Abstract:
Induction of growth in the primary marine
fishing industry of Kerala is a sine gua Qgn for improving
the economy of the fishermen, the state's domestic
product as well as earning more foreign exchange for the
country. The State Administration has been trying to
instil growth into the industry eversince the output
of the industry showed marked sign of decline (particularly
after 1975). Significantly, it has attempted to strengthen
the traditional sector, (which is considered to be the
crucial sector of the primary marine fishing industry of
the state) by introducing intermediate technology and by
revamping the organisational structure of the industry.
But it appears that the production system in the primary
marine fishing industry of Kerala has been severely
constrained by the existing technology, organisation of
production and marketing institutions. Regeneration of growth in the industry calls forth an understanding
of the 'process' of growth in the industry and the
need to réorganise it with new technology, and new
organisations. The present study is an attempt to
unraval the process of growth in the primary marine
fishing industry of Kerala since 1951
