Year-Round Captive Breeding Technology for Golden Mahseer (Tor putitora)

ICAR-DCFR has developed a patented technology enabling captive maturation and year-round multiple breeding of the endangered Golden Mahseer. Using controlled photo-thermal regimes, customized diets, and broodstock management, the system produces robust seeds for conservation and aquaculture. This breakthrough supports species recovery, coldwater fisheries development, and livelihood opportunities in Himalayan regions.
