Fisheries sector has made significant contributions to the Indian economy by augmenting production of animal protein, employment and income generation besides huge foreign exchange earnings. Fisheries research and development requires qualified and trained manpower, hence all state agricultural universities, veterinary universities, and central and deemed universities are giving more focus towards Fisheries education now-a- days. However, this in turn requires clearing a number of competitive exams at graduate and post-graduate level. Hence the authors constituted this question bank with multiple choice questions which will be relevant for all the students appearing in JRF, SRF, NET, Civil services exams and other related examinations. This book “Objective Fisheries Science” will provide ready reference to multiple choice questions in almost all branches of Fishery Science,thus benefitting the students, teachers and researchers all over India.
