Abstract

THE fishing communities in India are caste-cum-occupation groups. Caste, apart from the technique of fishing plays an important part in production organization of the fishing industry. The degree of necessary labour co-operation, varies from technique to technique, and depends upon the size of the required operational unit of the organization.
