Abstract

The all-India average annual landing of the mackerel in 34 years of 1950-'83 period was 66,584 tonnes. The mackerel season in the country falls during September-April period. Monitoring resource characteristics on the mackerel at present is being carried out when they are already recruited and commercially being exploited. Mackerel fishery in its long term fluctuations shows a 10-year cycle with ups and downs, and the current trend, notwithstanding is not encouraging. Whether it is caused by human interference and intrusion into their nurseries or due to fishery independent environmental factors
