FEASIBILITY STUDY PRESENTED TO THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA | Farm Energy FEASIBILITY STUDY PRESENTED TO THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA | Farm Energy - feasibility study of laundry shop, feasibility study of duck egg production, feasibility study of a restaurant, feasibility study of car wash business,feasibility study of water refilling station,feasibility study of the project,free sample of feasibility study of bakeshop, feasibility study of computer shop. Introduction The shift in peoples dietary intake of meat especially red meat to fish due to increasing awareness of its low cholesterol level and the unsaturated fatty acid composition coupled with the ever increasing population has led to the increase demand for fish. This demand inspite of the combined efforts from both industrial trawling vessels and the artisan fisheries, the demand cannot be met with the supply from these sources; this is as a result of depleting stock in the natural water bodies due to over fishing and the devastating effects of pollution in our water bodies. FEASIBILITY STUDY PRESENTED TO THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA | Farm Energy The available alternatives to argument this short fall in supply are aquaculture and import. The Later should be discouraged because for a country that is trying to improve on its foreign reserve like ours to make such an attempt is unwise and uneconomical. We are now left with the only option which is aquaculture. Feasibility takes into consideration the practicability of a project while viability dwells on, will the benefit of the project justify the cost? The benefit of the project as shown below in this proposal justifies the cost. The location is just out sketch of Minna town Korokpon to be précised with a distance of less than Five (5) Kilometers to the ADP fish hatchery where fingerlings could be source easily. It proximity to the high way is also a good advantage as travelers who are interested will stop over to make some purchases because a conspicuous sign post that will be placed by the roadside. There is high probability of increasing demand in the future. PROJECT LOCATION The fish farm is to be located on a village land, located along Minna Suleja Road, Korokpon Village after chanchaga Minna Niger State. Factors considered IN THE PROPOSED LOCATION (Feasibility and viability) The Chanchaga water works drainage is an added advantage for the healthy Aquaculture; this will also ensure all season farming. · Topography: The slope of the land is the type that permits easy drainage of water in and out of the pond especially from the Chanchaga Water works drainage aside the well that sank to ensure higher production and expansion of fish farm in the future. · Water: The physical-chemical and biological analysis of the well water and the Chanchaga drainage located near the site support fish culture · Accessibility: The location is easily accessible close to the main express way of Minna Suleja Road just after Chanchaga make transfer of raw materials easier proximity to hotels and university domiciled within the capital city of Minna is a good advantage for easy marketing. · Marketing: There is high demand for fish, especially mudfish by the inhabitants of the area, University Community, hotels, restaurants and fish barbecue centers across the Minna metropolis and beyond.

Payback Period The project has an even cash flow of 4,352,000 each year for the 5 years period, on an investment amount of 5,000,000. Payback period = Initial fixed investment Annual cash flows = 3,716,000 2,352,000 = 1.57 Payback period is the period of time taken before the capital in a project; the working capital is fully recovered. In this study, the estimated payback period is approximately 1 ½ year. In view of the time of the project and amount involved the payback period is considered attractive and acceptable. 1. Net Present Value: Net present value is the classic economic method for evaluation and investment proposal like this. NPV= n{ At ----C t =0 (1+r)t Where r = interest C = present value of cash flow Or initial capital investment At = Cash inflow at time t t = time in year Net present Value = £ Discount factor 1 present Value –C (1+r)n Year cash flow discount factor present value 0 1 2,352,000 0.909 2,116,800 2 235,200 0.826 1,942,752 3 235200 0.751 1766352 4 235200 0.68 1599360 5 235200 0.62 1456240 8897731 NPV = 8,897,731-3,716,000 5,181,731 The Net present value is positive, so the project is acceptable. It means the rate of turn over exceed that minimum required rate of return Benefit cost Ration Cash inflow for 5 years = 4,352,000 x 5 = 21,760,000 (Benefit) Cost = fixed cost + variable cost = 26,112,000 B/c >I. So the project is acceptable. RECOMMENDATIONS The project based on the above evaluation method is economically viable and technically feasible. I hereby recommend strongly the implementation of this proposed project.
