    Awareness of Fisherfolk on Fisheries Resource Management Issues: A Case Study
    (Society of Fisheries Technologists (India)Cochin, 2010) Senthiladeban, R.; Rajkumar, M.; Sukumar, D.
    The low level of awareness of fishermen on pollution problems and their reluctance to follow and adopt the hygienic practices could be reduced by conducting sufficient onshore pollution abatement programmes and training and demonstration on onboard hygienic handling. Once the fishermen are assured of getting higher prices for their fish catch they will readily come forward to adopt any practices even if they have to incur additional costs. This is more evident by the large scale adoption of Global Positioning System by the present generation fishermen. Hence it is imperative of all other stakeholders to encourage fishermen to change their attitude towardsfisheries resources and development measures to the present trend
