dondo83:
Im in abuja and also into fish farming. I will like to learn the trick from you oh. how 120naira will feed a juvenile to 1kg. even with local feed is it possible to formulate at@120 /kg? I need your knowledge thanks

Okai I can send You materials and video link on how to substitute so that Your fishes weight 1kg and not look like they would weigh 1kg

dondo83:
120 naira per fish till melange? cos I know its not possible to spend 120 till 1kg

If You do foreign feed only 120 naira can get You to smoking size but if You alternate with local feed and some cost saving methods trust me 130 naira per fish You can 1Kg each.

MAAF:
Please correct the above, it's "juvenile of 4-6 weeks" not months.

Thanks Done

Factors to try and mitigate which might arise

1. Security men:Another Important information is choosing a security Man and a farm manager can either make or break Your business as these two people are as important as the fishes You stock in Your pond. Security men and farm managers have been known to sell feeds to other farmers and sometimes harvest fishes to sell to the market behind the owners back be weary of this.
2.Mentor: Get a God fearing Consultant/mentor if You are new to fish farming as Your mentor can rip You off and make a lot of profit of You in the name of consultation.
3. Vet: Have a vet doctor on speed dial in the event of an outbreak even though You might be able to solve most of the problem with salt but let an expert do it though.

That's a bush rat though....... Hope you guys enjoyed the meat.

Pls eh with the structure you have put in place, I perceive it's more cheaper than building cement block ponds.
Pls what is the depth of the pond?
how do you intend to harvest efficiently?

What was your total budget pls and has it accommodated all your expenditure?

Bush Rat weighted close to 2kg it was lovely.
It is actually cheaper to run an earthen pond than a concrete pond in reality operational cost wise it is cost saving but geeing the land can be a problem as You have to move from Your comfort Zone unlike concrete that can be constructed in Your back yard.

Harvesting is easy Bro its almost like catching fishes in a river as You have to use nets and two people have to man the net try and read http://www.arkshore.com/tutorials/ You would get alot of info.

My total budget has been overshot by fencing though but it is all good need to secure Your investment as it is both real estate and Agriculture too see the budget so far but Feeding would eat almost that same budget as I am budget N120 for each fish to eat. 120x18500=2,200,000

This is great. Entrepreneurship is the saving grace of youths in this uncertain economy. Fish farming is a good agribusiness to venture into, as long as you have the skills, knowledge, determination and wherewithal.

Meen I must commend You guys, Your page guided me in some decision making and However haven't been to the market of late and need to buy a PH meter as Your tutorial said need to monitor the PH closely for very good result.

Here is a video of the feeding of the juveniles. It is fun If You love the business

Now after all of that I have stocked the pond with 18,500 pieces of Juveniles not fingerlings. Fingerlings are too fragile for earth pond and would require heavy sorting after one month. juveniles of about 4-6 weeks old were procured at 20 naira each from Kado market in abuja from a reliable dealer. From the market to the farm the fishes were transported and are now 1 week old with a mortality of 18 so far minus cannibalism but so far so good the fishes are active and have adapted to the environment and feeding pattern all thanks to God and no problem from the community.

After digging the pond and bagged all the edges I bought the following

Nets- 6000 I used 2 which is 12,000: this net is used to protect the fish from predators such as frog, Snakes, birds......
Four 6 inches PVC pipes one cost 3,500 I bought 4 which is 15,000: This is the exit way for the water to come out of the pond through a flow through system.
2X2 wood cut into 1ft size to be used as pegs to hold the net.
Industrail salt 1,500 naira: This is used to lime the ponds to kill bacteria, reduce PH, drive away predators and also bring out nutrients from the soil. The Salt was used for the process called liming .

Before I proceed let me tell You when You want to start Fish farming and You are a Novice the first people You meet would always want to milk You till You are dead like literarily be careful. So the next step I took was to survey the land which cost about 60,000 maximum but the people who brought me to the community said the surveyor they used cost 150,000 and I paid the money but after that I cut them off because they were after making money and not after helping a fellow farmer like them.
After Survey I cleared the land, (we even caught a big rabbit while clearing, since any rabbit post makes it to front page) with about 20,000 removing most of the cash crops in the way of my business (Note: when I was buying the land I negotiated all of the cash crops into the purchase of the land so as to avoid the community coming back to collect more money from me for clearing).
After that I fenced the whole land even though I did not budget for it and it was quite expensive but this saved me alot of hussle I spent a total of 350,000 fencing the whole land including labour. I used wire net and galavanized steel pole to fence the ploes mearsure about 6Ft and cost 600 for one and I used 100 with a spacing of 8ft apart, while the net cos 13,000 for 18M and I used about 16 nets. The importance of fencing Your land cannot be underrated as after I fenced people started coming up to say I took their land and then I told them If they had any problem with it let us go to the palace and settle it obviously they knew I would win and they all declined and I have my peace now. There is no encroachment whatsoever. Nothing irritates more than having to face land grabbers when You are doing business.

After fencing We started building the Farm house and digging the pond simultaneously yes it cost money either you go hard or You go home.
The Farm house cost about 420,000 to build a store with a room and roofed it cost more than budgeted because of the Land topography swampy and had to fill them with alot of stones so we avoid future complications. The ponds cost about 40,000 naira each to dig and bag, I dug 4 ponds which cost me about 160,000. all this took a week and 3 days to achieve as long as You keep the money rolling.

So after booking the meeting we went to meet the chief of the village and I declared my interest in getting a land for "farming purpose" and he told his sons they took me to the bush and measured out a Land of 250X150 Ft and said their asking price was 1Million Naira. Note (this one millionaire is cheap for the amount of land to be given to me. But under the law that money is seen as settlement not that You really own the land as You have to process other documents with FCDA and AMAC). The Igbo man in me priced the land and got it for 650,000 naira only. I came the following week and paid the money and was issued a letter from the chief's palace stating the amount of land I was given their process makes the land authentic. when You are taking the paper for processing.

I have been searching for Land for fish farm for the Past 7 months was not an easy Task. Infact that is when I knew that even with Your money in Nigeria You might still not get what You want or better still be swindled off Your money. I was taken to different places Kubwa, Kuje but none of them fit what I wanted or the budget was alarming I was almost giving up before my Wife who is a Lawyer referred me to a man that just bought land and needed their services to help write a "power of attorney" and "Sales Agreement".
At fist I was hessitant and then I booked for a meeting to see the place and when I saw it I immediately fell in Love with the place. My spirit leapt for Joy when I saw it. Lik that feeling You have when everything is going right.
The location of the Land was not far from the major express about 7 mins drive, sorry the name of the community is "SABURI" it is before Dei Dei for those familiar with abuja. Like I said 7 mins drive and it was an urban settlement with rural ethics.

My farm name is Kaliedoscope
My specialty is Fish farming

That's because my primary market is the U.S., UK, Canada and Australia. That said, the lowest budget on our contact form is "Under $2,500" meaning we work with even the "small guys"

Okay small guys like us can thrive a bit on that budget sent You a linkedin add up Onochie add let me tell You more about our startup and then we can take it up from there cos we launch in one month.

How can You help startups because i see Your campaign budget is in some thousands of dollars and most companies starting up would not have such budget. Basically how can You support small businesses? would be interested in talking about my startup with You

Even though what the OP wrote there is rubbish but there is some truth to it lets say biologically. A man does not have to love a woman to want to have sex with her but a woman must love a man before she has sex with him because women were wired that way. Most of the women who end up cheating 95% of time love their extra marital partner, that would pose a danger to Your marriage.

germainediva:
Same with women.......we all cheat but still love our partner......not really easy to have sex with one person all ur life.

Listen and Look out for a Man with a goal, Your problem is look for meen who seem to be comfortable and looks can be deceiving as You get to meet men living a champagne life style on Bottle water Salary.
Look for a man who is committed to a goal in life not a man who wants to be rich by anything possible as he would see You as a possibility. There are so many Goal driven men out there.
And by what You are saying You are desperate and on a scale of 1-10 in terms of looks You are on a 4 (no offense) that is why these men want to chop and run. And they are feeding off your desperation. I could go on and on but You need not give into the pressure of getting married. People would take advantage of anybody who is desperate.......

The major reason why evil thrive more than good is because is innovative and looks for better ways to reach its existing and New customers while Good just remains being good typical example. When Snapchat came out all the thots, sex providers, strippers etc..... started using this social network and it has become an evil hangout. I dont want to mention Facebook, instagram and twitter. You can just be scrolling your Timeline and start see Nudes you never requested for that is evil being innovative coming to your doorstep. Now if Evil is Using the internet for her gains, What is good doing? when they asked this question in Jamb last year everybody failed it apart from me.
"Good" is busy building bigger churches, decorating and improving the place of God making it posher. Businesses have moved from offline to online and the church cannot still move online fully because it would not be too profitable for them (my opinion please dont argue). Now how many preachers are on snapchat, twitter, facebook, instagram sending people request and telling them to repent, there are but the numbers are low.
Good need to be more innovative and leave those mondane ways of life and face the new reality, Evil is working tirelessly and has many agents and good has many fancy buildings and fat accounts.

I can Never take the Media seriously and all this investigation the Telegraph did came after Buhari has signed a deal with China to include the Yuan in Nigeria's foreign reserve to reduce dependence on dollar..hmnnn smell something fishy is this not the same Buhari that goes to visit You people everytime during Campaign (Chatham House) and After election...... why Slander His Image?

But in this life either you stand for something or You stand for nothing.

To me, Atheists who think "belief" is the only problem of this world and Theists who think "belief" is part of the major solution to the problems of this world are no difference. It is either they are both blind or not being realistic.

I Just tested the account number it is Actually for the senate president see pics below

I read Your nice logical post about religion, I have got to hand it to You made sense Logically and I dont blame You. I dont have problem questioning religion, but God is like that part of the equation where a physicist would say this is a constant K.

ValentineMary:
And my man with good eye sight can't differentiate between fiction and reality. Oya clap for urself.

If its someone like You asking, am most definately putting my hands down like for real I dont want to be lead by a blind lady.

ValentineMary:
And later they would ask people that have sense should raise their hand and u would follow.
