Himachal Pradesh aims to increase fish production to 19,000 tonnes by FY26, driven by state-backed aquaculture initiatives and sustainable fisheries management. The plan seeks to enhance rural livelihoods, boost nutritional security, and tap into growing domestic demand for fish. Investments in hatcheries, cold chain infrastructure, and farmer training are central to achieving this target. By promoting scientific fish farming practices and public-private partnerships, the state intends to scale output while conserving natural water resources.
