Description
Ever wondered how you can open a business, without funding, goods and skills to offer?Well, IT IS POSSIBLE, and this course will show you how, using a common item that you may have seen in many dishes, i.e., fish. Fish farming is not common in developing countries. In fact, most fishermen travel long distances to rivers and lakes to fish, instead of keeping the fish at home. No wonder why most have probably never heard of this trade called aquaculture, which is the practice of raising fish in controlled environments such as ponds, tanks, or ocean enclosures for the purpose of producing seafood for human consumption. It is an important method of supplying fish to meet the growing demand for seafood worldwide. No one can say "No" to fish; they are delicious and nutritious. It is sold in restaurants, as canned foods, in butcheries and supermarkets. Fish farming helps reduce pressure on wild fish populations and can provide a more sustainable source of protein for human diets. Additionally, fish farming can create jobs, support local economies, and provide opportunities for economic growth in rural and coastal communities. The biggest advantage here is that you are always assured that you will catch, unlike throwing nets in a vast ocean; you have more control over your own type and quantity of fish, and your customers can rely on you for uninterrupted supply.This course will help you plan and operate your fish farm from start to finish. All the best!!!
