A Study Of Changing Livelihoods Of Odisha’s Coastal Fishing Communities: Reasons And Effects
Journal Title: International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 6
Abstract
Fishing and fishing industry are dominant at Puri – a popular coastal town of Odisha. Traditional fishing community that belong to the Kaibarta caste live alongside the Puri beaches and the Chilika Lake. Fishing, processing, drying, and packaging are main livelihoods of these marine and riverine fishers. However, migration from adjacent states, infiltration of non-fishing caste people, and the disgruntled new generation (of traditional fisher folks) have subtly changed the livelihood patterns and socio-economic condition of the traditional fishing community of Odisha. This study has focused mainly on Puri district and studied the livelihoods of the active fishing population, and why and how they have changed.
