Cat Fish Farming

In the agricultural sector of the Nigerian economy which employs about 70% of the active labour force, fish occupies a unique position in that it is the cheapest source of animal protein consumed by the average Nigerian, accounting for up to 50% of the total animal protein intake. Although the uncontrolled fishing exercise in the Nigerian coast aquaculture has been growing at some 20% per year since 2003 and continues to attract many investors and new farmers diminishing returns are important to consider in this business.
