The Aquaculture Compendium is an encyclopedic, multimedia tool that brings together a wide range of different types of science-based information to support sound decision-making in aquaculture and aquatic resource management wor...
Climate is dynamic in the sense that analysis of some relevant climate elements revealed that natural forces have enforced change over centuries (Cunningham and Cunningham, 2004) and such changes are inevitable natural occurrences. However, anthropogenic factors have exacerbated climate change in...
EXCERPT FROM THE STUDY
In contrast to the rest of the world, per capita fish consumption in sub-Saharan Africa including Nigeria has declined to almost half of the global average and despite suitable natural conditions; aquaculture provides only 2 percent of the region‟s supply of fish...
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Economic history provides strong evidence that an agricultural revolution is a necessary precondition for economic progress. Ayoola (2015) opined that the agriculture sector has the ability to serve as an industrial and economic springboard...
BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY
Aquaculture is one method for bridging the gap between declining fish availability and growing global food fish demand. Africa, especially Nigeria, has limited aquaculture heritage and has been hampered by a variety of externa...
Background of the Study
Aquaculture has, in fact, matured into a worldwide resilient and essential industry over the course of the past three decades, recording the most significant and most fast growth among the food-producing industries. According to...
BACKGROUND TO STUDY
One area of the environment that has lately attracted global attention is biodiversity conservation. Biodiversity is defined as the variety and variability of living species and the ecological complexity in which they live as observed by Altier...

INTRODUCTION
The story of aquaculture in Nigeria is essentially the story of catfish culture and the hope of fish supply in Nigeria hang on its development and culture. Recent trends all over the world, point to a decline in landing from capture fisheries, an indicator...
Abstract
The increasing levels of environmental pollution by toxic metals from various sources have generated a great concern on their impact on human health. Rapid developments, increase in mining activities, farming, insurgency, industrial activities and waste disposals have gradually...
ABSTRACT
The irrational consumption of water is one of the greatest problem in the world today. Irrigation of agricultural crops with fish effluent is one way to solve this problem. Rather than disposing of effluents gotten from aquaculture; then providing nutrients from fertilizer and...
ABSTRACT
Automated system of fish farming has become inevitable due to the immense importance of fisheries aquaculture. The efficiency of any fish rearing system depends on monitoring and control of pond water quality parameters as well as adequate feeding and a reliable power source. T...
ABSTRACT
The effect of albino gene on intraspecific hybridazation of African Catfish and Albino Clarias gariepinus was carriedout to determined their latency period, fecundity, fertility, hatchability survival, growth performance, some morphometric and meristics characteristics and gene...
ABSTRACT
Studies on toxicological and sedative effects of Datura innoxia plant parts (leaf, seed, stem, pod and root) on Clarias gariepinus fingerlings were conducted under laboratory conditions using the static bioassays and continuous aeration. The aim was to develop an effective anae...
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Aquaculture, the farming of aquatic organisms such as fish, has experienced significant growth over the past decades to meet the increasing global demand for seafood (FAO, 2020). The success of aquaculture operations relies on several factors, w...
ABSTRACT: Developing curricula for vocational training in sustainable aquaculture addresses the critical need for education systems to prepare students for environmentally responsible aquaculture practices. The study aimed to create a curriculum that incorporates sustainable practices, evalu...
