Over the years, Kaoma fish farms has made significant progress in rehabilitation and digging of new ponds. Last year the farm produced 369,000 fingerlings and this year it aims to produce over 700,000 fingerlings.
For the first time in its history, Kaoma Fish Farms has successfully produced Catfish fingerlings, marking a significant breakthrough in the farm’s operations.
For the Production methods, The farm collects swim-up fry from breeding ponds and transfers them to concrete holding ponds.
The fry then undergo sex reversal through feeding induced with 17 alpha-Methyl testosterone hormone .
After reversal, the fry are fed fry mash to grow them up to 5g before being sold to farmers. (This method is limited by the availability of water.)
