Starting
Your Own Business
Starting any kind of business needs knowledge and experience in the
related field. If you are new to the fishing business, it might be a good idea
to start small and gather experience as you progress. Managing a business
requires many of the administrative skills, be it fish farming or any other
business. It also means that you will not have a boss to give you directions
and you will have to make all your decisions on your own, if you do not have
any partners.
Gain
Knowledge
To start on your own in the aquaculture fish industry, you must
first learn all about fish farming. Learning about fish farms will prepare you
to make educated decisions. Visit some of the fish farms in your area or meet
with people just like you who have entered the fish industry. The internet is
vast source of knowledge. You could find all about aquaculture and fish farming
from websites on the internet. Consider signing up for classes visit webinars
and such, if you can, to gather more information about the business. Every
business has its own challenge, and you should do whatever it takes to gain first-hand
knowledge about the business. Taking a part time job at a local fishery might
also give you hands on experience.
Set Your
Goals
Setting your goals before you start your business is very important
at the beginning of your venture. You should know exactly what you are going to
produce, in what amounts, how many people you will need, how much money you
will spend, and how much profit you can expect from your business. This would
be the first step for you towards making a business plan. Preparing a business
plan will allow you to incorporate your business, get necessary government
documents, or licensing, help you to choose the right location, get
environmental clearance, and so on. You will also need a business plan to get
funding from a bank or get investors.
Analyse
Your Market
Once you know what you options are and how much money you need, the
next step should be analysing the market. Who are your buyers? What type fish
is most profitable? How much can you supply? Have you contacted anyone for your
special needs or in case an emergency arises? Have you considered all expenses
associated with your business? You need to think it through.
Set Up
Your Business
Since you want to start small, you can set up a fishing pond right
in your backyard. It is also possible to raise fish in a fish tank in your
garage or indoors. You can easily get all the supplies you need to set up your
small fish farm and start fish farming. If you have buyers ready or know that
you can easily sell your fish, make your fishing pond or tank big enough to
make enough production. Buy your supplies at wholesale prices. You can find
wholesale fish supply stores online as well.
Backyard
Fish Farming
If you have decided to operate from home, you could designate a
place in your back yard for a pond. You could easily dig a pond, and put fish
in it. You may have to process your water to make it suitable for young fish.
You can buy small bags of fish from a hatchery near you. Make them you feed
your fish with appropriate proper diet and take care of your pond or fish tank.
Harvest your fish and enjoy.
