Fisheries and aquaculture sector has witnessed rapid development across the states of India and has paved way for income generation and livelihood for associated rural and urban communities. Maharashtra state ranks 7^th with around 5 % share in country’s fish production, is yet to explore its untapped potential completely. Marine fisheries had always a major share (currently 82 %) compared to inland fisheries (currently 18 %) for Maharashtra. The cyclic vulnerability of marine catch and growing demand of ever increasing human population provides scope for increasing share of inland fisheries in food basket. The systematic structuring of policies and rigid implementation of the regulations for sustainable utilization of the available fisheries resources needs attention for further growth in fisheries sector of the state.

印度马哈拉施特拉邦渔业和水产养殖的现状与招股说明书

渔业和水产养殖业在印度各邦得到了迅速发展，并为相关的农村和城市社区创收和谋生铺平了道路。Maharashtra邦排名7^日占该国鱼类产量约5％的国家，尚未完全发掘其尚未开发的潜力。与马哈拉施特拉邦的内陆渔业（目前为18％）相比，海洋渔业一直占主要份额（目前为82％）。海洋捕捞的周期性脆弱性和不断增长的人口需求的增长为扩大内陆渔业在食品篮子中的份额提供了空间。为使国家渔业部门进一步发展，需要注意系统地制定政策结构和严格执行条例以可持续利用现有渔业资源。
