General note Freshwater aquaculture can play a pivotal role in improving the state’s economy and solving the nutritional problems besides acting as a tool for rural development. It offers tremendous potentialities for providing employment opportunities to the vast rural poor and unemployed youths. Among freshwater fish species, murrels (snakeheads) and catfishes secure the top rank economically. Murrels have long been commercially cultured in Thailand, Taiwan and Philippines. Fishing in open seas is a typical illustration of a situation where the tragedy of the commons is likely to occur. All the conditions described by Hardin are met in this case: an unrestricted number of users, unfettered by any limits on their access, extract an increasing share of a resource until natural resources are severely depleted, sometimes to the point of no return. Fishers tend to have little incentive to practice conservation, for they know that if they do not catch the available fish, someone else probably will. Without limits in place, fishers try to catch as many fish as they possibly can. Many traditional societies have evolved rules limiting the seasons or days when particular seafood species could be harvested or the amount that could be taken. In recent years these rules have in many cases been swept aside, in part due to population pressures. Other reasons for a breakdown in the balance have included institutional failures, when some interest from outside of the community acquires the power to override the traditional patterns of property rights. With the introduction of modern vessels like commercial trawlers, fishing became an operation of massive harvesting without discrimination.The book give a comprehensive overview of the fishery science and also offers diverse information on the subject of fishery culture. Besides students and teachers, the contents of the book will be of great value to all those engaged in fisheries and aquaculture.
