Foreword

Asian countries derive substantial economic, social and nutritional benefits from fisheries sector with significance for rural development and poverty alleviation. In India, the sector has been recognized as a powerful income and employment generator to over 14 million fishers and farmers, majority of whom live in over 4,114 coastal villages, besides hamlets along major river basins and reservoirs. The sector offers cheap and quality animal protein to the people ensuring nutritional security and through the export earnings worth ` 12,902 crores which is equal to US$ 2,860 million and a number of subsidiary industries, which plays a major role in stimulating and strengthening the economic growth of the nation. However, several issues such as coastal overfishing, depletion of fish stocks, impact of climate change on biodiversity and abundance, disease in aquaculture and trade related issues have emerged in recent years. Demand projections for fish by 2012 is 9.99 million tonnes at an estimated annual consumption growth rate of 3.5% and the required annual growth rate for meeting the demand would be in the order of 5.4%. All these call for an integrated strategic planning at the national level and it is time to take stock of our achievements, capabilities, challenges as well as opportunities.

The Asian Fisheries Society – Indian Branch (AFSIB) since its inception in 1986, has been providing a platform for discussion at the national level on issues related to research, development, education and policies by organizing Indian Fisheries Forum (IFF) every three years in different parts of the country. The 9

^th

Indian Fisheries Forum (9

^th

iff) will be hosted by the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI), at Chennai during 19-23 December 2011. The main theme of the 9

^th

iff is “Renaissance in Fisheries: Outlook & Strategies”. It would have a comprehensive look for the fisheries and aquaculture sectors, for achieving greater synergy among the stakeholders and planning strategies for capture fisheries and aquafarming to build higher levels of sustainability and profitability. The forum would also address the issues of impact of climate change and its mitigation, resource constraint and species diversification for the expansion of fish production activity; and encourage young scientists to undertake need-based and resource specific research. An international symposium sponsored by the Bay of Bengal Large Marine Ecosystem (BoBLME) is scheduled to be held during the forum on 21 December, 2011 with theme: Bay of Bengal–Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management.

The 10 scientific sessions cover thematic areas of contemporary interests such as (i) Fishery resources, recreational fisheries and sustainable management, (ii) Aquaculture production and management, (iii) Fish health and nutrition, (iv) Genetics, breeding and biotechnology, (v) Environment impacts and aquatic health, (vi) Harvest and post-harvest technology, (vii) Socio-economics, marketing and livelihood, (viii) Fisheries trade, policies and governance, (ix) Climate change and natural disaster management, and (x) Fish and fish related biodiversity. Each session will also have a lead lecture by an invited expert, followed by oral presentations of selected research papers. The papers presented in the forum will be subjected to scientific review for publishing in the Indian Journal of Fisheries (NAAS Rating 4.9), a journal published by CMFRI on behalf of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), New Delhi.

Ever since the announcement of the 9

^th

iff, there has been an overwhelming response and a record

number of 645 abstracts were accepted, which include 422 oral presentations and 223 poster

presentations. This indicates the immense trust of the Indian Fisheries fraternity in Central Marine

Fisheries Research Institute - the premier fisheries research institution in the entire South Asia. The

abstract committee has included as many abstracts as possible in the oral/platform presentation

category, with parallel sessions for different themes on each day. The diversity and depth of the

topics covered in the book of abstracts highlight the intensity of fisheries research going on in the

iv

country and imparts us the confidence that we all are concerned about sustainability, equitability and inclusive development. I would like to congratulate the Editorial Board for their untiring efforts in editing, making the lay-out, designing the cover page, proof reading and bringing out the Book of Abstracts. All those who have toiled behind the screen to bring out this milestone document in the history of Indian fisheries are gratefully acknowledged. I profusely thank the Bay of Bengal Programme Inter-Governmental Organization (BOBP-IGO), Chennai for the timely printing of the Book of Abstracts.

We extend a warm and hearty welcome to all the participants at the 9

^th

iff. The venue will be

“IMAGE” (Indian bank Management Centre for Growth and Excellence) at R.A. Puram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu. We expect your full involvement in scientific sessions and hope you will enjoy the stay in Chennai.
