Abstract

     China’s hegemony in global fish production remains unquestioned. This paper tries to analyze the trend in the production of fish production in India and China giving emphasis to aquaculture fish production. In aqua production in the 2000s, India appears to have made a turnaround compared to the position of China. In the 2010s, India registered a growth rate of 78 percent almost the same as in the 2000s while China’s decadal growth rate went down to a little over 50 percent. The variation difference in the growth trend of total fisheries production in India has been much more pronounced compared to that of China. The difference in variation of the growth has also been discernible in the Aquaculture production as well. While China’s long-term growth has been steadier and steeper during the period under the study, India has shown relatively much-pronounced volatility, particularly in the second half of the 1990s and the first half of the 2000s. But in the later part of the 2010s, the volatility in the growth trend in respect of aqua production in India seems to have disappeared.
