At Plain-Field Global Heritage we are committed to providing our customers the finest quality product available when you want it, where you want it, and the way you want it.
Catfish are very efficient farm animals. This means that a pound of weight can be put on these animals with less feed than other agricultural animals.
By far the most important food fish grown in Nigeria is the catfish. These are raised in all part of the country because they are fresh-water fish. Catfish are different from most other fish. They have smooth skin instead of scales. They are meaty and have a mild flavour. Also, catfish fit well into farming operations because they are hardy and tolerate relatively low oxygen content in the water.
The production of catfish begins with the breeding process. Through a system called selective breeding, superior fish are used to provide eggs for hatching. Factors such as growth rate and meatiness of the fish are used to determine which fish are superior.
That is why, at Plain-Field Global Heritage, we lay more emphasize on how to produce quality and fast growing fish; because many farmers who put their money in fish farming failed because of poor quality of the procured fingerlings and insufficient knowledge.
