Question 8

Kerala's marine fisheries sector is vital for the state's economy and food security but faces significant challenges regarding resource depletion and ecological balance. Considering both the livelihoods of fisherfolk and the long-term health of marine ecosystems, which of the following strategies is most crucial for ensuring the sustainability of marine fisheries in Kerala?

Accepted Answer

B. Implementing strict seasonal fishing bans during breeding periods and regulating fishing gear, such as net mesh sizes. — Implementing strict seasonal fishing bans during breeding periods allows fish populations to reproduce and replenish, directly addressing resource depletion. Regulating fishing gear, particularly net mesh sizes, prevents the capture of juvenile fish, ensuring they mature and contribute to future stocks. Option A promotes overexploitation, while Option C, though potentially reducing pressure on wild stocks, introduces ecological risks from exotic species. Option D would exacerbate overfishing by increasing fishing capacity without necessary controls.

Answer

A. Promoting unregulated year-round deep-sea trawling to maximize catch volume and export potential.

Answer

C. Encouraging the widespread adoption of large-scale aquaculture of exotic species in marine waters to reduce pressure on wild stocks.
