| dc.description | This paper briefly describes the various studies and fishing trials concerning the demersal fishery resources of Sri Lanka conducted between 1979 and 1985 by the Bay of Bengal Programme (BOBP). Some of these activities have been documented through the following papers : BOBP/WP/6 - “Fishing Trials with Bottom-set Longlines in Sri Lanka” by G. Pajot, K. T. Weerasooriya. BOBP/WP/16 - “Further Trials with Bottom Longlines in Sri Lanka”. BOBP/WP/40 - “Promotion of Bottom Set Longlines in Sri L anka” by K. T. Weerasooriya, S. S. C. Pieris, M. Fonseka. BOBP/WP/41 - “The Demersal Fisheries of Sri Lanka” by K. Sivasubramaniam and R. Maldeniya BOBP/WP/42 - “Fish trap trials in Sri Lanka”. This paper distils the findings of these papers-and of one other paper under preparation -for quick assimilation by planners, decision-makers and researchers. The demersal fishery activities reported in these papers were carried out by the BOBP’s small-scale fisheries project (funded by SIDA). A s enior fishing technologist and a senior fishery biologist were mainly responsible for the execution of BOBP activities. Officers from the Ministry of Fisheries and scientists from NARA (National Aquatic Resources Agency) were closely associated with the trials. | |
