water facilities determine how fish are to be raised. Likewise, the method of
raising fish has considerable bearing on the planning and construction of
facilities. And once a facility is established, it is usually not practical to
quickly change to another facilities.

combination of facilities unique to that particular farm. Economy, Usefulness

Things You Need To Get Started With Catfish Farming In Nigeria
The proper attitude
In life,
your attitude towards a thing always makes a difference between success and
failure. To become successful in catfish farming, you must approach it with the
right mindset. Don’t expect to start making millions immediately. You must be
ready for the challenges that come with business, in this case, a catfish farm
business.
Knowledge·
No matter
the amount of capital you have to invest in a business, if you don’t have a
simple knowledge about it, you’re heading to utter failure. Never invest any
money into catfish farming without taking the time to learn the strategies used
in running a successful catfish farm. In order to get this knowledge, you need
to partner with an experienced catfish farmer and also attend seminars and
workshops pertaining to catfish farming.
Good
land
A good
land for fish farming should be accessible by road, have a clean place for the
farm house ponds and a good drainage system.
Reliable Water supply
The truth
is, no water, no fish. You can’t successfully run a catfish farm if there is no
reliable source of water supply near your location. You must ensure that there
is a constant water supply because the fish cannot do without water. Overhead
tanks must be mounted or a borehole system would be perfect.
Pond construction
You can
choose a plastic tank to minimize cost or you build a concrete pond. Without a
well built pond, your business may fail in no time. So, don’t try to fix it
yourself. Get the service of an experienced fish pond builder.
We have a long way to go. Very positive contributions
to make good profit to be made taking a cue from agriculture crop farmers, the
good farmer look after their crops. Before planting they make sure the soil is
well prepared. They select good soil or good seedlings. They water their young
plants regularly and remove weeds. They use manure or fertilizer to increase
growth and watch out for pests and diseases.
HARD WORK produces a good
crop, but laziness or neglect will result in a poor harvest!

mating.

indoors in pens located in a building. The snails are fed a mixture of fresh
vegetables, concentrates, and other food materials. The system utilizes little
space as the snails could be raised even in trays placed on shelves on the
walls. In advanced management, the system allows for temperature regulation,
controlled lighting, regular cleaning, and health care.
Out-door System:[/b]In this system, snails are
raised out-doors on pastures. The snails may or may not be fed. The farmer has
little control over the performance of the snails. The snails move about
feeding on natural food materials.
How To Start Snail Farming in Nigeria.
Snail farming is very profitable in Africa and it is also one of the neglected animal farming business in the region.Snail farming provides great opportunity to make money with a very short time.But Africans have not really started engaging in this lucrative farming business because of ignorance.There is a believe in countries like Nigeria and Ghana that snails can only be picked in the bush, so they are finding it difficult to believe that snails can actually be reared and grown at home.
Africans are yet to discover the money making potential of heliculture.
