Fisheries

As per available reports about 150 journals, 180 Conferences, 40 workshops are presently dedicated exclusively to fisheries and about 366282 articles are being published on the current trends in fisheries. In terms of research annually, USA, India, Japan, Brazil, Spain, Switzerland and Canada are some of the leading countries where maximum studies related to fisheries are being carried out. As reported in “Small-scale Fisheries and Biodiversity: Alleviating Poverty and Conserving Natural Resources” article, fisheries represent a primary industry and the starting point of supply chains of local, regional and global relevance.

Fisheries are typically defined in terms of the people involved, species or type of fish, area of water or seabed, method of fishing, class of boats, and purpose of the activities or a combination of the foregoing features. A theme of relevant importance in marine management is the relationship between conservation of biodiversity and food necessity  for livelihoods within small-scales fisheries. Fishermen are frequently facing a dilemma of being forbidden to fish in periods, areas or for some species, for the support of conservation and the destabilizing of the core of their livelihoods. The need to conserve biodiversity without pushing local populations to lower levels poverty is urgent.

Journal of Fisheries & Livestock Production is an academic journal – hosted by OMICS International – a pioneer in open access publishing–and is listed among the top 10 journals in fisheries. Each year research scientists have noticed a rise in the number of congresses being held in this field.

Journal of Fisheries & Livestock Production focuses on maintaining their role in the balance of species and habitats in the ecosystem. It dedicated to the discovery and dissemination of knowledge in conservation of biodiversity, natural resource management, and the sustainable use of natural resources. The journal includes a wide range of fields in its discipline to create a platform for the authors to make their contribution towards the journal and the editorial office promises a peer review process for the submitted manuscripts for the quality of publishing.

Journal of Fisheries & Livestock Production provides a unique platform to researchers and scientist to explore the advanced and latest research developments in the field of fisheries and Livestock Production, thus bridging the gap between researchers and young scientists.
