The document discusses Hilsha fish production in Bangladesh. It provides details on the life cycle and breeding of Hilsha fish as well as historical catch rates from 2002-2014. Hilsha is an important part of Bangladesh's economy and culture, with approximately 2 million people employed in its fishing and export. However, climate change and environmental degradation are negatively impacting Hilsha fish populations through effects on breeding habitats and migration routes. Conservation efforts are needed to protect this vital national resource.

caught by Bangladesh,
15% - 20% are caught by India, Pakistan
and 5% - 10% are caught by Malaysia,
Thailand, China and Sri Lanka.

18. The production of Hilsha fish is about

country
About 2% of the population is directly or
indirectly related in this fishery . It has a
great effect on our economy.

20. BANGLADESH A WORLD MODEL
FOR HILSHA FISH
 Among the 11 countries where Hilsha is
found, Bangladesh is the only country where
of this silver fish is on the rise.
 Hilsha production has been increasing at
the rate of 8% to 10% every in Bangladesh .
 World fish says , Bangladesh is the leading
country in Hilsha production with 65% of
all Hilsha.

21. Climate change impacts on
reproductive behavior of Hilsa fish
Climate change has direct and indirect
adverse effect on their reproduction,
migration and survival.
 A statistic said that one reason for the
decline in fish breeding in the river
sediment is deposited.
20/03/2016 Rafiqul Islam 21

22. Therefore , reproductive cycle is a
harmonious process interlinked
with environmentally mediated
routine of various aquatic
ecosystems.
In such case any adverse
environmental condition might
affect the natural reproduction
process of marine fish population.
20/03/2016 Rafiqul Islam 22

23. Environment of Bay of Bengal
The sedimentation loads from rivers
entering into the BoB have increased
hundred times in the last century .
The large volume of discharge of
untreated industrial wastes, pesticide
residues and fertilizer leakages-all are
dangerous to the marine environment.
20/03/2016 Rafiqul Islam 23

24. Destruction of marine habitats has
also been causing great concern for
the future of marine fisheries.
Freshwater runoff can reach up to
195,000 m/s in the monsoon
period.
20/03/2016 Rafiqul Islam 24

25. Seasonal variation in precipitation
and in the intensity and amount of
discharge causes the flood flow in
Bangladesh.
Compared to past, the intensity of
water flow has tremendously been
reduced in Bangladesh due to Farakka
barrage.
20/03/2016 Rafiqul Islam 25

26. Thus the migration routes of
Hilsha in the river basin of
Bangladesh have been affected
seriously as the water-flow from
India into Bangladesh has been
reduced during the dry summer.
