Background of the Study
Fish farming is an important part of the agricultural sector in Minna LGA, contributing significantly to local food security, employment, and economic development. However, many fish farming enterprises face challenges related to managing their cash flow effectively. Poor cash flow management can lead to a shortage of working capital, difficulty in meeting financial obligations, and ultimately, business failure. Proper cash flow management is essential for maintaining operational stability, facilitating expansion, and ensuring long-term sustainability. This study will assess the cash flow management practices of fish farming enterprises in Minna LGA and their impact on business performance.
