商品描述
This book offers an overview of the small-scale inland fisheries sector in India, a crucial yet often overlooked component of the nation's livelihood and poverty alleviation efforts. By examining the management systems across the social-ecological realms, it highlights the urgent need to integrate small-scale inland fisheries into global and national policies. Key topics include nutritional security, governance, gender, climate change and policy frameworks, supported by relevant case studies. Readers can explore the unique characteristics of inland fisheries across India's eco-regions, from the riverine ecosystems of the Himalayan Ganga and Brahmaputra to the mangrove fisheries in Sundarbans. The book traces the evolution of small-scale fisheries from natural to stock-based systems, showcasing the resilience of fishers in adapting to climate change and other challenges. It also highlights the role of community-based organizations in promoting sustainable practices and improved market access. This book serves as a vital reference for researchers, policymakers and students of fisheries.
