providing nutritional security to the food basket, contributing to the agricultural
exports and engaging about fourteen million people in varied activities. With diverse
resources ranging from deep seas to lakes in the mountains and more than 10 percent
of the global biodiversity in terms of fish and shellfish species, the country has
shown continuous and sustained growth in fish production since Independence.
Constituting about 4.4 percent of the global fish production, the sector contributes
to 1.07 percent of the GDP and 4.7 percent of the agricultural GDP. The total fish
production of 6.4 million metric tonnes presently has nearly 55 percent contribution
from the inland sector and nearly the same from culture fisheries. Paradigm shifts in
terms of increasing contributions from inland sector and further from aquaculture
are significant over the years, with high growth rates. The different facets of marine
fisheries, coastal aquaculture, and fisheries are increasingly being diversified,
contributing to food, health, economy, exports, employment and tourism of the
country.
The present chapter intends to summarise the findings in the foregoing
comprehensive analysis. It seeks to make a set of suggestions while highlighting
various aspects of production and exports, it also analyses factors contributing to the
exports of seafood exports in Ernakulum District. This study makes an effort to bring
out the problems and prospects of the marine fishery sector, it further makes some
indication for future research.
