Abstract
Seas, marine ecosystems, and coastal regions are crucial components of our environment. Numerous scientific strategies have been adopted to boost fisheries and aquaculture productivity. This study proposes a fuzzy-logic-based model to produce fisheries in India, which ranks fourth worldwide for fisheries production. Five input variables, such as fish seed, export, post-harvesting, released fund, and temperature, are considered inputs, and the production of fisheries is taken as the output variable. A Mamdani-type fuzzy inference system with trapezoidal membership functions is prepared with 243 rules in the IF-THEN format. This mathematical model investigates the impacts of input parameters on the production of Indian fisheries. We fit the model with the real-world data and show that fish seed, export, released fund, and post-harvesting facilities positively impact fisheries production. However, a very high temperature is unsuitable for high production, even if all other parameters lie at their desired level.
