    (Society of Fisheries Technologists (India), Cochin, 2005) Unnithan, G.R.; Gopal, N.; Nair, V.R.; Nasser, M.
    Results of the study on the fuel utilization pattern in the mechanized fishing sector in Kerala, India are presented. Stratified random sampling revealed the fuel consumption of 97204 kL by 3823 crafts, with an expenditure of Rs. 204 crores at the price level of 2002, during which only 55% of the fishing capacity was found utilized. The substantial fuel expenditure calls for optimum fuel utilization measures and appropriate management of fishing operations.
