dc.description.abstract | Fisheries is one of the primary source of livelihood in Chhattisgarh and a number of community ponds have come up or have been revived under Government’s promotional programmes with fishing rights given to co-operative groups or to local SHGs. As per Jila Panchayat office, 115 SHGs are involved in fisheries related activities in Raipur. However, there is little information available regarding these SHGs. So a study was carried out to document fisheries activities undertaken by SHGs and to assess their performance in the 4 blocks of Raipur. Out of 115 SHGs, information was collected from 10 SHGs from each block making a total of 40 SHGs. Performance of SHGs was assessed using NABARD checklist which consists of 16 parameters. SHGs are rated as very good (score: 3), good (score: 2) and unsatisfactory (score: 1) based on scores on these 16 parameters. It was found that SHGs have perennial ponds taken on lease. Women were involved in i.e., seed stocking, fish harvesting and selling. Composite fish culture with Indian Major Carps and exotic carp was practiced. None of the SHG had very good performance. It was found that SHGs were formed in different plan periods. ANOVA with one way classification was done to test the difference in these SHGs with reference to performance score and found that there is no significant difference. Average performance score was 2.17 ± 0.18 which suggests good performance. Parameters where score was less were number of meetings, timings of meetings, savings collection within group and loan recoveries. Interventions are required at a large scale so as to educate and counsel the SHGs to improve their performance scores | en_US |
