Abstract

Oil sardine, Sardinella longiceps is a highly favoured fish in Kerala, due to the unique taste of locally caught sardines, as perceived by many fish consumers in the state. Normally, the oil sardine forms the major catch of traditional fisherman in Kerala almost around the year. Recently, after the peak landings in 2012, catches have showed drastic decline with the trend continuing in 2016 also (Fig. 1). It directly affected the livelihood of thousands of local ringseine fishermen.
