To start a successful cat fish farming business, or any other kind of farm business, success is a mix of properly planning and executing your venture. The first part involves assessing what you have to offer the market and finding opportunities to supply it. The second step is developing a plan that will ensure your success.
Cat fish farming can be done in ponds, but it’s more likely that you’ll build a ‘fish camp’ near water that features several different setups with varying degrees of capacity. All these setups will require tanks, nets and traps for catching the fish as well as pens for containment and feeding troughs for the animals to consume their food.
You’ll need to plan for the housing of the animals and offer them places to breed, be fed and given fresh water. In this regard, you’ll have to do everything you can to ensure that the fish are happy because the happier they are in their environment, the better they will taste.
Cat fish farming is not a profitable business all by itself. You can only make money from it if you sell your product on the open market. People are more likely to buy cat fish when they see it at a market or restaurant, so your main source of income will come from selling your products directly to them.
