Over the past seven decades, ICAR-CMFRI has played a pivotal role in India’s marine fisheries development through significant contributions in research, extension and education. With state-of-the-art research infrastructure and other auxiliary amenities, ICAR-CMFRI focuses on marine fisheries resource management, mariculture, marine biotechnology and bioprospecting, marine biodiversity, marine environment and pollution, climate change, socio-economic investigations, and policies. Research efforts in the open sea and coastal mariculture have resulted in technically sound and viable hatchery and farm technologies for marine finfishes, shrimps, edible oysters, mussels, clams, seaweeds, and marine pearls. The institute maintains the National Marine Living Resources Data Centre (NMLRDC) with over nine million catch and effort data records of more than 1200 fished species from all maritime states of India. ICAR-CMFRI is being counted as one of the premier research organizations in the country, and its contribution to marine stewardship is well respected in academic and policy circles and in the fishing community. The institute strives continually towards academic and scientific excellence and is dedicated to the nation’s service ever onward.
