HDPE FISHING NET (FROM GRANULES TO FISH NET)

Fishing net is a fabric made joining twine at an interval of about half an inch or so to form a set of mashes for catching the fish. These have been from plied cotton yarn so far in our country & many other countries, but slowly it is being replaced by the fish nets manufactured by using chemically treated extra stronge nylon yarns. For marine fishing only nylon fish net is preferred.

Fish nets are manufactured by HDPE Yarn twisted nylon or cotton yarns. These are woven on special looms. Fish nets are made of two types e.g. knotted type or knotless type.

Normally transparent nylon is used for the manufacture but the coloured nylon yarns may be employed for the purpose which makes it a bit economical.

Generally fish nets are marketed in the size of nets 12 feets X 12 feets with inches of (0.5″), (0.75″) where as the first one is most popular & widely acceptable quality.

Fisheries sector occupies a very important place in the socio-economic development of the country. It has been recognized as a powerful income and employment generator as it stimulates growth of a number of subsidiary industries and is a source of cheap and nutritious food besides being a foreign exchange earner. Most importantly, it is the source of livelihood for a large section of economically backward population of the country.

Marine Fisheries contributes to food security and provides direct employment to over 1.5 million fisher people besides others indirectly dependent on the sector. The total marine fisherfolk population of 3.57 mn is in 3,305 marine fishing villages spread across the coastal States and Union Territories (including islands). Of these, 0.90 million are active fisher people, and another 0.76 million fisher people are involved in other fisheries-related activities. The country’s fresh water resources consist of 195210 kilometers of rivers and canals, 2.9 million hectares of minor and major reservoirs, 2.4 million hectares of ponds and lakes and about 0.8 million hectares of flood plain lakes and derelict water bodies. At present it contributes almost 13% of the total fish production in the country. Significant contributions also come from freshwater and brackish- water aquaculture.
