Wetland ecosystems provide a range of ecological and economic benefits to people and society through provisioning of various goods and services. Many studies have highlighted the role of wetlands in provisioning of ecosystem goods, viz. fishery, agriculture, non-timber forest products, etc. Culture- and capture-fishery are important economic activities of people living in the Southeast Asian countries, viz. India and Bangladesh, which have large areas under floodplain wetlands. Globally, around one billion people rely on fish as the only source of protein, of which 35 million people are engaged in fishing and aquaculture, and 95% of them reside in developing countries like India and Bangladesh. In this region, a large number of people practice commercial culture fishery by constructing earthen ponds in and around the floodplains (http://agritech.tnau.ac.in).Full Text
