Abstract
Shri. V. Nagathass, 56 years old from Vedalai village in the Ramanathapuram district of Tamil Nadu had formal education up to 9th standard only. From the age of 12, he took to adventure by involving in fishing activities for his livelihood. Dwindling fish catches made him realise that there is an immediate need for a diversified livelihood option. At this juncture, the demonstration of lobster farming through CaptureBased Aquaculture in open sea cages by the Mandapam Regional Centre of ICAR-CMFRI in the year 2009 created awareness towards farming in the sea and gave him hope for the future.
