Dredge fishing is a method used in India to harvest aquatic resources from the seabed. In India, this technique is commonly applied for collecting shellfish, such as clams and oysters, along the coastal regions. The process involves dragging a heavy frame with a attached bag or mesh along the ocean floor, which scoops up the targeted species. This method is prevalent in states like Kerala and Tamil Nadu, where local communities rely on it for livelihood and food security. However, it can have environmental impacts, such as habitat destruction, leading to regulations to ensure sustainable practices. |
