Our Strength • Production of high quality fingerlings • Provision of ON-FARM training for prospective graduate and non-graduate individuals. • Value added catfish i.e. smoked catfish, live package fish hamper etc. for both local and international market. • Employment generation within the local communities.
Constraints • High cost of feed components which is 65-70% of cost of production. • Inadequate livestock and aquaculture subsector intervention. • Inadequate/expensive post harvest machinery e.g. smoking kin or hood to produce quality smoked fish. • Marketing and sales problem i.e. farmer finding it difficult to sell fresh fish at the right time and even when sold, middlemen taking the fish off the farmer at there own price and terms.
