About Us:
Vacancy Notice 06 Project Scientist, Technical Assistant/YP I and SRF/ YP II Vacancy – CIFRI,West Bengal
- India has vast and varied types of inland fisheries resources in the form of rivers, estuaries, reservoirs, floodplain wetlands, lakes, coastal lagoons and backwaters, which play important roles in fish production in the country, ensuring food and nutritional security, employment generation and livelihoods to millions of people. Recognizing the role of inland fisheries, Government of India established a Central Inland Fisheries Research Station at Calcutta on 17 March 1947, under the then Ministry of Food and Agriculture. Later, in 1959, the Central Inland Fisheries Research Station was elevated to a full-fledged research institute, christened as “Central Inland Fisheries Research Institute”.In 1967 it came under the administration of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research, Ministry of Agriculture (currently Ministry of Agriculture and Farmer’s Welfare), New Delhi.
- The Institute strives for knowledge-based management of inland open waters for sustainable fisheries, conservation of aquatic biodiversity, integrity of ecological services and to derive social benefits from these waters. Headquarters of the Institute is located at Barrackpore, West Bengal; the Regional Research Centers are located at Allahabad, Guwahati, Bangalore and Vadodara, with Research Centers at Kochi and Kolkata. The Institute is ISO 9001: 2008 certified and provide world-class service standards.
- Over the years the institute has grown to a premier research organization in inland fisheries in the country. It carried out benchmark studies on the fish and fisheries of major rivers, estuaries, lakes and wetlands spread along the length and breadth of the country. During the pre seventh plan period, the Institute identified the potential zones in major rivers where riverine major carp seed can be collected and supplied to aquaculture farms. It also developed and standardized spawn collection nets for the purpose. Oxygen packing for long distance transportation of fish seeds was developed by the institute resulting in lower mortality of fish seeds, while transportation. The development of induced breeding technology for Indian and Chinese major carps, during the seventies coupled with the bundh breeding of Chinese carps, nursery management techniques and composite fish culture technology gave a fillip to freshwater aquaculture development in India. Development of seed production and culture technologies for air-breathing fishes, methods of aquatic weed control and integrated fish farming systems gave additional support to the growth of freshwater aquaculture. The Institute also developed eco-system oriented management guidelines for increasing fish production from large reservoirs (> 5000 ha area).
