Almost half of the catches from mechanised boats 31*6 landed in some of the major landing centers, such as Veraval Sassoon dock, Cochin Fisheries harbour, Sakthii-kulangara, Rameswaram, Pudumanaikuppam and Visakhapatnam. It is felt that timely monitoring of the landings at the major centres, where there are heavy concentration of mechanised boats would be useful to Central and State government depart-ments, industry and other agencies concerned with marine fisheries. Keeping this objective in view, the 'Fishirend', a monthly bulletin depicting trends of marine fish landings by small mechanised boats (less than 17.3m), at important landing centres, is being issued by the National Marine Living Resources Data Centre of the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute. A KEY To start with, ten most important centfes are given as representative of his sector. However, it is proposed to widen the scope of Fishtrend by including additional centres and a larger coverage of the mechanised sector, including the larger trawling vessels, in due course. We hope that the 'Fishtrend' wil l be a useful information base for Government departments, the fishing industry and other concerned agencies. The monthly values connected by unbroken lines are for the current year and broken lines for the previous year; these two being given together for the sake of comparison. However, In the figures for the month of January each year, since there are only single values for the current year, the symbols alone are given and, wherever the values for the corresponding months coincide, the symbols for the current year are superimposed on those of the previous year.

INTRODUCTION During the last two decades the marine fish landings in India by the mechanised sector have been steadily increasing. Presently, they form about 60% of the total landings. Almost half of the catches from mechanised boats are landed in some of the major landing centres, such as Veraval, Sassoon dock. Cochin Fisheries harbour, Sakthi-kulangara, Rameswaram, Pudumanaikuppam and Visakhapatnam. It is felt that timely monitoring of the landings at the major centres, where there are heavy concentration of mechanised boats, would be useful to Central and State government depart-ments, industry and other agencies concerned with marine fisheries. Keeping this objective in view, the 'Fishtrend', a monthly bulletin depicting trends of marine fish landings by small mechanised boats (less than 17.3 m), at important landing centres, is being issued by the National Marine Living Resources Data Centre of the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute. To start with, ten most important centres are given as representative of this sector. However, it is proposed to widen the scope of Fishtrend by including additional centres and a larger coverage of the mechanised sector, including the larger trawling vessels, in due course.
