It is sincerely hoped that this book will fill the existing lacunae in the available information on the deep-sea fisheries. It would be useful to students at graduate and post-graduate levels studying capture fisheries and in particular the offshore fisheries, to the entrepreneurs who wish to enter this profitable venture in fisheries, to the policy makers to make practical decision with wisdom and to scientists for suggesting reasonable and lasting measures of management to obtain maximum benefit from the fishery resources in general and the deep-sea fishery resources in particular. Some of the subjects dealt in this book are not available in any of the available books on fisheries. Apart from dealing with the general subjects the book gives detailed information on Joint Ventures and Charters of foreign fishing companies and the related policy decisions from time to time, Bioeconomic analysis of fisheries, Closed season of fisheries and other management measures applicable to Indian fisheries. I am sure that the book would receive the attention of a number of people engaged in the study of marine fisheries.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR G. Sudhakara Rao

After getting my M.Sc. degree from the Gorakhpur University I joined the Central Marine Fisheries research Institute (CMFRI) in 1963. During my 37 years of research on marine fisheries in CMFRI I devoted much of my time in the study of prawn fisheries, both capture and culture, at Gopalpur (Orissa), Kakinada (Andhra Pradesh), Veraval (Gujarat), Visakhapatnum (Andhra Pradesh) and Cochin (Kerala) in different capacities. I also spent some time on the studies of demersal fisheries, crab fisheries. My work on the population dynamics of penaeid prawns attracted the attention of the FAO scientists and I collaborated with them in the study of Bioeconomics of Demersal Fisheries of Northeast coast of India and training of scientists in the application of Beam-4 program in fisheries. I published 46 research papers on different aspects of marine fisheries. Before retiring in June 2000 worked as Head of Division, Crustacean Fisheries Division of CMFRI for 4 years.
