Meghalaya Fisheries Scenario

Meghalaya has two drainage systems namely Brahmaputra in the north and Barak in the South. It is blessed with a very rich and diverse Inland aquatic ecosystem having a wide variety of aquatic resources such as Rivers, Streams, lakes, bheels etc, and with an average rainfall of 1200 mm which offers tremendous scope for developing the fisheries sector. The available land in most parts of Meghalaya is uneven in terrain that makes it somewhat difficult to develop fisheries on commercial lines.

However, rain water can be impounded in small ponds for the production of fish and inland fisheries therefore does offer a potential that can be successfully exploited by the people of the state. It is a powerful income and employment generator as it stimulates growth of a number of subsidiary industries and is a source of cheap and nutritious food.
