Inland fishing has an important role to the development of the socio economic scenario of our district, Nadia. It is an effective means which greatly influences local economy by alleviating poverty through employment generation of the people, especially among women and marginal farmers. Inland fishing also boost the development of rural infrastructure and helps creating ancillary industries i.e. fishing boat manufacture, net making etc. which, in turn, opens the opportunity of more employment. Notwithstanding those pros, it has also several cons like overfishing; fishing techniques fishing management etc. which causes adversely on environmental issues such as destruction of habitat; break down of lentic eco-system, extinction of some species of fish and reduction of fish population, pollution of water body and many more. For assessing those environmental impact of inland fishing the Amda Beel of Ranaghat Sub Division of District Nadia, has been taken here into consideration. Primary data from beel and their owners have been collected using DPMS (Nadia series,. 1994), Satellite images, Soil and water testing kit and methods of statistical analysis has been adopted in order to process those data. From study it has been found undoubtedly that, though many villages encompassing the beel i.e. Bishnupur, Habibpur, Aramdanga, Narkle Danga, Changdahara, Nebutala, Beleati, Musunda have been economically benefited, the aquatic environment as well as the eco system of beel has been damaged or partly annihilated. |
