Thank you, AAA and Moritz, for this thoughtful report and the clarity it brings to the scale of animal farming challenges in Nigeria. Your recommendations are timely and strategic.
At iCare-Fish, we’re currently piloting fish welfare training programs in two large aquaculture cluster farms in Southern Nigeria, following baseline assessments conducted earlier this year. These studies revealed preventable welfare issues, which we’re now addressing through practical training focused on humane handling, stocking density, and water quality.
We’re glad to see a growing focus on this neglected area and would welcome collaboration or insight from others working on scalable, field-based interventions for farmed fish in Africa.
