Telangana Government is gearing up to release a staggering 85.6 core fishlings and an additional 10 crore shrimp seedings this year added TG Srikanth.
India’s livestock, dairy, and fisheries sectors are very promising and contribute significantly to the country’s economic growth. India’s livestock industry accounts for approximately 4.11 percent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and its ecosystem is vibrant and diverse, providing employment to more than 22 million people. The fishing industry also plays a key role, accounting for approximately 1.07 percent of the gross national product and employing approximately 14 million people, added Mr. Venu Dantuluri, CEO, of Aqua Farming Technology Solutions
The organizers have drawn inspiration from the EuroTier expo in Germany that set international standards for innovations in animal production; the World Dairy Expo in the United States which emerged as a premier event, featuring top-notch dairy cattle, the latest in dairy farming equipment, and a platform for knowledge sharing. On the fisheries front, the Seafood Expo Global in Belgium has been a global gathering for seafood professionals, facilitating trade, and unveiling new seafood products and processing solutions.
