Abstract

Information plays an important role in all societies since the dawn of civilization. The world is undergoing an Information Communication Technology (ICT) revolution, a revolution that has enormous socio-economic implications for the developed and developing countries. ICTs play a vital role for the development of the status of aquaculture in our country. The latest innovations of ICTs in fisheries sectors have brought about a tremendous change in the life styles of the fish farmers. Different initiatives in ICTs have been taken up which would also help in expanding and developing the fisheries technologies to the farmers. New information and communication technologies are generating possibilities to solve problems of rural people and also to promote the agricultural production by providing scientific information to the farmers. Although several initiatives have been made for use of ICT in aquaculture sector in India, its application is in a limited scale.
