It was reported that 79,420 kg hatchlings were produced from 38 hatcheries and 948,394 kg fingerlings were produced from 180 nurseries at Jessore sadar in the year 2008. The fingerlings produced from this region were distributed to different parts of the country. Everyday more than 200 fry traders came to Chachra and carried the fry by means of van, pick-up van, bus, truck, train etc. Commission agents played an important role in this trade.
