Abandoned fish Farm litters the Country
In this era of diversification mantra and non existent forex fish farms are closing shops due to high cost of feeds.
The federal government should as a matter of urgency intervene in this sector to arrest the current prevailing loss of jobs and investment.
The cost of buying foreign feeds have skyrocketed while the local alternative has headed sky ward also making the venture no longer profitable.
While, imported fish, like Titus and others go for over a thousand naira per kilo the home grown cat fish sells for between 350 & 400 Naira .
