Section 1: Vision, Mission, Objectives and Functions Vision Coldwater fisheries and aquaculture to be an important economic activity in upland region for livelihood security and ecotourism Mission To become a Centre of Excellence for assessing and managing coldwater fishery resources, development technologies and models of hill aquaculture and formulating strategies for holistic growth of the sector Objectives 1. Development of protocols for sustainable management of natural aquatic resources 2. Development of technologies for productivity and production enhancement from coldwater aquaculture 3. Transfer of technologies, training and farmer adoption Functions To counteract the effect of unregulated developmental activities in fragile ecosystem of Himalayan region, judicious and scientific management of aquatic ecosystem by bridging the gap between actual fish yield and production potential can lead to the sustainable coldwater fishery resources which in turn would accelerate the economy of the region. To achieve the goal it is necessary to harness fish for food, sports and livelihood security of hill communities through assessment, generation, refinement and adoption of appropriate technologies and manpower development in the sector.
