The animal has a short gestation period (58-72 days), a low production cost, matures early, is simple to manage, and requires little capital to set up. Nigerians are among the Africans with the lowest consumption of animal protein, consuming less than the World Health Organization's (WHO) recommended 67 g per day. Because their multiplication rate is not commensurate with the rapid increase in human population, the commonly reared conventional livestock species cannot meet the protein deficiency.

Apricot, as one of the first stone fruits to ripen, has the shortest growing season, lasting from mid-May to mid-August. Apricots thrive in well-drained, silt or sandy loam soil, though some rootstocks confer tolerance to wetter soils.
The primary factor determining a site's suitability for apricot production is climate. Apricots require winter chilling to ensure adequate bud production, and while they can tolerate cold winter temperatures, they grow best in areas where spring frost is unlikely.
