CENTRE TO LAUNCH MARICULTURE LEASING
POLICY FOR SUSTAINABLE USE OF RESOURCES
KOCHI
Parshottam Rupala, Union Minister of Fish-
eries, An- imal Husbandry and Dairy- ing,
outlined a comprehensive plan to boost the
mariculture sector of the country, saying that
offshore cage farming is the immediate focus
using big- ger cages.
He was speaking after vis- iting the Vizhinjam
Regional Centre of the ICAR-Central Marine
Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI).
"Cage fish farming is to be expanded to the
offshore waters with better cage designs hav-

The Minister said the Centre would soon come
up with a Mariculture Leasing Policy to en-
sure the sustainable use of mariculture re-
sources. This will ensure that mari- culture
operations are loc- ated in suitable areas and
they do not cause environ- mental damage,
he said.
