Abstract

The Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) has received ₹9 crore from the Centre to set up national brood banks of marine fish such as cobia and pompano. The Department of Animal Husbandry, Dairying and Fisheries approved CMFRI’s proposal to enhance production of farmed cobia and pompano through the establishment of brood banks and supply of larvae to all coastal States for seed production. The brood-bank will be set up at the Mandapam and Vizhinjam regional centres of CMFRI and the regional hatcheries will be established in all maritime States. They will have a quarantine facility, brood-stock holding tanks, recirculation aquaculture systems and photothermal control systems.
