It depends on your design of each. I once had a fish pond directly opposite my turkey house. I only observe general Bio-security on them and I never had any issue traceable to the 'co-habitation' of the two. |

Agriculture / Nigeria's Central Bank Agree On N300billion For 2016 Agriculture Lending by Yommiefish(m): 5:56am On Jan 07, 2016 |
It is no longer a news that fish farming is becoming a gold mine every entrepreneur or anyone willing to take advantage of the agricultural revolution in Nigeria really need to look into. Fish production for instant made the list of the products the Monetary and fiscal authority are working together in a collaborative manner to improve on with a strong believe that it can lead to a reduction in the demand for foreign exchange. This I believe is a good news for intending farmers and entrepreneurs. In an article posted by The Africa Food Project recently which reads: Emefiele said: “Banks have set a target to boost agriculture lending to both small and commercial to about N300 billion in 2016.” He noted that the bankers generally agreed on the need to increase lending to the agricultural sector but the committee feels there is the need to de-risk the agricultural value chain. Monetary and fiscal authority must work together in a collaborative manner to improve the local production of specific agricultural product like rice, tomatoes, fish,wheat and sugar which can lead to a reduction in the demand for foreign exchange. He emphasized the need to improve infrastructure in various sectors and particularly urged government to build more Fadama road, more sailors and warehouses to receive final produce so that they do not get destroyed in the farms. Governor Emefiele said: “We seized the opportunity to exchange ideas with the ministers about their agenda and what they planned to do and how they expect the banking industry to support their effort. “All in an attempt to ensure that the banking industry is seen to be contributing to grow the economy in line with government objective to diversify the economy away from oil.” The retreat identified that SMEs play import role in the economy and explored how to improve support to the agriculture value chain and what can be done to develop large scale commercial agriculture in the country. The committee also felt that there is the need for a paradigm shift in the feeling that SME are endangered species to lend money. They agreed on the need to take SME through capacity building on important areas like book keeping to make them bank-able and boost lending to the sector. The seasons Identified power and transportation as strong enables in the environment. Previous outcome retreat has help to increase lending to the manufacturing sector, facilitating finance to the power and the Aviation sector and incentivize lending to the agricultural sector from 1percent in 2010/2011 to 4 percent in 2014. He advised corporate organisations in Nigeria to emulate Fidelity bank in making their promos transparent. Source: africafoodproject.org Posted by: catfishplus. |

The most common method of terminating a contract of employment is by the delivery of a written notice of termination of the contract on the opposite party. Where a notice of termination is served, the contract automatically terminates at the expiration of the period of the notice of termination. Either party could equally elect to pay compensation in lieu of the employee working for the employer during the period of the notice of termination. |

Agriculture / Shocking! How You Can Make 200k With Just 2 Fish Ponds. by Yommiefish(m): 3:41pm On Dec 28, 2015 |
Sure one of the decisions some of us are looking into making as we enter the new year revolves around a better financial year. For those who may be thinking of the kind of business to start in 2016 or those who have been in the business but are merely getting-by plus those who may never consider agribusiness, particularly fish business as a great avenue to earning fortune. I want to shock You. As an experienced fish farmer. There are so many questions from farmers on how to make the most of their fish business experience. Recently, a Pastor friend asked me if he could make 200k with just 2 ponds. My response made him so inquisitive. I told him that it is a cheap possibility to make 200k with just 2 ponds, only takes a bit of some 'home work'. How on earth can one make 200k from just two ponds when someone with three or four has not even make half of the money. Anyway, there is no magic about making such an amount with just two ponds. The simple techniques I gave my Pastor friend and the lessons that came out of it is what I want to share with you today. So today, I will be writing about how you can make 200,000 returns on your investment with just two ponds. Success in fish business is a cheap possibility, but only for those who know and play by the rules of the game. My concern today is to help spell out some simple rules that can guarantee success. How can we run our business in such a way that we are guarantee success almost every time. How can we invest in fish business and we are sure we are making a wise investment decision. Not too many people really know the how-to successful fish farming; and that explain why so many farmers are frustrated and vowed never to go back into the business. This million dollar question is the reason why a lot of fish farmers has abandoned their ponds and allow anything grow in them except for fish. It is also the reason why some over the years have remain consistent in the business. Is there a roadmap to profitable fish farming? How do you maximize your experience? How do you predict the success of your venture. How do you enter into a business with a level of certainty that you are not into trial by error. What are some of the decisions you must make to be sure you are on a right course. #1 Guaranteed water supply: The importance of water cannot be over-emphasised in fish business. The enter fish business is spelt W-A-T-E-R. The fish depends on it for their survival. As a matter of fact, it is their life. This is the first resources that must of a necessity be in abundant supply, both in quantity and in quality before embarking on this viable venture. No matter the culturing system you are adopting adequate water supply is a necessity. We have different sources, the common ones being well water and borehole water. Water is the most critical factor for a successful catfish farming. You need a water source that you can depend on all-year round. Until you have pass this #1 test, never consider yourself qualified to start fish business. # Well designed and spacious pond: What Size of ponds will give you 200k returns on your investment. I know you are asking. We have different types of ponds for raising catfish, you can choose between a earthen, concrete, mobile ponds and etc. Whatever the type you are considering, you need a pond that can contain let say 1100 (depending on your target now) fishes each which is about 15x20feet. Mobile pond is fast becoming the choice of most farmers. We have quite a nos you can choose from. # Quality Stock: There are just 2 ways you can guarantee this; either by hatching by yourself(or contract it out) or buy juveniles or at least post fingerlings from a Reputable farm. The truth here is such farms are very few. I can tell you from experience. Your choice of where to buy your stock is one of the most important decision you can make where success in the business is concern(https://catfishplus./2015/11/07/catfish-farmers-you-choose/) #Quantity of Fish: How many fish will give you 200k returns? I know you are eager to know. But before I answer that, I need you to know there are 2 major market for catfish: Big size of above 1kg and smoked size between 250g - 500g. The market you choose will determine the time frame and also the quantity of fish you can stock in each pond to arrive at your target profit. Let's say you are targetting above 1kg you will need about 2100 pcs of juveniles, with 1050pcs in each of the ponds for the period of 3-4months following a recommended guide. # Quality of feed: There are so many feeds that offer good promise of quality, but just few delivers on their promises. Seek counsel on the type of feeds to buy per time. This is so important. Another point to note is the recommended quantity of feeds to be used must be available and be strictly adhere to(The next point shed better light on this) # Follow a Guide: This is where most farmers missed it and quite a number of farmers are still missing it. How do you know what your fish should consume in a day, in a week and in a month? What should their growth be like at different stages. Which hour of the day at different season is suitable to feed your fish per time to maximize feed efficiency? What's the the total weight of feeds your fish must take for a given period that would suit your target market? What type of feed? How do you cut down on feeding expenses to maximize your profit? How do you when to stop and when to feed on? These are some of the most important and professional decisions that a guide can help you with. It is your road map to successful business. Never ever assume this in your own interest.(Request for a guide here: www.facebook.com/Naijacatfishbreeders # You Must Observe Fish Growth.: You need to know if you are feeding right and if the fish on the other hand are feeding right. By this I mean if the average body weight gain is commensurate with their their feeding rate. Yes, you are feeding the prescribed quantity of feed, good for the fish, but how are your fish converting the nutrients. This observation can help you make quick, and important technical and economic decisions that could safe you from serious economic loss. Technically speaking, you might need to adjust your water quality to be more suitable and favourable to the fish growth. And economically speaking also, the fish may have reached their peak because of their genetical make up(we have so many of such). Some fish don't grow beyond 500g no matter how hard you feed and this Is why I emphasised buying from a relliable source or breeding by yourself. Whatever your choice you must look out for this tendency and that is why observation is key. It can save you few thousands. To be continue.. 1 Like |
