The Smart Green Aquaculture Farm and advanced Recirculatory Aquaculture System (RAS) facility were inaugurated in Telangana, highlighting a major innovation in India’s fisheries sector. Located at Kandukur, the project showcases the successful commercial farming of rainbow trout—traditionally a cold-water species—in a tropical environment throughout the year. This achievement reflects the effectiveness of RAS technology, which optimizes water use and environmental control. The initiative also emphasises skill development, research, and innovation in aquaculture, aligning with increased central government investments aimed at strengthening sustainable fisheries and boosting rural livelihoods.
