Scientists travelling to villages for direct engagement with fish farmers and fishers

Scientists from India’s ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) have embarked on a two-week-long outreach programme to directly engage with fish farmers and fishermen across the country as part of the central government’s new “Viksit Krishi Sankalp Abhiyan” programme. The institute will leverage the campaign to popularise cutting-edge technologies, with the aim to enhance India’s mariculture production through wider adoption.
