Hello robonski15,

Please I would also like some information about the following (if it isn't too much trouble abeg help):

1. Blagdon Anti Fungal and Bacteria drug and where I can get it for my Catfish.
2. Detailed info on how I can produce fingerlings by myself - that would REALLY be great.
3. How to go about the songhai training - I would LOVE to visit to learn more about it especially in the area of the cost for accommodation, feeding, transportation to & fro, BEST times to visit etc., etc.

Thanks a lot in anticipation and please keep up the good work. My email address: t4dlamai (at) gmail (dot) com

Great u are back on your feet, lets have your formula,then we give input, if your formula needs it

Gnc - 30 kg
soya - 30kg
fishmeal - 22kg
maize - 12
wheat - 8

lysine -0.5

Its a good formula.. But I hope the fish meal is "dannish".. I can see that GNC is higher than the fish meal, I would prefer u increase the fish meal and lower the GNC and soya a little... Then at about a month before sale u can decrease the fish meal and increase the GNC and soya.. Cheers

looking at composition, your formula is rich in protein,but emphasis should be on palatability also,someone invited me after producing a formula to a farmer, d formula was very rich in protein, but fishes reluntantly feed on it,fish meal(danish) 72% is d best to bring out good response,younger fishes need more for good growth, maize is commonly undigested,can reduce a bit,but rich formula

Yea...fish smoking is profitable, thoough marginally. If you are expecting magic, don't venture...the market builds gradually.

You can get any of these ovens (coal, gas or electricity). Do indicate if you need one. prices of the oven varies based on sizes. Eg, the size that can dry 75 to 100 fishes @ a go goes for about N80,000; while d one that can dry between 150- 180 goes for N150,000.

Smoked fishes can then be packaged and sold to organisations. You need develop the market...from your networks, etc.

Please note we still require melange fishes. If you have, please reach 07068820428 asap.
