Over 7.50 lakh fingerlings stocked in Thamirabarani to increase inland fish production
Under the Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana, the River Ranching of Fish Seeds
scheme is being implemented to increase the inland fish production in the rivers of Tamil Nadu, to
improve the livelihood of inland fisherman who are dependent on riverine fishery, and to boost
production of native inland fish varieties and Indian major carp varieties (PMMSY). The
Tamirabarani, Gadana Nathi, Manimuthar, and Chittar rivers were used to collect fish breeders for
this initiative, and the Manimuthar Government Fish Seed Farm produced early fry fish seeds. At
various points along the 124 kilometre Tamirabarani river, more than 7.50 lakh fingerlings were
supplied. Nearly 1.60 lakh fingerlings of the Rohu, Mrigal, and Labeo fimbriatus (Fringe-lipped
carp) were stocked in the Tamirabarani river near Kodaganallur village in the Pappakudi block of
Tirunelveli district as part of this scheme. Deputy Collector (Training). The fingerlings were
released into the river by S. Gokul, Assistant Director of Fisheries and Fishermen Welfare G.A.

AP Aqua University to become a reality after years of delay

The Andhra Pradesh Aqua University is finally about to be established after years of delay.
Andhra Pradesh, the top exporter of marine products, joins Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and
West Bengal among the states with such universities. The Central Institute of Fisheries Education
is located in Maharashtra. The first phase of the construction of the AP Aqua University is expected
to cost Rs 332 crore and would be constructed on a 40-acre land close to Narasapuram in the West
Godavari district.

Aquaconnect Becomes the First Indian Fisheries Startup to Earn an ISO 27001 For
Information Security Management
Aquaconnect, a fintech-enabled full-stack platform for aquaculture inputs and outputs
supported by a physical distribution network and driven by technology, has been awarded the ISO
27001 certification for information security management. Aquaconnect is the first Indian fisheries
startup to receive this certification, which followed the development of an ISMS (Information
Security Management System). With the implementation of an Information Security Management
System (ISMS), Aquaconnect has met the standards for platform development, platform
operations, platform security, and delivery of a range of services to aquaculture stakeholders around
the world. The most important international standard for information security is ISO/IEC 27001.

Indian Immunologicals getting ready to launch fish vaccine

The technologies of two fish vaccines developed against two major bacterial diseases,
Columnaris caused by Flavobacterium columnare and Edwardsillosis caused by Edwardsiella
tarda, have been transferred to Indian Immunological Private Limited (IIL), Hyderabad, who will
develop commercial-scale vaccines for use in fresh water fish. Various are inactivated vaccinations
that will protect fish against these bacterial illnesses. The technologies were transmitted in a non-

Crossbreeding between trout poses a threat to Montana's state fish

Hybridization among native cutthroat trout and invasive rainbow trout in the Flathead
Valley could prove a main reason for biodiversity loss and damage to native species. Individuals
transported rainbow trout into this part decades ago and the species was kept by the state for fishing
chances. Although an very multipurpose fish when it arises to temperature, reproductive habitat
and more, they are not as appropriate as the cutthroat trout are afterward hundreds and hundreds of
years of progressing to the landscape’s Characteristically, cutthroat trout spawn in the similar
stream that their parents laid in, gist they have little levels of dispersion — they stay in the similar
overall area. Rainbow trout and hybrids, though, will brood in watercourses they were not
congenital in, additional dispersal their genes throughout the basin.

IIT madras created device that generated electricity from seawaves

Researchers at IIT Madras have developed a device that can generate electricity using energy
from seawaves. During trials, the system, called Sindhuja-I, was placed at a depth of 20 metres
around 6 kilometres off the coast of Tuticorin, Tamil Nadu. Sindhuja-I aims to produce one
megawatt of electricity in the next three years, the researchers said.

AquaBounty's genetically modified salmon is once again in the news due to the FDA.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is undergoing an additional environmental
assessment (EA) of AquaBounty's AquAdvantage salmon as a result of a lawsuit filed by several
organisations that led to a court order requiring further investigation. A judge ruled in 2020 that the
FDA needed to do an extra examination of the salmon, the likelihood that it would be released into
the wild, and its potential damage to wild salmon populations. The FDA had previously approved
the genetically altered salmon to be sold in the US in 2015. In that decision, a judge found that the
FDA had not exercised reasonable care in evaluating potential environmental effects before
approving the sale of Aqua Advantage salmon.
