Abstract

During the period 1980-'89 Tamil Nadu contributed an estimated annual average of 2.6 lakh tonnes of marine fish forming 16% of the total all India fish production. Apart from the traditional craft and gear operated along the inshore region, expansion of the mechanised vessels fleet especially trawlers has significantly contributed in exploiting the productive ground fish resources along the coast.
