Can you shed more light on this? I thought the major need is market buyers
there are so many things involved. from buying the right fish and the right size of fish from hatchery, to buying the right feed and the adequate quantity you need to achieve a table size fish at maturity, to know how many months they should be kept, to also knowing the quantity of fish per square metre that should be accommodated to achieve proper growth honestly the market is not just the last but even the least important because so long as you have fish at maturity people will come searching for it day and night

Dry season vegetable farming is very good and lucrative just that it requires little capital especially for bore hole and no much post harvest loss unlike raining season when everyone goes to farm.

I'm saying 1 million is more than enough to start farming, so if you have 1 million and you are still waiting around maybe you are not serious.

Just checked your profile and sorry if I misread you...

If you invest money in fish farming and are lucky, you will make 6 times the money you invested. If you do cassava farming, you'll probably make 3 to 4 times.. The first one is riskier.

You can find pond constructors here: https://www.vconnect.com/lagos-ikorodu/list-of-fish-pond-construction-vendors-search_s492
When you get it constructed by a farm, you can partner with them for your first run to ensure everything goes fine. Better you make 2 times profit and learn than lose all the money due to lack of experience.

Also check http://www.jovanafarms.com/fishpond.html

For cassava farming check out: http://farmresource..com.ng/

flower business ke!
naija ladies are after money not flower.
If you know your way, you can export. Competition can be quite stiff though because I've seen some really large flower farms with over 50 workers that service Europe and the Americas.

Forget this bloggers oo...

As far as Agricultural business is concern, only some one who is in the business and know the four corners of it, will come out and tell you the lucrative part of it.

Bloggers go just copy and past online materials.

There is technique to all business, especially agriculture,

Mr Op.
what made it profitable. what is the demand and supply ratio,
which area in nigeria are in high demand, where do u source the product and what is the profit margin,
how much does a start up need, where do u get loan if you dont have money,

Thanks. I only need guide on livestock farming like pig farming, as far as cassava is concern I don't think I need guide , I can handle that effectively well, am just thinking may be cassava is not all that profitable.thanks

Rabbit farming should be added to that list. I do it on a part time basis or what you call backyard farming aside my full time job.

Catfish farming requires alot of funds, require quality stock(else runts can be sold to you), feed is costly, borehole must work constantly and type of pond(earthen, casted/block, plastic, wood/tapolene ponds) that is prefered also depend on location and space available.

He must first of all glue his head together again. You can ask a vulcanizer to help you. Or a tailor to sew your head together again.
