Motorization Technology Delivery in Small Scale Fisheries – Its Impact and Impediments in Adoption
2012
Prabakar, C. | Sundaravaradarajan, K.R.
The impact of motorization technology on the earnings of small-scale fishermen has been quantified using decomposition analysis, and the reasons for non-adoption of motorization technology by a section of small-scale fishermen have been identified. The decomposition analysis has shown that motorization technology has an impressive impact on the monetary returns for small-scale fishermen. The reasons behind non-adoption of motorization have been identified as lack of access to institutional finance, increased operational expenditure, operational complexities and complacency. Various causative factors have been identified for each of these reasons. To overcome the problem of lack of access to institutional credit, the fishermen may be encouraged to form co-operative groups. A group lending scheme with liberal security formalities, may be extended to the interested fishermen groups through the co-operative societies.
