Mondarmoni, a coastal region situated near the Sundarbans, West Bengal, India, supports a significant fisheries industry that plays a crucial role in the livelihoods of the local population. The fisheries in Mondarmoni primarily focus on marine and brackish water species, taking advantage of the abundant fish, crabs, shrimp, and mollusks found in the nearby estuaries and waterways. Fishing is the predominant occupation for many inhabitants, and they employ various traditional and modern fishing techniques to harvest the bountiful marine resources. However, the fisheries in Mondarmoni face challenges such as overfishing, environmental degradation, and vulnerability to natural disasters, especially cyclones and tidal surges. Efforts to ensure sustainable fishing practices and improve infrastructure for processing and marketing of seafood are vital to secure the long-term prosperity of the fisheries and the well-being of the communities dependent on this critical industry.
