    Abstract

    The Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute’s (CMFRI) cage farming initiatives started yielding results with a mega fish harvest of pearl spot, seabass and tilapia. Around 100 farmers, including women groups in Pizhala island near here, participated in cage farming enterprises under the guidance of CMFRI. The bumper catch assumes greater importance at a time when the capture fisheries are undergoing a stagnation period. The farming was started seven months ago by stocking the fish seeds in cages made of GI pipes with the size of four-metre each width and length and six-metre depth. During the harvest done prior to the Christmas, the farmers got the seabass with an average weight of 3.5 kg and pearl spot with 250 g.
