Abstract

As a preparatory step for the Fifth Marine Fisheries Census (MFC-2025), the Department of Fisheries (DoF), Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying, govt of India, launched a nationwide validation and georeferencing of marine fishing villages through ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI). The Mangalore Regional Centre of ICAR-CMFRI will carry out the process for the coastal districts of Karnataka. This census is undertaken under the Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana (PMMSY), with CMFRI serving as the nodal agency for implementation across India. The exercise aims to establish an accurate and up-to-date framework of marine fishing villages across India's coastline and island territories, laying the foundation for a household-level enumeration scheduled for later in the year. Over the next two weeks, 108 officials from CMFRI and the Fishery Survey of India (FSI) will visit every marine fishing village to verify its status, delineate boundaries, and compile an updated village frame.
