Sustainable small scale Fisheries are usually first to reuse of existing tanks, in the villages/rural areas.

Besides this, encourage to collaborate with Agriculture and enhance of watersheds/rainwater harvested projects encouraged with fish farming.

Use of backwaters of rivers and Oceans

Usually rivers and oceans goes with big farming and cooperative systems of farming. Hence the above two methods are important to make a livelihood. Most important thing is that everywhere there are certain populations, who have small-scale fisheries as their profession/caste and who are mostly depended on it. Encourage such group and obtain the importance besides addressed you points.

By using those community who prominent generation wise more easy adoptable and making development easy, besides others to encourage in this line and train properly.

Regarding measurement, involve more local government, geographically to encourage by obtaining local stats by calling each village of the state.

This will facilitate more accurate and direct approach for any officer including FAO`s who can then can face with them for interaction any time

2. Indicators

Indicator is production and processing. This will give more accurate by this lively hoods of their progress and crises. So direct approach by initiating an officer for this along with regional /local governments.

Processing--if processed price will be higher for lively hoods, however pollution control and odor smell to be prevented particularly in the developing countries. Carefully addressed by comparing with pollution and other any pest, mosquitoes, etc. impact.

In India Fisheries developed well particularly shrimp etc. But to lack of pollutions and adopting fresh water techniques there are many set backs to the farmers.

Participatory Monitor:

Is an important factor. This to be linked with available local fisheries department at national level, again clubbing to the state level /regional/local level.

To monitor there must be a special officer developed along with collection of data from the arable areas, and status from time to time.

If possible one officer /consultant to be initiated from FAO , who will coordinate and monitor from time to time
