In this book the special emphasis has given on some of the important resources like Riverine resources, Wetland resources, flood plain etc. The detection of resources through satellite observations and their protection and conservation Acts are described in details for food security and solve the problem of hunger and malnourishment and upliftment of socio-economic status of fisher folk community. It also deals with some of the techniques to improve the culture and breeding performance of the fish and stressful condition due to ammonia. To increase the production of fishes the immunostimulants and molecular diagnostic techniques and disease management are also emphasized in details.
