The objective of the present working paper is to articulate and identify areas for further training, field demonstrations and other regional issues to be addressed for the development of aquaculture in small water bodies. The other objective of this study is to identify potential areas for fisheries development in general and fish culture particularly in small water bodies. This report explains the available fishery resource use of the study area and livelihood pattern developed by experience and also the kind of gear, traps and nets adopted by the farmer/fishermen.
