    Wood preservation
    (Central Institute of Fisheries Technology, 2000) Edwin, L.
    Timber in various forms is subjected to biodeterioration. Traditional crafts are mostly affected by wood rotting fungi; and mechanised boats by marine wood boring and fouling organisms. Fishermen resort to various types of indigenous preparations, majority of which are found not giving proper protection as established by CIFT's investigations. Chemical wood preservatives with toxic ingredients, when properly treated can give adequate protection to wooden structures against decaying organisms.

The net is towed along the bottom of the sea or through column waters with its mouth open. The fish or prawn, which encounter the net, enters through the mouth and finally collected in the cod end.
