Handbook of Fisheries and Aquaculture

The first edition of the Handbook of Fisheries and aquaculture is an effort to document present status, developments and future possibilities in different areas. While major fisheries in terms of resources including island fisheries have been presented, emphasis has also been laid on different culture systems in marine, brackish and freshwater environments. Chapters on fish in human nutrition, disaster management and information communication technology in fisheries, bring out the new approaches in the field. This book would be useful to students, researchers, planners, farmers and all stakeholders in fisheries and aquaculture. This is the first attempt in our endeavour to provide comprehensive information in all areas of fisheries and aquaculture.
