4.7.4 Barriers related to inputs

Besides high cost of inputs, non-availability of inputs acts as a barrier in diffusion. Non—availability / paucity of quality fish feeds (as in carp culture), non-availability of seeds (as in the case of magur), non-availability of quality seeds (as in the case of carps and freshwater prawns) and non-availability of stunted seeds as in the case of carp culture are some of the standing examples in this category.
