By protecting mother hilsa, the production of hilsa in Bangladesh has been steadily increasing each year. Today, hilsa has become a national asset, contributing 1% to our GDP. In the fiscal year 2023-24, 571,000 tons of hilsa were caught, generating around three billion takas in foreign currency through exports. The significant increase in hilsa production in Bangladesh is largely attributed to the ban on fishing mother hilsa during a specific period each year.
