[b]Introduction


Maize, also known as corn in some countries and with botanical name Zea mays, is a member of the grass family Poaceae. It is a cereal grain which was first grown by people in ancient Central America. It is now the third most important cereal crop in the world. However, little of this maize is eaten directly by humans. Most is used to make corn ethanol, animal feed and other maize products, such as corn starch and corn syrup.

Maize Farming in Nigeria; Land Preparation
Once you have obtained your land and ready for your agro-business, the next thing to do is to get the land ready for planting. This can be done using two different approaches viz:

Traditional Means and
Mechanical Means

Traditional means of land preparation

This method is the one used by most farmers in the rural areas which involves clearing, gathering and burning of the bushy part of the land and then making hips or ridges where the crop will be planted.

This approach takes a lot of time and labor and is not recommended for you because you are expected to run your agro-business in a commercial scale. Since you are expected to work on a fairly large farmland, this approach will be energy, time and cash consuming. So it is not advisable to use this means.

Mechanical Means of Land Preparation

This is the recommended approach as it is very easy and fast means to use. If you are lucky enough to get a land that is free from trees and tree roots, you are expected to hire the service of a tractor which will help you till your land.

The tractor will turn the soil very well and this will help the plant in your farm to do well, as the crops planted on tilled soil tends to do better than the ones planted on untilled soil.

3. Dig a Borehole
Adequate water supply is the lifeblood of fish farm and lack of it may result to disaster because water need to be changed on regular interval. Naturally available sources of water such as borehole and river water are the most suitable. Rain water and tap water from chemically treated sources is not recommended for fish cultivation.

4. Install Overhead Tank
This is the water reservoir from which water is supplied to your ponds. This tank has to be connected to your ponds through plumbing system to make it convenient for water to flow into your ponds when needed.

5. Get Juvenile Fish
Get your juvenile from another farm that specializes in supplying it. You need to go for the high yield specie of catfish or tilapia and make sure you are getting it from a healthy farm.

6. Get Training
Not the kind of training you get from one day seminars; you need to get attached to a fish farm for proper apprenticeship. For you to properly learn this trade, you need at least two months training on this.

Remember that your investment is at stake, trial and error is not good in business except you have unlimited funds to experiment with.

Selection of Fish Breeds for fish farming in Nigeria

Selection of Fish breeds plays major role in the sustainability of our fish farming business. The decision should be based on market demand and maintenance point of view, availability of resource, effective utilization of resources etc

Below are the types of fish you can farm in Nigeria.



1. Cat Fish
Even though Catfish is not the most popular fish in Nigeria, this fish species is by far the most cultivated in Nigeria. One thing good about catfish is that it is one of the easiest fish species to cultivate. So, people naturally flow to the direction of fish species they found to be the easiest to cultivate.

2. Tilapia
Second most popular fish in Nigeria’s aquaculture industry, Tilapia is a fish species that lives in fresh shallow water. Tilapia is very easy to cultivate and very popular in Nigerian market, it reproduces very rapidly and grows fast too.

3. Mackerel (Titus)

This is by far the most popular fish in Nigerian market but so sad it’s not farmed. All Mackerel Fish are “wild caught” but some farmer in Nigeria are considering the possibility of creating artificial salty water that will be similar to sea water where mackerel can only survive. Can this deep blue sea fish species be cultivated artificially? Only time shall tell. But for now you have to focus your attention to Catfish and Tilapia.



Fish Feeding and Maintenance for fish farming in Nigeria
Special care must be taken while growing fishes. The water PH value must be 7 to 8 for optimum growth. Chances of virus attacks must be avoided. The pond should be protected from predators. Daily scouting should be done and suspected fishes should the isolated from pond to avoid spreading of diseases all over the pond. Diseases can be treated by treating water using salt, potassium permanganate solution, chemicals etc. It is better to prevent diseases than curing it.

The following article gives information on” Catfish Farming in Nigeria”.

Introduction to Catfish Farming in Nigeria

Catfish is a hardy fish that can survive in any kind of regions and they are easy to farm especially in warmer climatic conditions such as Nigeria’s. Raising catfish in tanks and channels are considered to be safest method as their waste and disease do not spread to the wild. Catfish farming is very profitable with low cost set up and due to the fact that these fish gain weight in short period of time. There are many varieties of catfish available across the globe. These catfish size varies depends on the variety and can get from small size to very large size. However, In Nigeria, commercial and small scale catfish farming business is becoming popular day by day. If you are interested in fish farming, these fish can be raised even in small tanks at home. In the following article let us discuss about raising catfish and its management.

Advantages of Catfish Farming in Nigeria:
Setting up commercial catfish raising business has a wide range of advantages. The main advantages of setting up commercial catfish growing business in Nigeria are listed below.

Fish and fish products has a huge demand in Nigeria. Fish is one of the most common and favorite item in the food menu of more than 55 percent of Nigerian people.
Market demand and price is always high for fish and fish related products in Nigeria.
The climate in Nigeria is very suitable for fish production and fish growing business.
Various types of easily found water sources are available. You can fill your pond with water from your nearest river; bore holes, lake or any other water sources.
Various types of fast growing fish species are available. Farming those fast growing fish species ensure rapid returns of your investment.
Easily available and low cost labor. You can also start integrated fish farming business with various types of animals, birds, crops and vegetables. Integrated fish farming reduces feeding costs and ensures maximum production.
Fish business in Nigeria is really very profitable and risk less business. Commercial fish growing can create new income and employment opportunities. Unemployed educated young people can start fish farming business. This will provide them both financial freedom and permanent income opportunities.
People with other occupation or job can also start fish farming business without impacting their regular work. If you have suitable land and facilities for fish growing then you can easily start doing this business.
If you want, you can also apply for bank loan. And there are more benefits of starting fish farming in Nigeria. If you have suitable land and proper facilities don’t misuse the possibilities. Start raising some fish. If you are new then start small scale fish farm business and gather experience. You can also visit some fish farms practically to have some knowledge.

Starting Catfish Farming in Nigeria

Starting a catfish farm in Nigeria is not so easy. For setting up profitable catfish farming business, you have to go through some procedures. I have shortly described various steps of catfish farming in Nigeria below.

How to Prepare Catfish farming site for fish farming in Nigeria:
1. Secure a Land
Any location is good since fish doesn’t cause any environmental disturbance. Look for land where you can get it cheap and buy. Depending on the capacity you wants to operate on, half plot of land is just good enough for average fish farm.

However, you may go for something bigger like full plot or two if you can afford it probably for convenience sake. If you already have a compound with leftover space you thing can accommodate two or three ponds, you may use it.

2. Construct Ponds
You need to engage the service of expert pond construction engineer or you go to another fish farm to get the specification and construction requirements. The plumbing work must be properly done to ensure proper drainage.

However, catfish can be raised in both new and old ponds. However, raising of cattish in the old pond is better than new pond. In case of using new pond, fertilizers, cow dung and lime should be applied to make the pond soil fertile for proper growth of the catfish. If you are planning to use old pond, the pond should be dried and removed any old fish or weeds from the pond before stocking catfish. If the old pond has too much of clay, remove excessive clay and any other harmful objects from the pond. Apply fertilizers and lime in the old pond. Cover the pond with a net to protect the catfish minnow (fingerlings) from predators like frogs and snakes. Filling the pond about 3 feet with fresh water is necessary for first time after making the fence around the pond. Catfish minnow should be stocked after 3 to 4 days of filling fresh eater.

3. Dig a Borehole
Adequate water supply is the lifeblood of fish farm and lack of it may result to disaster because water need to be changed on regular interval. Naturally available sources of water such as borehole and river water are the most suitable. Rain water and tap water from chemically treated sources is not recommended for fish cultivation.

4. Install Overhead Tank
This is the water reservoir from which water is supplied to your ponds. This tank has to be connected to your ponds through plumbing system to make it convenient for water to flow into your ponds when needed.

5. Get Juvenile Fish
Get your juvenile from another farm that specializes in supplying it. You need to go for the high yield specie of catfish and make sure you are getting it from a healthy farm. Select high quality catfish seedlings (minnow) of 2 to 3 inch size from the fish hatchery. Selecting minnow, of high quality with disease free and highly productive catfish is necessary for successful catfish farming. Stock the minnow in the pond and spray anti-fungal medicine in the pond after 3 days of stocking the minnow to prevent from any diseases.

6. Get Training

Not the kind of training you get from one day seminars; you need to get attached to a fish farm for proper apprenticeship. For you to properly learn this trade, you need at least two months training on this.

Remember that your investment is at stake, trial and error is not good in business except you have unlimited funds to experiment with.

Feeding in Catfish Farming in Nigeria
Feed should be supplied according to the body weight of fish in the pond. During initial 10 days of period,20 to 25 % of feed should be provided. Generally, catfish likes feeding at night times. So feed the catfish twice a day. Feed rate should be reduce to 10 to 15% after 10 days period. Catfish fingerlings should start taking the feed during day time when they reach 3 inch in size. After 4 weeks of stocking, try to provide 5 to 6 % of feed extra depending on the body weight of the fish. How do you measure the body weight? well, for measuring average catfish weight, measure the total weight of 20 fish and divide the total weight by 20. For example, total weight of 20 catfish is 2 kg, divide the result by 20. Now the average weight of one catfish is 100 grams. So, based on their body weight provide the feed twice a day i.e. in the morning and late evening. Care must be taken care while providing the feed as insufficient feed will result in unhealthy growth and gain less weight. Excessive feed also causes the pond polluted and increase the feed cost.

One, it must not be planted for commercial purposes during any time when there is too much sun especially if you don’t have a good source of irrigation as it will find it difficult to thrive during this period.
Two, it should not be planted in a waterlogged area or much of Sandy soil as it would drain easily.
And three, if you are planting it for commercial purposes, you must surely take adequate care of it that you are bound to apply fertilizer, treatment chemicals and stake the cucumber plant.
Then finally, you must make sure that your land is fertile.
Cucumber plant is not grown in the North alone. I have personally grown this plant in the east and am still in the business which pays handsomely.

Sourcing For Some Materials and Tools

Some if not all of the materials and tools listed above are available in the respective local markets near you. All you need to do is to seek the nearest agro-chemical shop near you and ask for these materials and tools.

Watermelon farming information guide; land for farming
To some people, sourcing for land has been one of their major challenge with regards to starting agro-business in a large scale. But this is because they lacked the information on how to source for land.

Don’t get scared! Because you don’t need to buy a land or own one before you could run your own agro-business.

You can get land for your watermelon and cucumber agro-business throughgovernmentagencies or from individualscommunities that has available land.

Community Rural Lands

Most communities around us has some large expanse of land that are yet developed. These land spaces can be leased out at a very cheap price by the community or the person taking care of the land like the Igwe, Orba, Obidepending on your location. All you need to do is to approach them and talk with them about how many acres of land you need to see if it is available.

This is one of the easy and cheapest ways to obtain land for your watermelon agro-business.all you need to do is to ask first and see if it shall be given to you.

When I started my watermelon and cucumber agro-business I was lucky to get a large expanse of land from a friend, but as I said, it was luck and it can also come to you. If not, try leasing from individual communities. It is sometimes free or cheap as the case may be.

Government Agencies

There are government agencies that offer land lease services to farmers in Nigeria. They have their offices almost around the 36 states in the federation. These agencies include:

1. River Basin Development Authority (RBDA)

2. Ministry of Agriculture

3. Land Settlement Scheme

All you need to do is to find the out about any of these agencies offices around you and then go to them. When you do, they will tell where they have available land for lease.

Acquiring land from these agencies is as easy as ABCD. They feel very happy to see someone that wants to venture into agro-business and are always ready to help you out. But you wouldn’t know until you go close to them. Some of them will even offer to till your land for you with tractor at a very cheap rate.
