Profitability Assessment: A Case Study of African Catfish (Clarias gariepinus) Farming in the Lake Victoria Basin, Kenya John Kengere Okechi, KMFRI,Kisumu,Kenya Páll Jensson, Professor University of Iceland,Reykjavik

Motivation  No reports on the economic evaluation of aquaculture production systems in Kenya (other than the few case studies on tilapia).  Yet economic considerations are crucial in the selection of an appropriate aquaculture production system.  Currently aquaculture is almost entirely for subsistence, with little surplus production being sold in the rural market.  Fish farmers lack information on how to asses profitability  This has hampered aquaculture development in the country.

Study area Basin/Catchment area: 38,913 Km 2 Densely populated = 9 million people Annul rainfall of 1,000 – 13,000 mm Temperature range of 14 – 34 0 C Multi-river basin *Enhanced potential for Aquaculture development.

Aquaculture contribution to total fish production in Kenya (adapted from FAO 2002) Background information Annual Production: Average: 180,000 Metric tonnes (MT) Commercially important fish species: Lates niloticus (Nile perch) = 58% Rastrineobola argentea (Dagaa) = 30% Oreochromis niloticus (Nile tilapia) = 10% Aquaculture < 1% of the total production (main species: tilapia, trout & catfish)

Why catfish farming?  Grows fast and feeds on a large variety of agriculture by-products.  Can be raised in high densities resulting in high net yields (6–16 t/ha/year).  Higher price than tilapia as it can be sold live at the market.  Hardy and can tolerate adverse water quality conditions.

Goal/Vision  To develop a decision support tool for profitability assessment of fish farming.  To study the Feasibility of Catfish farming in the Lake Victoria Basin.  The vision: This might in the future be valuable for the sustainability of fish farming in Kenya.

Fish Farming Assumptions

Investment Assumptions

Production Assumptions

The models developed  Production model for one pond  Production model for 12 ponds  Profitability model: Investment & Financing Operating Statement Balance Sheet Cash Flow Profitability Measures & Sensitivity Analysis

One pond model  Pond size 800 m 2  Stocked with 4000 fingerlings at 5 / m 2  Limed at a rate of 5 tonnes ha -1  Urea at a rate of 90 kg ha -1  DAP at a rate of 30 kg ha -1  Supplementary feed (daily)  After every 2 weeks pond is sampled (mean body wts & % survival rates)  Used to compute biomass of fish in pond  Based on biomass fish is fed daily for culture period of 28 weeks  Fish harvested, net production weight determined & sold at Ksh. 120/kg

One pond production model Production data on monoculture of the African catfish, density 5 fingerlings m 2, mean temperature °C

Summary: Revenue, costs and net profit contribution.

Twelve pond model  Information from one pond used to prepare production planning model for 1-ha (12 ponds each 800 m 2 )  Two ponds stocked with catfish fingerlings every month to have continuos production  After 6 months in operation all 12 ponds were stocked and the first 2 ponds harvested in the 8th month  Economics of scale

Production schedule for 1-ha (12 ponds) catfish farm during first year of operations > Able to tell how much of the resources needed at any particular time of operations  In stocking more than one pond, benefits from the economies of scale

2nd year of operations Yields Yr 1 : 9 t/ha Yr 2: 12 t/ha

Profitability model

Investment & Cash Flow chart

Profitability measure: NPV

Profitability measure: IRR

Sensitivity analysis

Conclusions  Purpose of study: To develop a generic tool to assess the profitability of fish farming.  A valuable management tool to aquaculture farmers, investors and financial institutions and banks.  Based on the assumptions and analysis of the model, catfish farming appears feasible and profitable along the LakeVictoria Basin, 9t/ha/yr -12t/ha/yr.  Need to test modeled yields in real farm situation  Uncertainties and risks: Monte Carlo simulation

By-products Two documents developed:  Brochure: Fish Farming-getting started  Record keeping and data collection for small scale fish farming
