- ItemTechnology transfer in fishing technology(Central Institute of Fisheries Technology, 2000)As a result of researches conducted by the Central Institute of Fisheries Technology, Cochin since its inception in I 957, several technologies have been evolved in the field of fishing craft and gear technology. In order to increase the fish productivity per unit effort, the extension organisations in the various states and union territories have a major role and these organisations exert control over vast manpower resources and budgetary allocations. Due to the existence of wide choices among the attisanal fishermen for the adoption of various indigenous and improved fishing technologies, planned schemes are required to bring about desirable changes in the technology adoption so as to improve the productivity and standard of living of fisherfolk. Further, mere allocation of funds in the plans or implementation of selected projects without appropriate extension orientation will ensure the successful technology transfer to the clientele system.
- ItemStatistical applications and data considerations in fish processing studies(Central Institute of Fisheries Technology, 2005)The statistical study deals with the collection, analysis, and interpretation of numeric data. The min problems in statistical inference can be broadly classified into two areas namely estimation of population parameter along with confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. The article highlights the statistical applications in studies related to fish processing.

- ItemEconomics of marketing of fisheries products(Central Institute of Fisheries Technology, 2003)The economic evaluation of fishery products has two distinct but complementary aspects. The first is the identification of cost-price equation and second related to the market sustainability or the credit worthiness of a product . These evaluations are carried out assuming ideal production and marketing environments ignoring both internal and external economics of production. It also describes the product choices , principles of product choices, Product life cycle, pricing of products, Fish marketing, marketing principles and functions, Organized marketing.
- ItemEconomics of fish processing- some concepts(Central Institute of Fisheries Technology, 2005)It describes some concept of fish processing in India. The dynamic food processing industry in country has largely been export oriented. Exports have steadily increased through traditional frozen products, especially shrimp, continue to dominate our products mix India has been attempting to diversify its products and frozen fish, cephalopods and specially products are also finding markets abroad. Diversification of markets, value addition, and introducing modern marketing strategies etc. can fetch better unit price for aquatic products.
