The fishing ban period in Andhra Pradesh is a crucial regulatory measure implemented by the Indian government to protect marine resources and ensure sustainable fishing practices. This ban typically occurs during the monsoon season, from April to June, when fish breeding is at its peak. During this time, all fishing activities, including trawling and mechanized boat operations, are prohibited in the coastal regions of Andhra Pradesh. This initiative helps in the conservation of fish stocks, supports the livelihood of local fishermen in the long run, and aligns with India\“s broader environmental policies. The state government provides support to affected fishermen through subsidies and alternative employment schemes to mitigate economic hardships during the ban period. |
