Abstract

ICAR-CMFRI established in year 1947, is over 75 years old and has emerged as a leading tropical marine fisheries research institute in the world. Its focus on marine fisheries biology over the years has created a unique historical database of over 9 million catch and effort data records from all maritime states of India. It is also a source of information on the bioeconomic characteristics of exploited marine finfish and shellfish stocks in the Indian EEZ. During the 70s, mariculture research needs were also addressed. This has helped the institute to perform well as a reliable knowledge partner to address the needs of various stakeholders. Development of specific fisheries management plans, studies related to climate change effects on marine habitats as well as marine fishers’ livelihoods along with support for sea-farming and sustainable mariculture is reflected in the various activities that the institute took up during the quarter.
