The Market

Due to Nigeria’s high population growth in and growing income, the demand for eggs and poultry meat has continued to increase significantly. This also has been the case for Catfish production too. As more Nigerians enter the middle class, demand for animal protein has been on the increase. According to estimates by the USAID (United States Agency for International Development), this trend is very likely to continue over the next few years. The Nigerian poultry cum aquaculture industry has been rapidly expanding in recent years and is therefore the most commercialized (capitalized) sub-sectors of Nigerian agriculture contributing more than a combined 35% to the nations GDP in 2016 alone.
