Catfish farming can be profitable in Nigeria, with some studies reporting high returns on investment:
Profitability
Some studies have found that catfish farming can be profitable, with a return on investment (ROI) of 60–90%. For example, one study found that catfish farmers in Kaduna State had a net farm income of N559,950 per year, with a return on investment of 91.5%.
Profit margins
Catfish can be profitable because they sell well in restaurants, eateries, and for home use. The high demand for fish means that the profit margin is high.
Short ROI
Catfish grow quickly when fed properly, so the return on investment is short.
Easy to farm
Catfish farming is easy to do in warm climates like Africa. You can set up a catfish farm in residential and commercial areas as long as there is space.
However, some challenges to catfish farming in Nigeria include:
High production costs: The cost of feed and fingerlings can account for a large portion of total variable costs.
Poor quality: Poor quality of fingerlings and fish feed can reduce profitability.
Insufficient capital: Insufficient capital can be a constraint for farmer

Are the catfish or fish in your ponds dying of swollen belly? Below are some of the reasons why!!!

Disease Name : Bloat, Dropsy
Disease Type: Bacterial or gram-negative
Cause/Organism: Multiple causes, usually stress or environmental

Description

Dropsy is the buildup of fluid inside the body cavity or tissues of a fish. As a symptom rather than a disease, it can indicate a number of underlying diseases, including bacterial infections, parasitic infections or liver dysfunction.

SYMPTOMS

* Swollen belly

* Scales stand out

* Bulging eyes

* Loss of color/Pale gills

* Faeces pale and stringy

*Fins clamped against the body

* Ulcers

* Loss of appetite

Symptoms vary widely. Some fish present with the classic swollen belly, others display skin lesions, while still others show few symptoms at all. This variability is what makes diagnosis difficult. However, in most cases, a number of symptoms are observed, both physical and behavioral.

The bacterial agent that causes Dropsy is one of several gram-negative bacteria commonly present in fish habitats. This can also happen as the result of stress from a number of factors, such as:

*Poor water quality

*Ammonia or nitrite spikes

*Large drop in water temperature

*Stress from transportation

*Improper nutrition

*Aggressive tankmates

*Other diseases

TREATMENT

Move sick fish to a hospital tank

Add salt to the hospital tank, 1 tea spoon per gallon

Feed fresh, high-quality foods

Treat with a broad spectrum antibiotics like Mardel Maracyn.

Keep the tank scrupulously clean, and perform weekly partial water changes.

PREVENTION

Perform regular water changes

Keep the tank clean

Clean the filter regularly

Avoid overcrowding the tank

Do not overfeed

Use flake foods within one month of opening

Vary the diet

Stop overstocking!

Catfish is low in calories and packed with lean protein, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals. It's particularly rich in heart-healthy omega-3 fats and vitamin B12. It can be a healthy addition to any meal, though deep frying adds far more calories and fat than dry heat cooking methods like baking or broiling.

Improving feed utilisation is important. Scientist therefore measured individual weekly feed intake and body weight of broilers to characterise the dynamic feed intake patterns and investigate their relationship with growth performance.

Over the past few decades, significant improvements in the feed intake and feed utilisation efficiency of broilers have been achieved through advanced breeding procedures, although dynamic changes in feed intake and their effects on the feed conversation rate have remained unclear.

Chinese scientist from the State Key Laboratory of Animal Biotech Breeding and Frontier Science Centre for Molecular Design at China Agricultural University in Beijing, carried out a study measuring individual weekly feed intake and body weight of 274 male broilers to characterise the dynamic feed intake patterns and investigate their relationship with growth performance.
