Abstract

Inland fisheries refer to the practice of harvesting fish from freshwater ecosystems such as lakes, rivers, and wetlands. These fisheries play a vital role in providing food security and livelihood opportunities for millions of people. The inland fisheries sector in Telangana is an essential component of the state's socio-economic framework, contributing to livelihoods, food security, and overall economic development. Telangana, blessed with vast inland water resources, holds considerable potential for enhancing fisheries production through reservoirs, tanks, and rivers. This research provides a comprehensive review of the current status of inland fisheries in Telangana, emphasizing its contribution to the state's Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) and the well-being of fishing communities. The study explores government initiatives, fish production trends, and the challenges faced by the sector. The findings underscore the need for sustainable management and enhanced aquaculture practices to bridge the gap between supply and demand.
