The economic returns can make itworth the increased investment. Re-circulatory systems should be establishedin saline areas by using low saline ground water for culture of shrimp, sea bass,grey mullet, etc. Developing a cost-effective indigenous version of RAS asagainst importing the complete systems should be a priority in R&D. As RAS iscapital intensive subsidies should be provided to encourage its adoption.• Ornamental fish having good demand in the urban markets and can be aviable livelihood option for rural women and youth. It can be encouraged inclusters around the urban markets. Identification of local species,establishment of backyard breeding and rearing units with subsidy; training ofwomen and small scale entrepreneurs for establishment of aquaria shops; andEstablishing State of the Art Aquaria at Gurgaon, Hisar, Panchkula andSonepat for both Freshwater and Marine fishes with focus on publicawareness and education need consideration.• Structured and customized training programs should be arranged for farmersto develop a trained cadre of fish producers.
