Mysore/Mysuru: With the arrival of monsoon, the Department of Fisheries is aiming to produce 40 crore fingerlings in Mysuru Zone (Mysuru, Mandya, Hassan, Kodagu and Chamarajanagar).
In recent times, inland fish cultivation has become a major source of income for farmers and merchants in the district. Due to high demand last year in the local markets, the Department is planning for increased production this year and has already started to produce 20 crore fingerlings at fingerling production units of both Kabini and Nugu Dams in Mysuru.
