Possiblities of Ornamental Fish Culture in Jammu and Kashmir State for Unemployed Educated Youth
Journal Title: International Journal of Zoological Investigations - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Ornamental fish culture is not well developed in Jammu and Kashmir State (India). There is enormous scope of ornamental fish culture in Jammu and Kashmir as there are more than 10-15 species of ornamental fishes. In order to make this culture popular the technology needs to extend to common fish farmer and entrepreneurs. In order to boost the culture and production in private sector, small infrastructure could be constructed which will help to grow it into an industry. The suitable zones will be found in all the nooks and corners of the State. Some higher reaches of the state where water resources are available in plenty are all feasible for establishment of ornamental fish units. It will help in up-liftment of socioeconomic condition of backward classes and will also create employment opportunities for masses in these areas particularly unemployed educated youth of the state.
