Abstract: Techno-economic data were collected from a representative sample of fishermen of covering both these fleets from Zuari estuary during 2014. Using this data, a group of economic indicators was determined separately for GN and AS fleets. The comparison of these indicators showed that both GN and AS fleets contributed significantly to the socio-economics of the fisherfolk in Zuari. Both the fleets were found to be economically profitable though GN showed comparatively higher profitability. After validating the results obtained from this study, it can be used as an input for constructing an ecosystem model for the estuary.
