ICAR Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute
The Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) was established by the Government of India on 3 February 1947 under the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, and in 1967 it joined the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), becoming a leading tropical marine fisheries research institute. Its headquarters is located in Kochi, Kerala. The institute developed scientific methodologies for estimating marine fish landings, taxonomy, and biological aspects of exploited fish stocks, supporting the growth of India's marine fisheries sector from artisanal fishing to a complex, multi-gear, multi-species industry. CMFRI developed a stratified multistage random sampling method for estimating marine fish landings and maintains the National Marine Fisheries Data Centre with over 9 million catch and effort records. It operates four regional centres (Mandapam, Visakhapatnam, Mangalore, Vizhinjam), seven regional stations, fifteen field centres, and two Krishi Vigyan Kendras (Ernakulam and Kavaratti). CMFRI's mandate includes monitoring marine fisheries resources, mariculture research, biodiversity conservation, and policy support, including contributions to the National Policy on Marine Fisheries 2017 and India's first Marine Stewardship Council certified fishery for short-neck clams in Ashtamudi Lake, Kerala.
