Abstract

With time, the use of Information and communication technology (ICT) tools has gained immense awareness in many sectors. ICT plays an imperative role in enhancing socio-economic development and sustainability in the fishery sector. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the two significant benefits of ICT in the fishing industry: (i) socio-economic development and (ii) sustainability. The paper intends to highlight the benefits of using ICT in fisheries for sustainability in the long-run and enhanced socio-economic conditions of fishers. The present research work has used the bibliometric visualization tool VOSviewer to identify yearly publications, most cited papers and journals, outstanding authors, and important countries and institutions. We have used the Scopus database to extract the data for bibliometric visualization utilizing an array of relevant keywords. Following are the research questions: (i) What are the prominent documents, authors, countries, sources, organizations, and keywords in the area of ICT for sustainability and socio-economic development in the fisheries?, (ii) What are the linkages based on co-authorship, co-occurrence and citation in the area of ICT for sustainability and socio-economic development in the fisheries? (iii) What is the existing classification of the literature on ICT for sustainability and socio-economic development in the fisheries, and what is the future research agenda based on it? The paper presents a comprehensive review of ICT usage for sustainability and socio-economic development in fisheries. It analyzes the existing research in terms of most cited publications, authors, journals, countries, and institutions. Four research streams are identified, and based on them, twelve future research propositions and a future research framework are proposed. The study can be used as a foundation work by the government, policy developers, and researchers to investigate the benefits of ICT in fisheries. The application of ICTs in fisheries will enhance their profitability and minimize resources wastage, strengthening fishermen’s income, and standard of living. The paper comprehensively presents the use of ICT in fisheries for sustainability and socio-economic development. Along with it, the paper proposes future research agenda for upcoming researchers.
