The new factsheet produced by the CGIAR Research Programme on Aquatic Agricultural Systems shows prospective farmers what to think about in preparation of setting up a small fish pond.
Fish ponds can provide food for the family and excess for the market.
CGIAR states that before starting, think about how much fish your family needs to eat, whether you will also have extra fish to sell, where to sell your fish and whether you can sell them at a profit.
