Please, how much will it cost to feed 50,000 juveniles for 6 months?
What is the average consumption like daily/weekly/monthly? What other costs should be factored in for a project of this size? I want to work on a cashflow projection for a proposed fish farm and your input would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

My fellow nairalanders,,here is my fish pond,just about 500fish , since our oil is no more in vogue. so i turned to agriculture.


Love people with this kind of heart
Always on point.







God bless Nigeria!!!

BELEXYFARMS:



Water level is low because he is doing some work in the pond.... Either sorting, harvesting or simply changing the water.
Thats the way a used fertilized pond will look like. It cannot be 'sparkling clean'. U will see algae on the walls which in itself is not bad but rather advantageous to the fishes.

Ralphlauren:


You are talking rubbish!!

Just because you are set in your dirty and unhygenic ways does not mean that's the way things are done.

In sane countries, that 'fish pond' will be drained, all the dish destroyed and the "fish farmer" prosecuted for breeding livestock for public consumption in a dirty environment

opeaceo:


Hian, you insulted him because of his opinion?? In "saner" countries, they make use of earthen ponds and the waters are not clean, in fact, most times, the are "green" in color, it takes a lot of work to wash the ponds and the more you wash, the more they wear off, the more they leak.

seangy4konji:
Try and clean that pond regularly...

Heard it helps them grow better.

Aitee1:

Op you're inside with them don't they bite?

Atlantian:
Looks dirty. No bacteria there ? Believe me, I cant eat any fish from that place.

bigerboy200:

The fishes u buy,do u know the condition of the ponds or river they were harvested from

hinduskoso:
well done my dear,,keep it up,,i need fingerings nd juveniles,,i wanna join d club,,fishtins on my mind.

atoleybaba:
cleaning d pond too frequently will make d fish weak or stressed out.

Atlantian:
No, but I damn well know they are not from this kind of dirty place.

BELEXYFARMS:



The more you talk, the more you sound ignorant and its obvious you dont know anything about fish farming. Well just to educate you a bit : fish ponds cannot be 'sparkling' clean. There are different types of ponds. Some fish ponds that use the recirculatory system will be 'sparkling' clean because thats intensive fish farming. Generally fish ponds are fertilized with manure (poultry manure or cow dung) before the fish are stocked in the pond. Non-organic fertilizer can also be used. The manure helps to fertilize the ponds and the growth of algae shows the pond is fertilized. Visit any big fish farm especially the people that use earthen ponds so that you will be more informed of how they prepare their pond for stocking. For your information, theres something called integrated farming whereby you raise different lifestock together. On very big farms in some countries, the waste from poultry (chicken poo ), pig poo etc are directed into the fish pond to serve as food for the fishes.
Let us encourage the OP with our words instead of us trying to discourage him. He is just trying to make a honest living with what he is doing.

Atlantian:


I agree, I am ignorant in fish farming, but any fish from such dirty ravine is not entering my mouth, I will prefer monsanto fish or the freshwater shark to those. Spare me the mumbo jumbo, I am not interested.

BELEXYFARMS:



Okay, just thought I should let you know so that when next you eat 'fresh water' fish you will have an idea of how they are farmed

N. B. Catfish is a fresh water fish

Atlantian:
Then I will eat more catfish and not mudfish. Thanks

BELEXYFARMS:


Catfish is also called mudfish bro

N. B. The OP is rearing catfish in his pix.


Have a nice Sunday sir. Ciao!
