    Description: This study investigates the factors, which inhibit or facilitate adoption of fish farming technologies by individual fish farmers in Niger State. There was significant relationship between six of the ten variables investigated and these have contributed significantly (p〈0.05) towards predicting the adoption scores of the fish farmers. It is believed that proper assessment of these factors by researchers could be used by policy makers and executioners to improve adoption of fish farming innovations. Significant factors include farmers’ age, education, pond size, access to credit, sources of information and income level. Recommendations were made involving change agents and policy markers for future fisheries and aquaculture development in Nigeria.

    Adaptation strategy by fisher folks to climate change in Ogun State, Nigeria coastal fishing communities: implications for sustainable artisanal fisheries livelihood (2021)

    Description: The study examines the vulnerability and adaptation options of individual fishing households to climate change. Fourteen out of 24 fishing communities, with a total population of 20, 0000 artisanal marine fisher folks living on the 15 km coastal line in Ogun State, South West Nigeria were studied. Sources of data are Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with fisher-folks and questionnaires administered to 186 fishing households to assess vulnerabilities and methods of adaptation. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results of qualitative data reveal that the area is subjected to flooding due to storm surges during the rainy season months of May ? October hindering several socio-economic activities. The major adaptive strategy is fishing the seven marine beels during the peak of the wet season. Descriptive statistics reveal that 92.5% who are male, attained primary education (47.3%) and fishing is a major source of livelihood (92.50%). Different fishing gears are used for the capture of more than 16 fin-fish and shell fish species. Adaptation needs should be mainstreamed into the development of the abundant fisheries resources for guaranteed sustainable livelihoods of marine fisher folks in Ijebu-Waterside of Ogun State, Nigeria.

    Safety and quality concerns associated with fish production (2021)
    Fisheries Society of Nigeria | Lagos (NIgeria)

    Description: Global aquaculture production has grown rapidly over the last 50years. It is generally accepted that there is limited potential to increase traditional fisheries; consequently, increased aquaculture is required in order to maintain global per capita fish consumption at the present level. With nearly half of all fish eaten today coming from farms and some 12 million people dependent on fish farming for their daily income, ensuring that farmed fish products are safe to eat and of the highest possible quality is crucial. Most of the work reviewed in this article describes the safety and quality issues in farmed fish, implications for consumers and presents methods to improve product characteristics.

    Description: This paper reviews the role of modern fish aggregation devices (FADs) in fisheries. The types and principles of FAD application were discussed. Factors influencing fish aggregation (like species type, etc); classification of fish aggregation; and reasons for aggregative behaviour of fish, were also highlighted. Furthermore, use of durable materials and echo-sounders were observed to be common with modern FADs, with high fuel efficiency, longer life span, as some benefits. This paper therefore emphasizes the need for proper study of issues like the biology of aggregation, and the relationship between catch and effort to discourage system or resources abuse, like overfishing, among others. Keywords: Fish aggregation devices, fisheries resources

    Description: The pari parsu development and good management of both capture and culture fisheries if proactively practised especially in coastal and marine ecosystems would, to a large extent ensure sustainability in the usage of the fisheries resource, and conservation of biodiversity. While by-catch, discards and less desirable fish can continue to be useful inputs in aquaculture, the practice of environmentally sustainable aquaculture on the other hand would lead, not only to the reduction in pressure on the wild fish stock , but also become a source of socio-economic and technological development. The risk of weakened and reduced genetic diversity in aquaculture is being offset by enrichment of genetic pool from the wild fish population. In this review, the losses and gains of capture fisheries have been highlighted in addition to the gains and negative impacts of aquaculture. The success of capture-Based Aquaculture (CBA), enhanced fisheries, restocking and intentional introduction of fish species are all based on either branch of fisheries (capture and culture fisheries). The complementary roles both capture and culture fisheries can play to ensure optimal environmental usage and profitable use of the fisheries resource have been discussed. The strengths and weaknesses of both capture and culture fisheries can be wisely tapped for the development of both aspects of fisheries.
