Inland Fisheries

Inland Fisheries: It includes fishery in freshwater and brackish water. Freshwater resources include canals, ponds, reservoirs and rivers. Brackish water resources, where seawater and freshwater mix together such as estuaries and lagoons, are also important fish reservoirs. However, the yield of capture fishing is not high in such inland water bodies. Thus, most high fish production from these resources is done through aquaculture. Sometimes fish culture is done in combination with rice crops, so that paddy crop gets ample of water and fishes get food.
