India's marine fish output rises marginally in 2019
India's marine fish production registered a marginal increase of 2.1 per cent in 2019 compared to the previous year, according to the figures released on Tuesday by the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI)
Kochi (Kerala): India's marine fish production registered a marginal increase of 2.1 per cent in 2019 compared to the previous year, according to the figures released on Tuesday by the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI).
The CMFRI report says the country recorded 3.56 million tonnes in total landings from across the coasts during 2019, with Tamil Nadu grabbing the first position in the landings with 7.75 lakh tonnes. It was followed by Gujarat with 7.49 lakh tonnes and Kerala came at the third position with 5.44 lakh tonnes.
A highlight of the report was a commercially unimportant fish - redtoothed triggerfish - which became the most landed resource of 2.74 lakh tonnes.
This fish has been in little demand in the domestic markets and is mostly caught for the purpose of feed mills.
