Department of Fisheries prepares for El Niño's impact on Telangana aquaculture
What happened
The Department of Fisheries launched a district-wide awareness campaign to educate stakeholders on minimizing losses due to El Niño's potential effects on inland fisheries and aquaculture in Telangana. The campaign focused on scientific measures and precautionary practices for fish farmers during prolonged dry spells. Officials noted that El Niño could lead to below-normal rainfall, reduced reservoir inflows, and lower dissolved oxygen concentrations.

Why it matters
The anticipated climatic changes linked to El Niño, such as falling water levels and increased evaporation, could adversely affect fish growth and survival. This puts pressure on the sustainability of aquaculture and inland fisheries production in the region.
