The study used both primary and secondary data. The primary data was collected from the respondents through schedule method. The secondary data was collected from prestigious journals and reports. Convenient sampling method is used to select the respondents. In this study sample size of 55 respondents were selected. In analyzing data, both descriptive and inferential statistics were used. For describing the overall situation of socio economic conditions of fishermen, descriptive statistics like simple percentage was used and statistical tool paired samples test was used.

It is concluded that harbour has impacted on the relationship with problems in sales. Keywords: Fishing Harbour, Fishermen, Employment and Income 96

2 I. INTRODUCTION A fishing harbour is a place where many things come together fish, people and fishing technology. It is a gathering point for buyers, sellers and service providers. It is a place of encounter between public and private institutions. Moreover, it is a point of convergence between production and trade. There is probably no other structure or facility in fisheries that matches the diversity of stakeholders and activities in a fishing harbour. A fishing harbour offers enormous opportunity for the promotion of responsible fisheries, specifically the reduction of wastes and preservation of fish quality. The conditions prevailing in a fishing harbour may have consequences not only on human and environmental health, but also on fish price and exports. While having the right infrastructure at the right place is very important for the proper functioning of a fishing harbour, how it is managed and maintained are crucial considerations as well. Stakeholders are a vital link to the sustainability of a fishing harbour. II. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Fish marketing is confronted with certain peculiar problems: greater uncertainty in fish production, highly perishable nature of fish, assembling of fish from numerous landing centres, too many species and as many demand pattern, violent and frequent fluctuations in prices, difficulties in adjusting supply to variations in demand and need for transportations of fish in specialized means of transport. Seafood export is now recognized as a major avenue for export earnings. In order to meet international standards, it is imperative to have world class fishing harbours. Kanyakumari stands to gain with a number of fishing harbours. III. OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY 1) To assess the impact of fishing harbour on the living conditions of fishermen in terms of employment and income. 2) To ascertain the extent to which the facilities created at the fishing harbours/fish landing centres are availed of by the fishermen. 3) To identify the problem faced by the fishermen before and after harbour. 4) To offer suitable suggestions based on the findings of the study. IV. METHODOLOGY The study used both primary and secondary data. The primary data was collected from the respondents through schedule method. The secondary data was collected from prestigious journals and reports. Convenient sampling method is used to select the respondents. In this study sample size of 55 respondents were selected. In analyzing data, both descriptive and inferential statistics were used. For describing the overall situation of socio economic conditions of fishermen, descriptive statistics like simple percentage was used and statistical tool paired samples test was used. V. LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY Although the study has been conducted in a systematic manner there are few limitations: 1) The study is restricted to sample size of 55 respondents. 2) The study area covered Muttomharbour, Kanyakumari district only. 97

Deviation t df p Value Overexploitation by middleman Fluctuation in price Inadequate demand Low price offered by the buyer Delay in payment Quality issues Inadequate market knowledge Competition from other sellers Perishability Table 11 shows that since the p value for overexploitation by middleman, fluctuation in price, inadequate demand, low price offered by the buyer, delay in payment, quality issues, inadequate market knowledge, competition from other sellers and perishability is less than 0.05, the null hypothesis is rejected. It shows that there are significant differences in relationship with problems in sales before harbour and after harbour. Hence it is concluded that harbour has impacted on the relationship with problems in sales.

9 VII. FINDINGS The present study highlights some of the major findings as follows. 1) It is found that 30.9 per cent of the respondents fall under the age group of years. 2) From the survey it is concluded that 87.3 per cent of the respondents are married. 3) Most of the fishermen are illiterate (36.4%) and only 3.5 per cent of the respondents are post graduates. 4) Before started harbour in Muttom, 76.4 per cent of the fishermen were involved in fishing as their main occupation. After started harbour in Muttom, 87.3 per cent of the fishermen were involved in fishing as their main occupation. 5) The study reveals that 45.5 per cent of the respondents have been involved in fishing for above 10 years. 6) The study shows that before harbour, majority of 25.5 per cent of the respondents had adopted non-motorized method of fishing and after harbour, majority of 50.9 per cent of the respondents has adopted motorized method of fishing. 7) It is observed that before harbour, 92.7 per cent of the respondents faced the problem of competition from other sellers and after harbour, only few respondents face the problem of delay in payment, perishability, quality issues and competition from other sellers. 8) There are significant differences in relationship with problems in sales before harbour and after harbour. 9) There are significant differences in relationship with availability of infrastructure before harbour and after harbour. VIII. SUGGESTIONS The following are the important suggestions of the researcher. 1) More technical devices should be introduced in the fisheriesindustry. It will enable the fishermen to catch more fish. 2) More markets and processing units should beopen for the marketing of the fish. It will boost up their economy. 3) Basic steps should be taken by the authorities to save the fisher folk from their burning problems they face at the sea and the seashore. It will encourage them and change their life style. 4) The housing conditions, electricity for lighting, source of drinking water facilities and poor sanitary conditions of fishermen must be studied in detail by the Governmental Agencies and necessary remedial measures should be adopted. There should be a simple and timely procedure of subsidized loan facility for the fishermen and Government must increase ceiling of loan and subsidy. 5) The Fisheries planning is often hampered by the peculiar character of fishermen s rural life. The fishing villages are isolated from the main stream of the society. Lack of suitable roads, proper transport and communication facilities also delays the implementation of different schemes. So providing these facilities to these poor fishermen must be considered seriously by the development schemes introduced by the Government. 6) Lack of coordination among various agencies connected with the implementation of different fisheries programmes to raise the level of fish production is another reason, which hinders the development in the fishing community. Necessary steps must be taken by the Fisheries 104

10 Department for the effective coordination and implementation of different fisheries programmes. 7) The fishermen must be brought out from their huts and should be made a part of the general population. Awareness programmes on saving, education, income generating activity and asset creation must be given to these people for improving their standard of living. 8) The fishermen have no sensible ideas about intelligent spending and saving of their income. Educating these fishermen to save an amount from their income and additional income is highly essential to help them to lead a secure life. IX. CONCLUSION The employment and monthly income of fishermen is very poor before harbour, but after harbor the employment and monthly income of fishermen has increased. It shows that immense scope for employment and income from fisheries activities because of harbour in Muttom. The present study indicates that there is ample scope to increase the income of fishermen and intern the income of fisher folk provided they adopt improved fishing. The social and educational status of the fisher folk could also be improved by educating them in various aspects. REFERENCES 1.
