development plans and undertake corrective action for the posterity. The present study deals with the sociopersonal,
socio-psychological and socio-economic characteristics of Sidis a primitive tribal group who are
the beneficiaries of the ambitious cage culture programme of CMFRI under the Tribal Sub-Plan. A sample
of 135 Sidi tribals consisting of 45 numbers of Sidis practicing cage culture, 45 numbers of non-practicing
beneficiaries of the tribal society and 45 numbers of Sidis who were non practicing and non-beneficiaries
of society were selected using multistage random sampling method. The findings of the study revealed that
majority of the participant beneficiaries (58.33 percent) were having high school level of education, when

inferred that, the participant beneficiaries had a higher average monthly income ie ` 1516.25 when compared
to non-participant beneficiaries who earned an average monthly income of ` 854.25. Majority of the
participant beneficiaries (41.67 per cent) had medium level of knowledge in cage culture followed by
