3. Overview of Fisheries status in Chhattisgarh
Introduction:
Fig1. Chhattisgarh state.
India is the world's second largest producer of farmed fish, with production totalling 10.43
million ton from inland water bodies in 2020 (Handbook of fisheries statistics, 2020).
Fish as a food in India preferred by many have made the industry to expand and large number of
farmers to enter into aquaculture for their livelihood and as a business enterprise (Kumar et al., 2005
and Dey et al., 2004).
The state Chhattisgarh is the most water resourceful state in the central India and it is estimated that
1.64 lakh ha water area is available for fish culture and have 5.77 lakh tone Fish production in
2020-21.
4. Besides the state has major riverine system and their tributaries forming a network of 3573 km
(DAHDF, 2017).
Fish production in the mineral rich state Chhattisgarh had registered a growth of more than 130
per cent over a period of a decade (Anon, 2015).
A grey literature shares that more than 94% of the total freshwater bodies are under fish culture in
the state.
The production in Chhattisgarh state is estimated to be above the national average in tanks/ponds
and riverine systems.
Fig 2. This figure shows the Fish cultured area in state.

5. The productivity in community ponds is 3055 kg/ha/year against the national average of
2200kg/ha/year and the average production of reservoir is 202 kg/ha/year against the national
average of 48 kg/ha/year.
The state has brought fish culture to about 90% of the total area suitable for aquaculture.
Centrally sponsored scheme Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY) had a clear impact
which was implemented in 2007 and during that period the growth in Chhattisgarh fisheries
was 13.8% in 2008-09 which was only 1.2% in 2007-08 and then all time growth rate of
30.97% was observed during 2010-11.
Fig 3. Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY) 2007.
6. Rural Agricultural Work Experience(RAWE)
The Rural Agricultural Work Experience(RAWE) provides exposure to Fisheries students to the
natural setting of the village situation, work with the farm families identify their problems and make
use of various extension tools for transferring of the information.
This helps the students to understand the psychology of the workers, and approach to problems
along with the practices at Fish farm and to acquire entrepreneurship skills.
To make students understand the scope, functions and job responsibilities in various departments of
an organization.
Exposure to various aspects of Entrepreneurship during the program period.

8. Water Resources of Chhattisgarh
The state has about 1.64 lakh ha water area available for fish culture.
Besides the state have major riverine system and their tributaries with an area of 3573 km.
Fig 7 . This figure represent the water resource of Chhattisgarh (Source from Department of Fisheries, Govt. of C.G, 2016).
S.No Resource Area
1. Total inland water bodies 1,64,000 ha
2. Rivers and canal 3,573 km
3. Reservoirs 98,000 ha
4. Tanks and ponds 75,000 lakh ha
9. The total number of reservoir in the state is 1770 covering an area of 0.98 lakh ha.
Although 99% reservoir belongs to small category but they account for about 54% of
total reservoir area in the state.
The area under medium and large reservoirs is 25% and 21% respectively.
The state has 59591 rural/village ponds covering 0.75 lakh ha.
Accounting to all these resources the total water area in the state is 1.64 lakh ha water area
available for fisheries development during 2013-14.
Fig 8. This figure shows the area coverd by different reservoirs of Chhattisgarh.

10. Remarkably out of the available water resources 0.68 lakh ha rural pond area and 0.86 lakh
ha irrigation reservoir water area, thus totalling 1.54 lakh ha water has already been
brought under fish culture by 2015-16.
The total area under fish culture developed in state is 1.54 lakh ha against the available 1.64
lakh ha. This indicates that there is still scope to expand the area under fish culture in the
state.
However, in spite of various schemes implemented through Fisheries Department and other
organizations the resources are yet to be fully exploited.
Small reservoirs (Dubri) have a greater potential for production of fish.
Fig 9. This figure shows the water area which comes under fish culture.

11. As per new policy of the government in the state all the water bodies have been leased out under the
panchayat (60%), fish federation (3%), Fisheries Department (26%) and private (11%).
The northern part of the state lies on the edge of the great Indo Gangetic plain and the southern part of
the lies on the Deccan plateau, in the watershed of Godavari river and its tributary Indravati river.
The Mahanadi is the chief river of the state, other main rivers are Shivnath, Hasdeo,
Rihand,Indravati, Jonk and Arpa.
The state is crisscrossed by several rivers, rivulets, streams and streamlets run 3573 km. The state is
situated amidst lush green hills and plateaus, is interspersed and due to the presence of natural drainage
systems,Chhattisgarh is blessed abundantly with prolific and fertile plains.

12. Species Cultured
Indian major carps are predominantly cultured, however minor carps, barbs and catfish
categories of fishes also find a place.
Major species cultured are Rohu (Labeo rohita), Catla(Catla catla) ,Mrigal (Cirrhinus
mrigala),Grass Carp(Ctenopharyngodon idella) ,Common Carp (Cyprinus
carpio),Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix).
In recent years,attempts have been to develop the culture of fish like Pangasius, Climbing
perch (Anabas testudineus) and Murrels(Channa sp.). The other species cultured is
monosex tilapia(hybrid of O. hornorum with O. mossambicus or O.niloticus).

17. Species Cultured and diversification
Indian major carps are predominantly cultured, however minor carps, barbs and catfish categories of
fishes also find a place.
Major species cultured are Rohu (Labeo rohita), Catla(Catla catla) ,Mrigal (Cirrhinus
mrigala),Grass Carp(Ctenopharyngodon idella) ,Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio),Silver Carp
(Hypophthalmichthys molitrix).
In recent years,attempts have been to develop the culture of fish like Pangasius, Climbing perch
(Anabas testudineus) and Murrels(Channa sp.). The other species cultured is monosex tilapia(hybrid
of O. hornorum with O. mossambicus or O.niloticus).
Fig 5. Indian Major carps and Minor Craps.
18. Prevailing culture systems
Composite carp culture with three Indian major carps and three exotic carps viz. common carp,
silver carp and grass carp forms the basis for carp polyculture system practiced by farmers in the
state.
Monosex and monoculture of tilapia was initiated by the Department of Fisheries (DoF), in Motitalav
of Jagadalpur district on trial basis. DoF initiative cultured monosex tilapia species is a hybrid of O.
hornorum with O. mossambicus or O. niloticus.
Fig 6. Indian Major Carps and Minor Carps. Fig 7. Monosex Tilapia.
19. M. K. Fisheries, Raipur have established the tilapia hatchery for seed production.
The state has also adopted the cage culture technology at Sarodha reservoir in
Kabirdham district in 2011-12 under National Mission for Protein Supplements Scheme.
Fig 8. Cage culture , Kawardha, Chhattisgarh.
20. Status of Fish Productivity in Chhattisgarh
Data resource from state indicate the average fish production in rural pond production is
3287kg/hac/year against the national average of 2200kg/hac/year and the average production of
reservoir is 222kg/hac/year against national average 48Kg/hac/year.(DOF 2019-20).
In addition to that state is near to the potential yield of reservoir at national level being 250 kg/hac/year.
Comparing the national average the productivity of fish in the state is higher than the national average .
Some progressive farmers in the state who are successfully harvesting 8000 to 12000 kg/hac/ carp fish
production and up to 70 tonne pungasius fish production.

22. Status of Fish production in Chhattisgarh
Chhattisgarh is now 6th largest producer of inland fish and 5th largest producer of fish
seed in india
Chhattisgarh contribute almost 2 percent of country inland fish production which is
encouraging for the state to enhance the same to generate more livelihood for its people .
State fish is mostly cultured based in which major carp fish group play a leading role.
Fig 9. Indian Major Carps.
23. Availability of 88671 ponds covering 1.083 lakhs hectare water area is the main asset on which
culture fishes rest .
Fish production ha increased from 3.4 lakh tonne in 2015--16 to 5.77 lakh tonne in 2020-21 and
recorded average growth rate 315% (DOF)

29. Leasing Policy for water resources in Chhattisgarh
Leasing policy has a better say in aquaculture.
That it is understood that although in many states in order to have secured access over
water bodies by the fisher communities lease period has been mentioned as 5 years.
The state Chhattisgarh has a unique leasing policy which has been supportive for the
fisheries development of the state.
30. Leasing policy of the state
Water resource – less than 10 ha water bodies.
Authority to lease out – Gram Panchayat .
Duration – 10 years.
Rs. 1500/- ha/year.

35. Why Chhattisgarh is Prominent in Aquaculture
There has been a huge jump of fish seed production in the state which is due to the spurt of
private entrepreneurs who have entered into the business.
Fig1. This figure shows the fish production growth in Chhattisgarh (Source Department of Fisheries Chhattisgarh.)
Government policy to lease out the public hatcheries was also another factor.

36. Use of floating fish feeds will save 10-20% money of farmers as compare to sinking fish feed,
which is highly useful in feed waste control.
Fig3. This figure shows the floating feed.
Input based Aquaculture where Feed is the critical input across the culture systems (tanks, ponds
and reservoirs) that boosts the fish production in the state.
Fig4. This figure shows the input based culture eg: pond culture.
37. Government supplies fingerlings to the other reservoirs and ponds of our country which came as a boon for the
state.
Fig 5. This figure shows the fish seed transportation.
Government has provided assistance to fish farmers engaged in reservoirs and ponds for fisheries development so that
they can build their capacity which is an important input for scientific farming.
The extension workers of the Department of Fisheries have been trained in the latest scientific management practice
which also play’s a major role in providing advices to farmers of our state.
Fig 6. Fisheries College Chhattisgarh.
38. The implementation of schemes like Rastriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY) 2007.(creation of new
water bodies, establishment of hatcheries, strengthening the government owned hatcheries, expanding
seed rearing areas etc)that project have made great impact upon Chhattisgarh Fisheries growth more
than 30.97% in every year.
Fig 7. Rastriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY) 2007.
In addition to that the best practices adopted in the state were cage culture in reservoirs, pangasius
and tilapia culture in ponds, construction of ponds, seed production In seasonal ponds and mapping of
small water bodies for fish culture also play’s an important role fisheries development in Chhattisgarh.
Fig 8. This figure shows the Cage culture farm of Chhattisgarh.
39. The Blue Revolution scheme (1985-1990) was launched by The Government of
India during the 7th Five year plan their main aim is to enhance the production and
productivity of Aquaculture and Fisheries both from inland and marine sector.
Promoting an encouraging the economically backward sections like the Scheduled
Castes, Sheduled Tribes farmers towards fishing.

44. Conclusion
The project work concludes that adoption of scientific management with helpful government support
has made Chhattisgarh fisheries prominent in country . Expansion of area under Aquaculture in the state
has been in a progress in increasing seed production ,Adoption of best aquaculture practices that are
mention plays important role in Fisheries development in our state . At present more then 2.4 lakh
fish farmers in the state are involved in various fisheries activities generating more then 150.14 lakh
employment annualy fisheries department . Government schemes helps in terms of inputs, technology
and disease management for further progress in Fisheries department in our state .Along with this
government is also focusing on non-food fisheries activities specially in Pearl farming (Jai Maa
Santoshi Women self help group of Jagdalpur, Chhattisgarh) and Ornamental fish farming(KVK
Raipur, Chhattisgarh).
