tnx 4d response.
in evry business venture, the sole aim is profit. So i want to ask which is most profitable of dem all?? Or would u advise i train on it first before venturing into it fully?
If yes, can u recommend one 4me?

Tnx.
Sir, a lot of factors can influence what aspect of fish farming you end up in. Your interest, capital, facilities available, type of training within ur reach, how much time u have to start d business etc. So without having this set of info, it's difficult to advise you on which areas to invest in. Growout and hatching are two major aspects that I suggest you look into. With low capital and a condition that you can build a network among farmers for sales, fing/juv production is a feasible step. Otherwise, I'll advise that you settle for growout, starting out with the size of production your purse can sustain. Let me also add that in fish farming even though profit is important, you need a carefully planned 2-3 production cycles, to really enjoy a decent ROI especially in a situation where you were responsible for the fixed assets used to set up the venture at the startup.

This is so so sad that we are back to page 74 embarassed
All the numerous and vital info all gone shocked
I guess we have to move on and make this great thread even more better.

For the record i finally met with my Robonski at Atl, he is such a young shy person grin
We chatted much about fish farming and to my amazement he told me so much in details.
What i liked about him was his simplicity it still baffles me.
He is also involved in some outstanding farm projects of which i don't want to go into details

robonski15: My fellow farmers and aspiring farmers fish business is no joke.. Its not what u toil with, its serious business.. Before u venture into it go and learn it practically.. Go to a good farm to see for youself.. Majority of people that claim to the business are thieves.. They have sugar coated mouth to lure people into it and take their money...

I had to sqeeze out time to write this little piece for aspiring and practising farmers..

I am not here to sell any manual,book or fingerlings and juvenile please.. Am here to answer any sort of question you need to know about catfish farming.. Feel free to ask me because I want the best for everybody,let's share ideas and make money together rather than exploiting people... So am all ears to your questions.. GOD BLESS YOU ALL..

I must commend your efforts sir, 1kg -1.7kg in four months is wonderful.. Now about the present stock not growing well it 'may' be that the farm u bought them from kept the best for themselves and sold out the rest hence the poor growth. What is the size of this present stock?
