Abstract

In hill states where opportunities of employment are very limited, fisheries and aquaculture can play an important role for the enhancement of farmer’s income. Besides due to great portion of population comes under non­veg category, there is huge demand of fishes and other animal proteins. The gap of fish production and consumption pattern is also very big. In Jammu and Kashmir, total annual fish production is around 20,000 tons only while the consumption pattern of the entire state is very much higher. For fulfilling the animal protein demands, state has to depend on other states of country. A great portion of fish demand is being met by importing these from other states.

Keywords: Aquaculture; Rural Employment; Carp; Fisheries Based Farming System.
