$\huge\mathcal\pink{\mathbb{\boxed{Answer:}}}$

In India, where the per-capita intake of meat and milk is poor, fish and prawns play a vital role in supplementing and balancing people’s diets. About nine of the 39 species of the freshwater prawn genus (Macrobrachium) in India’s rivers are also considered commercially important. Two species – the Malaysian or giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) and the riverine prawn (M. malcolmsonii) – are presently cultured in India. The smaller species (M. idea) mostly supports wild fishery catches.
