LASUSTech student becomes a fish farmer
She told Yen.com.gh:
"I started from Anambra state, my state of origin. My uncle is a fish farmer to date so I watched him do it and I learnt a lot while growing up. And then I’ve always loved agriculture, I’ve always loved farming and coming from a family of farmers, farming is something I couldn’t resist. I found myself doing it and I’m loving it more as I go further. Agriculture is one of the best or greatest choices one can ever make in life."
The young farmer said fish farming is a lucrative business but that it requires proper training for those who want to venture into it.
Her words:
"Yes, fish farming is very lucrative with proper planning and management. My advice to people who intend to venture into fish farming to get trained. Because mistakes in fish farming can be very costly."
