The Tilapia Aquaculture
Developers Association of Nigeria, (TADAN), has announced its readiness for the first harvest of the year.
With barely one month into the new year, TADAN has declared that the first set of Tilapia fish is ready for the market.
The harvest ceremony which is billed to take place this month would take place at the Ikere Gorge Dam, Ikere, Iseyin, Oyo State.
According to The Tide source, the harvest consists of a two-pronged process which is also expected to be greeted with the “Tilapia in cages”, a new initiative the association is aiming to promote.
In a statement released by the group and made available to The Tide and signed by the National Secretary of the association, Adedeji Fatai Abiodun, the association is launching the Tilapia in cages to develop the trade and also lend credence to the diversification of the nation’s economy.
“It is the first initiative by TADAN formed to develop and promote the culture of Tilapia in cages in our abundant water body in the country.
“With this initiative, we hope our association can be in the forefront to stimulate self-sufficiency in fish and export of fish”, he said.
He explained that the venture would save foreign exchange and create more jobs in the entire value chain.
