All of the above
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: d) All of the above
The Punjab government has regulations on fishing gear, minimum catch size, and closed seasons to promote sustainable fishing practices.
- Fishing gear regulations are designed to protect fish stocks by limiting the type and amount of fishing gear that can be used. For example, some regulations may prohibit the use of certain types of nets, such as gillnets, which can entangle and kill large numbers of fish.
- Minimum catch size regulations are designed to protect young fish by prohibiting the harvesting of fish that are below a certain size. This allows fish to grow to maturity and reproduce, which helps to maintain healthy fish populations.
- Closed seasons are periods of time when fishing is prohibited. This gives fish a chance to spawn and reproduce without being disturbed by fishing activity.
These regulations are important for protecting fish stocks and ensuring that fishing remains a sustainable activity.
