Fish constitutes about 41% of the total animal protein intake by the average Nigerian hence there is great demand for fish in the country..The demand for fish according to the federal department of fisheries (FDF) was 2.1 million tons in 2007 while domestic production was 600,000 tons.

This deficit was partly augmented by massive importation of fish of about 900,000 tons valued at over $800 million dollars. This is a big drawback on our scarce foreign exchange.
This still left a huge deficit of 600,000 tons, hence the concerted effort to ensure self-sufficiency in fish production through aquaculture in Nigeria.

The demand for Fish in the country is currently estimated at about 2.66 million tons annually, as against the local annual production of just 780,000 metric tons, giving a demand-supply gap of about 1.8 million tons. It is very clear that the demand is far higher than supply. What do you see as an entrepreneur? Business opportunity!


Chairman of Fisheries Society of Nigeria (FISON) Rivers State chapter, Dr. Awoteinm George revealed that “Nigeria produces just 40 percent of the total Fish consumed in the country”. In other words, a 60 percent local production market is waiting for entrepreneurs to fill.


You can start small from the back of your house learn about their behaviours and feed formulation which takes about 75% of the investment.

nice one op. but please clarify people as regards the weight of the fish. so they wouldn't be misled.
That is not 15kg. Try to minus the weight of the bucket to get the weight of the fish.
Let us know the weight after doing that.
Well done.
