The aim of this manual is to analyze Crude protein content of garden snail so as to provide information which will help in incorporating these non-conventional animals into fish feed. The feeding cost of fish takes 60% or two third of the total operational cost in fish farming. This has been a major factor affecting the development and expansion of Aquaculture enterprise in Africa. The success of fish farming depends invariably on provision of suitable and economical fish feed. A survey of fish farms in Nigeria in 2004 showed 86% of fish farms do not use standard supplementary feed due to high cost of production. snail meat meal is preferable by the catfish for optimum growth and nutrient utilization Supplementing Fish Feed with Garden Snail e-manual N2000 08036320607 lamsonopeyemi@yahoo.com

You can start both. As for me I rather go for pig farming first. B/cos it is easier to start, It start up capital is low as far as you have space. thier feeding, no qualms, they eat anything but you can supplemnt it. Buyers are readily available, especially in the south-south. 1 Like |

i have been into fish farming for over 5yrs now, although i started with fingerlings production. i have at no point recorded a loss in harvest because i do my research well. one of the main advantages of fish farming in my experience is ready available market so i wonder why people said they are having problems selling thier fishes. i dont even have to look for buyers b4 harvest time, when the fishes are ready, i just make phone calls to those market women n within a week or 2 they clear the stock. the major problem i see with fish farming is too many advisers that lead farmers astray. some farmers dont have a picture of how capital intensive feeding of the fishes are n run into trouble in the middle. for example, as a very rough estimate just for you guyz to have an idea, a 10g fingerlins will eat 1kg of feed to grow to a size of 1kg spread over 4-6mnths. now starting with imported floating feeds and gradualling changing to local feeds, d 1kg of feed will have an average cost of N250. so feeding 1fish to size of 1kg is aprox N250 n you sell 1 fish for N350 per kg, so profit on 1fish is approx N100. now imagine u stocking 5000 fingerlins, u will need a wooping N1.2million as variable cost and this is what a lot of people dont know. as long as you have a good picture and you have the money or resize ya expectations to fit ya pockets, u wont run into problems. other important factors are stocking density, good fingerlins, good feed and management. |

Thanks for keeping this site on; can someone please send an updated market analysis of fish and or pig business. I must encourage everyone who is interested in doing any business to continue-but there should be no limit in learning process. Put your mind to it and don't be greedy; success shall be yours. As per the china catfish-Personally I don't eat them. In conclusion the demand for poultry, meat and fish will continue to increase like every other consumables. |
Re: Pig Farming Or Fish Farming? by akanxpress: 12:29pm On Mar 14, 2012 |
In my area - Akwa Ibom, most pork joint don't operate consistently because they don't have regular pigs to meet their needs. That means there is ready market for pigs here. As earlier mentioned, It is possible that we don't breed the right size and specie of fishes even though Nigeria imports fishes to meet local demand. From the market, the 2 principal types of fishes in ready demand are: Ice fish (Titus, etc.) and Dry fish. The dry fish are usually small (some fingerlings sized) and mostly fitted to sticks. My belief is that for fish pond business to fit into the fish market structure, they may have to breed those type of fishes that they can dry and sell to match the existing ones in the market or we have something similar to Ice Fishes - Comments pls |
