ICAR-CIFT Partners with Andaman and Nicobar for Fish Product GI Tagging and Boat Design
ICAR-CIFT has signed two agreements with the Andaman and Nicobar Administration to support the fisheries sector. The first involves aiding geographical indication (GI) tagging for two traditional fish products—Chilled Andaman Coral Trout and Nicobari Thoharango—along with nutritional profiling, safety protocols, and training for local producers. The second agreement provides 30 standardized fishing boat designs using various materials to facilitate construction under the Union Territory Plan. These initiatives aim to enhance product quality, preserve traditional practices, improve livelihoods, and promote sustainable fisheries development in the islands.
