Economics of Fish Production at Kalna and Its Adjacent Areas, Burdwan District, West Bengal, India
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Biology - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Culture of fish involves various processes like preparation and management of pond, liming, removal of weeds and weedivorous fish, nurturing the desirable species in a scientific manner and harvesting the fish. Profitability depends upon proper management of all the operations involved in the fish cultural activities. It also depends on factors like productivity, cost of production, and market price of the product. Minimization of cost and maximization of productivity help to improve the profitability. This paper highlights the production, productivity and profitability of fisheries in and around Burdwan based on the results of a primary survey conducted among the selected fishermen household units (Samudragarh (23°34’N and 88°32’E); Dhatrigram (23°27’N and 88°31’E) and Kalna (23°22’N and 88°34’E).
