Answer:
The current study was conducted in four major tuna landing islands of Lakshadweep i.e., Agatti, Minicoy, Androth and Kavaratti. The constraint analysis is conducted through Rank Based Quotient method. The constraints were divided into three core constraints such as production, marketing and government policy constraints with different set of parameters. The findings of the study revealed that the most important constraint in production is escalating of fuel cost (RBQ: 98.32) and the high input cost (RBQ: 93.52). Lack of cold storage facilities (RBQ: 94.61) and poor facilities (RBQ: 88.28) in marketing and lack of cooperation/support from fisheries officers (RBQ: 97.64) and lack of infrastructure for landing (RBQ: 94.07) from government side were other major constraints in Lakshadweep. Collectively, though tuna fisheries in Lakshadweep is fast catching up and developing, still concerted efforts are needed to mitigate the constraints that are unique to island fisheries.
