EEZ Exclusive Economic Zone

The EEZ of India can be further divided into the following regions:

WEST COAST=42% OF EEZ
EAST COAST=28% OF EEZ
North West South West Lower East Upper East
Gujarat & Maharashtra Goa, Karnataka & Kerala Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh & Pondicherry Orissa & West Bengal
Remaining EEZ area under Andaman and the Nicobar Islands. Andaman- Nicobar Lakshadweep 6 lakhs sq km EEZ 4 lakh sq km EEZ There is immense potential for import of fish into India from neighboring countries in South Asia and South East Asia. Indian fisheries sector classification 1. Marine A. Deep Sea Fishing B. Coastal Fishing 2. Inland (Freshwater) 3. Aquaculture
Supply chain: Fisheries
click to enlarge Supply Chain of Fish Among all Desi food processing industries, Fish processing supply chain = shortest. Because in most of the cases, fishermen themselves sell their catch directly to consumers via local wet fish markets. Alternate channels for distribution: Fishermen=> commission agents=> Fish market.
9/21/13
Saltwater@Upstream
1. Arabian sea=broader continental shelf=fish production higher than Eastern coast. 2. Despite government ban, fisherman use fine-sized net= even Juvenile fish are being caught. 3. 30% to 40% of the catch is discarded by fishermen in high seas because juvenile fish who dont fetch good prices in market= resource lost. 4. During breeding season, fishing is banned in coastal waters. But the authorities dont enforce it strictly. 5. Lack of surveillance of territorial waters= even outsiders (Pakistani fishermen) do illegal fishing in our area. 6. The EEZ around Andaman-Nicobar and Lakshadweep confluences with international waters. This makes these Island territories vulnerable to illegal Fishing by foreign vessels. 7. Most fishing vessels dont have facility to freeze the fish onboard immediately after catching= quality deterioration before they reach the coast. 8. unregulated fishing of highly migratory species just outside the EEZ=negative impact on Marine biodiversity. 9. Most vessel dont have special equipment to do deep water fishing beyond depth of 400m. Example yellow fin tuna found around Lakshadweep islands. Theyre almost unexploited since the technology for deep long lining is not prevalent in the Islands.
Freshwater@Upstream
For inland fisheries, two big players= WB+Andhra. But even those state governments not enforcing fishing net size in rivers, lakes and reservoirs= juvenile fish caught and discarded. Fishing ban during breeding season not strictly enforced.
Aquaculture@upstream
National Fisheries Development Board vs. Department of Animal Husbandry, Dairying and Fisheries. Their jurisdictions/responsibilities are still not clearly defined Result: overlapping, lack of synergy. Freshwater aquaculture, contributed to the Blue Revolution in the country in late 1970s. But not it is now almost stagnating in terms of yield rates. Fish production can be enhanced 2 to 4 times by creating more rainfed water bodies via MNREGA labour. But this potential is largely ignored.

AQUACULTURE
Fish feed not available at reasonable prices. Most farmers are small/marginal, dont know best practices in cultivation, post-harvest management for fish farming. waste disposal done in hygienic manner= environmental implications
Shrimp-farming@Upstream
Nellor District, AP= Shrimp Capital of India. Pink revolution=Shrimp. Disease free brooder stock (parent shrimps)= not available. Hence their next generation is also diseased. If you import the brooder stock=there are no regulation/quality checks =infected stock=>the shrimps thus grown have variety of disease=rejected in US/EU for export. For aquaculture/shrimp culture, you need to get approval from State fisheries Department. But Often, the state departments take 3-6 months to scrutinize documents= project implementation delayed. Imported feed or antibiotics=>high custom duty=expensive. Therefore lot of Chinese/counterfeit/spurious products in market. Farmer unknowingly uses such input= antibiotic traces found in Indian shrimps=>theyre rejected in US/EU market. feed cost accounts for 50% of the total cost Government investment in research for low cost feed and technology required. Need to educate farmers on modern techniques of shrimp farming so they can enhance the quality and body weight of shrimps. but there is shortage of extension staff for fisheries in state departments.

NOTABLE PLAYERS
Adani Exports, Hindustan Lever Ltd, Ruchi Worldwide, Vishal Exports, Aditya Enterprises ,Liberty, Falcon Marine. Potable water is not available at landing and cleaning sheds at the ports. EU specifies more than 50 parameters of water, If traces of these chemicals are detected= product rejected. (and as you can guess, our exports are often rejected.) Need Focused research to develop low-cost packaging for seafood products, both for the export + domestic market. Even for exports, our fish-processing is primary/basic level We merely freeze/mince the fishes/shrimps and export them to China/Thailand/Japan. They do more value-addition and create variety of readyto-eat fish food (e.g. sushi shrimps) =>export to US/EU @higher prices. To comply with US/EU/HACCP regulation, we need huge capital investments to upgrade our processing units.

@Downstream
More than 1/3rd of Indians eat fish but demand for processed fish=limited because Indian consumer prefer wet (fresh) fish rather than processed fish. Cost of processed fish product= 20-25% higher than fresh fish.(due to indirect taxes) Desi Consumers prefer to buy fresh fish from wet markets and process it at home Therefore, Indian fish processing segment=entirely export-oriented, due to lack of local/domestic demand Fish prices more than doubled during the Eleventh Plan, a higher inflation than either crops or any other livestock segment. This is negatively affecting business and demand. There is inadequate awareness about nutritional benefits of

MARKETING
fish. Need marketing campaign to increase desi-demandshowing hygienic, healthy, consistent quality of branded, packaged fish products over the unhygienic macchi-market. Large number of retailers are unable to sell processed fish products because they dont have due to cooling storage facilities + electricity problems. We dont export Ready to eat marine products in significant volumes, because we are not aware of varied tastes and cuisines in different regions of the world need investment in marketing research in foreign consumers food preferences. US Department of Commerce has imposed an antidumping duty on Indian Shrimp. more on dumping, already discussed click me US/EU/foreign countries often reject our fish/shrimp cargos for traces of antibiotics, heavy-metals, foul smell.

Government Policies/Schemes
Jurisdiction: Marine fisheries within the territorial waters are the subject of maritime states Fisheries beyond this limit within the EEZ fall in the jurisdiction of Centre Central Government. States
Comprehensive Marine Fishing Policy, 2004

By Department of Animal Husbandry & Dairying, Ministry of Agriculture Three main objectives: 1) boost export 2)socio-economic welfare of fishermen 3) protect marine ecology/biodiversity ACTIVITY 1. SUBSISTENCE FISHING 2. SMALL-SCALE
policy will address following: protection + welfare

FISHING
technology transfer to small scale sector work out strategy for fishing in Antarctic waters by Indian owned vessels infrastructure support, Joint Venture for fish processing and export PPP: Build-Operate-Own and Build- OperateTransfer systems.
3. INDUSTRIAL FISHING
Salient Features of this policy 1. ATTENTION TO CONSUMERS increase per capita (fish) protein intake Attention to consumer rights. Ensuring food safety, mandatory bar coding and packaging for sale of fish products. Ensure international quality and food safety in fish and fishery products. Ensure Hygiene in fishing harbor and processing centers. Protect consumers from fish contaminated with heavy metals and other hazardous chemicals discharged from industrial establishments. eco labeling of marine products 2. ATTENTION TO FISHERMEN Each fisherman household would be given a card for easy identification. Strengthen Cooperative movement of fishermen Uniformity in central-state welfare schemes for fisherman. Greater participation of cooperatives, NGOs and local selfGovernments Government to contribute towards Insurance scheme for only those fishermen who do not own a boat. Fishermen Housing Schemes will unified and implemented as a master plan through a national agency. 3. ATTENTION TO ENVIRONMENT responsible and sustainable fishing practices to Preserve environment and biodiversity Strict ban on all types of destructive methods of fishing. Regulate Mesh sizes in different parts of the fishing gear. Penalties for violations of mesh regulations. Prohibit Catching of juveniles and non- targeted species=prohibited greater liaison between Central and State Pollution Control Board to control all industrial establishments discharging effluents in to the sea Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) in effluent discharge systems will be made mandatory. Mangrove plantation in Coastal areas. 4. ATTENTION TO FANCY THINGS: HRD, R&D, use of IT, strengthening marine database via satellites etc.
National Fisheries Development Board (NFDB)

9/21/13
HQ: Hyderabad. For both inland and marine fish. Promotes following 1. Accelerated development of the fisheries and aquaculture in a sustainable manner 2. Hygienic development of wholesale and retail markets 3. Mariculture (cultivation of marine organized in enclosed section of ocean / pond / tank etc. Example: prawn, pearls, agar etc) 4. Training to fishermen/fish farmers
Government Schemes
Component of Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana. to promote production of animal based protein through livestock development, dairy farming, pig and goat rearing and fisheries fish farmers were provided assistance for freshwater aquaculture. ~30000 already benefitted under 11th FYP. development of 13 fishing harbors and 4 fish landing centres, 4 fishing harbors were repaired and renovated. (11th FYP) safety appliances provided Under the scheme, inland water bodies are surveyed and mapped in the States. Work already finished in W.Bengal.

Fishermen Welfare Scheme

In the 90s, there were multiple schemes for fishermen welfare but in mid-2000s, all of them combined into single Centrally Sponsored National Scheme on Welfare of Fishermen (duh, no catchy name/abbreviation, not named after you know who. but then again, scheme falls under Department of Animal Husbandry & Dairying= under Sharad Pawar=not directly under you know whos party.) anyways, this scheme has:

fishermen (both inland and marine) will be given basic civic amenities like houses, drinking water, tube-well and commonplace for recreation and work. for housing- Preference will be given to fishermen below poverty line and to landless fishermen. Group Accident Insurance for Active Fishermen. Rs 50,000/- against death or permanent total disability and Rs 25,000/- for partial permanent disability. 50:50 cost sharing by Center:state during the fishing season (8 month), fisherman will give Rs.600, + government will contribute another Rs. 600. (total 1200)= this plus bank-interest will be given to fisherman during lean season (remaining 4 months of the year) self explanatory to update knowledge and improving skills of fishers in regard to modern fishing technology.

DANIDA, NORAD, ODA (UK and Japan) provide aid to India for the development of fisheries sector . (UK) has provided technical aid for the prevention of post-harvest losses in marine fisheries. Recently, FAO launched a scheme for providing technical assistance to implement Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) in seafood processing industries.
State governments
They need to do following: 1. Enforce fishing holidays during breeding season. 2. Awareness camps to educate the fishermen on importance of the breeding cycle of the fish to replenish the stock. 3. Regulate fishing net size. 30 mm mesh size should be standardized for use. 4. Announce specific financing schemes for purchase of requisite vessels and equipment 5. Allow only a sustainable number of vessels to operate in the coastal waters. Dont give license to everyone. 6. Leasing of coastal zones There is need to consider leasing of coastal zones on a long term basis (30 years) to private sector players, for introduction of advanced mariculture technologies such as cage culture, pen culture etc. for augmenting fish production.
