| dc.description.abstract |
The socioeconomics of six fishing communities in four
man-made reservoirs of Sri Lanka was studied to investigate the
potential contribution of fishermen to effective management. Adopting
illegal fishing methods and changing fishing grounds are two of the
socioeeonamic indicators of low incane derived fran the fishery. The
fishermen in all six fishing communities were willing to comply with
any fishery regulation provided the fishermen unanimously agreed to
the regulation. This suggests that effective management strategies,
which will contribute to increasing the fishermen's income, can be
implemented through properly organized extension societies in the
reservoirs of Sri Lanka. |
