Waooooo, being reading this thread since. Also that of poultry as I have being thinking of going into farming. Live stock especially.

For Robonski, you started this thread and you have being there still.

Everyone is just doing the best for the thread. God bless you all.

Hmm, me I love to start but having approval challenge from hubby. Poultry he no want fish he still dey complain.

Now I have someone who wants to lease out fish pond to me and also get one of Hus boys to monitor it within his farm ie the peraon will feed them and change their water while I visit weekends to see how the fish is doing in the ponds.

He said it will cost me 20k per pond to rent. And each pond will contain 2000 fish. Is this advised? I plan of doing 4k fish that is two ponds.

Thanks.

Also stylishly try and find out the reason why d ponds are not being used by d owner and if there are any issues. Be very observant and try to notice things around d pond. Ask to see drainage and where it leads to, water supply etc
If its 20K per annum, den its cheap coz in my area its between 30K to 50K per annum for a similar pond dat will take d number of fishes u mentioned.

OK thank you so much.

I just spoke with him now. The 20k is for the period the fish will get to maturity. So it not one year. If am breeding. twice a year that will be 40k p/a a pond.

The size of the pond he said is some 45*45 whuch he said can contain 4k fish self, 15*15 and so on. He has many ponds on his own but cos its his business he has landed properties in the same area where you can own one and you can choose he manage for you or you manage yourself as time permits.

Am going on Saturday to see things myself and ask question myself.

Thank you.
