RECENT DEVELOPMENT ON CATFISH FARMING

Fish farming in Nigeria is recognized as one of the most profitable agriculture in Nigeria and has developed since early 1940s The colonial administration in Nigeria began to play closer
attention to the colony's local
resources, which included
fisheries, during World War II.
The government established a fisheries organization in Lagos
in 1941 and preliminary surveys and experiments were
conducted in the ponds, lakes
and lagoons of the area. 2. Late 1940s In 1945, the organization
became a section of the Department of Commerce and
Industries. 3. Early 1950s By the 1950s, the organization had grown to become the
Federal Fisheries Services. In 1954, the operations of the branch were split between the federal and regional (Northern, Western and Eastern) governments. 4. Late 1950s to the 1970s Fish catch increased tenfold between 1960 and 1970. 5.
