PROPOSAL TO CONSULT AND SET UP A FISH FARM OF 10,000
CAPACITY OF CLARIAS
In
fish farming the first culture chamber used was the earthen pond, and because
of the requirements about the quality of soil which must have 75% clay and
retain water. Other qualities which disqualifies other farm sites brought about
a concrete pond in which one can culture fish in any farm site even in the
compound. But because of some problems in concrete ponds brought about
the latest pond designed which is tarpaulin pond, this pond is mobile and dose
not need one going into any form of constructions.

LIMITATIONS OF CONCRETE PONDS
1.
The chemical from the cement affects
the fish all year because of the reaction with water.
2.
The concrete pond is prone to be plastered
every season because of the cracks as a result of reactions with water and
cement .
3.
The cost is high.
4.
The growth rate of the fish is not
encouraging.
5.
A lot of treatment is needed before
the pond can be used after construction.
ADVANTAGES OF TARPAULINE POND
1.
You can culture fish even inside
your compound.
2.
You can use a temporally site to
start your fish farm.
3.
It is the ideal replacement for
earthen pond.
4.
It enhance faster growth of fish.
5.
It makes the fish to feel as if the
environment is natural.
6.
It is cheaper and does not need
servicing all season.
COST IMPLICATION IN USING A TAPOLINE
POND.
A pond of 10ft by 20ft will cost
N50,000 and galvanized pipe used for the stands for the 20ft by 10ft by 4ft is
N18,000, making the total cost of the pond to be N68,000.
COST OF POST FINGERLING OR THE FISH
SEED.
We have three breeds, and their
prizes on growth rate differs, we have one of N10, N20 and N35 respectively.
And after six months of culture their growth rate will be 1kg, 1.5kg, and 2.5kg
respectively.
So the cost for N10 is N100,000
N20 is
N200,000
N35 is
N350,000
But the size of the fish determines
the market, if 1kg of fish is sold at N400 the 2.5kg will be sold at N1000
plus.
COST OF FEEDING
In fish farming the cost of feeding
goes up to 75% of the money spent in fish farming and that is why is good that
one must culture the breed that will grow well.
N1000 fishes will consume 50
bags of feed and a bag is sold at N4500
50x10 ponds = N500 bags in all
500x4500 = 2,250000.
WATER TREATMENT
This treatment is done in water
before stocking fish to prevent shock and any form of bacterial in the water.
Each pond will cost N5000
5000x10 ponds = N50,000
GROWTH BOOSTER
This is a multi mineral supplement
mixed together with the feed everyday to boost its growth
1 liter is sold at N1000 and 100
liters are required which is = N100,000
PLUMBING
The outlet and inlet connection of
the ponds will cost N100,000.
THERE
ARE MANY WAYS OF REDUCING THE COST OF FEEDING, AT LEAST SAVING 20% OF THE COST
OF FEEDING. THE BENEFITS IS FOR THOSE AM CONSULTING FOR
TOTAL COST
Cost of Ponds : 65,000x10 =
N680,000
Cost of fish seed
:
= 350,000
Cost of feeding:
=2,250000
Cost of water
treatment = 50,000
Cost of booster
:
= 100,000
Plumbing:
=100,000
TOTAL:
= 3,530000
COST OF INPUT
= N3,530000
OUT
PUT
When the good breed is culture and
fed well the average weight of the fish will be 2kg.
And at whole sale price will be at
N700 and if 9000 fishes survives the out put will be 9000xN700 which is = 6,300000
Gain = output – input =
6,300000 – 3,530000 = 2,770000
