Bottom trawling fishing is a method used in India to catch fish from the sea floor. This technique involves dragging large nets along the ocean bottom, which can impact marine ecosystems. In India, bottom trawling is commonly practiced in coastal regions like Kerala and Tamil Nadu, where it supports the local fishing industry. However, it often leads to bycatch and habitat destruction, raising environmental concerns. Indian authorities are working on regulations to make this practice more sustainable, balancing economic needs with conservation efforts. |
