    Techno economic considerations of shark driftnet fishery off Lagos, Nigeria. (2006)
    Nigerian Institute for Oceanography and Marine Research | Lagos, Nigeria
    Details
    Publication Date: 2021-05-19
    Description: Experimental fishing operations with driftnets were conducted in Lagos coastal waters with a view to finding out appropriate gear for effective exploitation of sharks and other pelagic fish species that are not normally caught in trawls. The design and fabrication of the driftnet as well as the fishing trails were undertaken b/w May 1977 and April 1978. Nine driftnets of equal panels have three different streched mesh sizes of 190.5mm, 228.3mm respectively. Six of the driftnets were baited while three were unbaited. Analyses were carried out on species composition of catches by weight and number, catch efficiency of the driftnet as well as the operating cost and financial returns.

    Description: There are more occupational and health hazards in the Fishing Industry than in other occupational categories in the world. In Nigerian Industrial Fisheries, safety measures are regulated while little attention is given to safety standards in the artisanal fisheries. In West Africa, the coastal artisanal canoe fatality rates have been given in 1991-1994 to be 300 to 1,000 per 100,000 fishermen. Thus, the fatality rate in Nigerian artisanal fisheries, (coastal states) has been estimated to be 999 to 3,329 per 100,000 fishermen. The high rate is due to piracy, boundary disputes between fishing communities, unemployment, societal low value for human life and human labour. The paper discusses the various types of accidents associated with artisanal coastal fisheries and give recommendations. Fishermen have rights to safe working conditions in their working environment just as workers in offices and factories on land.

    Description: This study was conducted to evaluate the socio-economic analysis of small scale fish farmers in Lagos state fish farming estate in Ikorodu, Nigeria. The primary data were obtained from 60 respondents with structured interview guides and face to face interview, which were selected using simple random sampling techniques. The result revealed that most (88.3%) of the fish farmers are male while (31.40%) are in the active age distribution of 31-40 years, university education (63.0%) and 58.3% were married, 73.4% had a household size that ranged between 3 - 5 persons. Results of the descriptive analyses and tests of significance however showed that there was a significant relationship between socio-economic characteristics and constraint of fish farmers in the estate, there is also a significant relationship between income of fish farmers and constraints of the fish farm enterprise. Implications of these findings were critically-examined, and pertinent recommendations were proffered based on the salient findings in the study.

    Description: The study was carried out to identify the roles of Egun Women in Fisheries in Oto-Awori of Ojo Local Government Area of Lagos State, as well as factors affecting their roles. Data were collected using the purposive sampling to select 20 Egun Women involved in Fisheries in each of Araromi, Idumosan, lIepete, Idomila and Ebute areas in Oto-Awori, using questionnaire method. Data were analysed using the percentages and Chi-square tests. The results revealed that 80% of the Egun Women were engaged in Fish Smoking, Fish Icing (65%), and Fish Marketting (85%). Factors limiting effective participation of the Egun Women in Fisheries were discussed with a number of recommended strategies which can make Egun Women contribute to increasing fish supplies in the area.

    Description: The role of water in fish production could not be overemphasized. This is because water is required for the total functioning of fishes. This study therefore examined the relationship/effect of rainfall pattern on fish production. Secondary data were collected on mean annual rainfall and total annual fish output for the period of 10 years (2000-2009). The study showed that high rainfall was recorded in the year 2001 which marked the lowest fish production year due to floods effect on fish enclosures. These therefore implies that fish farmers should be encouraged to construct ponds with protective measures such as screens, dykes, freeboards, etc. which prevents total loss of stocks during heavy rainfall.

    Description: The effects of diesel-oil spillage of fresh (0.4ppt), brackish (25ppt) and marine (37ppt) waters on elongation (cm) and breaking load (kgf) of artisanal PVA synthetic twine of varied diameter (4mm, 6mm, 8mm and 10mm) soaked for 16 weeks was studied. Chemical (solubility) test was carried out to identify the experimental twine as PVA among other synthetic twines. The elongation (cm) and breaking load (kgt) of PVA twine diameters were tested by tensile-strength gauge machine (0-200kg) and was carried out in unpolluted (control) and polluted states (spillage level) at 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% diesel-oil concentrations of different water salinity. Factorial statistics was used to analyze the treatments; twine (at four levels), water salinity (at three levels) and concentrations (at six levels). This implies 4 by 3 by 6, replicated in four places (288 treatments). Results indicated that elongation (cm) and breaking load (kg) of the specimens were significantly (P〈0.05) influenced by twine thickness. Twine l0mm soaked in 3.0 litres of unpolluted freshwater had significant (p〈0.5) correlation coefficient r,0.927 and lowest r- value of 0.499 was obtained in twine 4mm soaked in 100% diesel-oil concentration. Significant (P 〈0.05) relationships were observed between the correlation coefficient r = 0.531-0.927 for unpolluted and r = 0.499-0.592 for polluted tests. The study revealed that diesel-oil spillage had negative effects on the quality of twines. The thicker the PVA twine diameters (10, 8, 6 and 4mm) at lowered (0%, 20%, 40%,60%,80% & 100%) diesel-oil spillage of fresh (0.4ppt), Brackish (25ppt) and Marine (37ppt) waters respectively, the higher the significant (P〈0.05) elongation (cm) and breaking load (kgt) were evaluated in most cases.

    Effects of soaking on artisanal polyvinyl-alcohol (PVA) synthetic fishing twine in freshwater, brackish and marine waters (2021)

    Description: Elongation (cm) and breaking-load (kgf) effects on artisanal Polyvinyl-Alcohol (PVA) synthetic twine of diameters 4mm, 6mm, 8mm and I0mm soaked in fresh (0.4ppt), brackish (25ppt) and marine (37ppt) waters for 112 days were investigated. Chemical (burning) test was carried out to identify the experimental white twine as PVA, among other six locally synthetic twines (Klust, 1973). A tensile-strength gauge machine (0-200kg) was used to test the mechanical strength properties of PVA twine diameters in dry (control) and wet states. Results indicated that elongation and breaking-load of the specimens were significantly (P〈0.05) influenced by R- Tex. Elongation and breaking-load were observed to be highest in dry twine 10mm with means of 20.75a ~c 1.05 and 140.00a ~c 5.37 respectively, higher in twine 10mm (with means of 20.40b ~c 3.50 and 131.75b ~c 5.l0 respectively) soaked in freshwater and lowest in twine 4mm (means of 1 4.83fg ~c 0.31 and 33.70h ~c 1.00 respectively) soaked in marine water. Twines of the same diameter (l0mm, 8mm, 6mm & 4mm) soaked in fresh water (0.7ppt) has highest significant (p〈0.05) elongation and breaking load than those soaked in brackish (0.25ppt) and marine water respectively. The thicker the PVA twine diameter, the higher the significant (p〈0.05) elongation and breaking load, which could lead to increased mesh sizes of fishing nets constructed from such twines. Fishermen are therefore encouraged to air-dry their fishing nets or gears when not in used to extend the shelf-life.
