UP wins the 1st prize for ‘best state in Inland Fisheries’

Lucknow: The Yogi government is running a number of golden schemes in Uttar Pradesh to provide employment to the youth and farmers of the state. In addition to providing benefits to the people, these schemes also create many direct and indirect employment opportunities.

As a way to increase profit with less capital, the Yogi Government encourages small, micro-business units in the state. In this regard, it promotes fish farming. As a result of the enormous potential for employment and income generation from fisheries, the Yogi government will provide golden opportunities to the farmers through fish farming. In addition to imparting training in fisheries, the government is attempting to expand this business on a larger scale. Now, farmers can earn more money by farming as well as fishing.

As compared with previous governments, the state government has increased the duration of fishery reservoirs from 3 years to 10 years. As a result, the state has produced 26.44 lakh MT of fish in the last four years. Fishery seeds worth 1191.27 crores were produced in four years, and Kisan Credit Cards were distributed to 7883 fish farmers. Under the Self-Reliant India Campaign, the state government also offered free fishermen accident insurance to the farmers through the Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana.
