Prospects and problems of aquaculture in Borno State, Nigeria
Borno State has a great potential for fish production from the culture and capture fisheries, regrettably the potential for the former is still yet untapped despite low productivity of large rivers and lakes that are already over-exploited. Aquaculture has the potential to help expand the resource base and reduce the pressure on capture fisheries, generating employment, foreign exchange and elevating socio-economic of the farmers. This paper therefore, reviewed the prospects and major problems of aquaculture in the state with a view to fortify interest on fish farming.
