  • Chapter One Introduction
    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Project Overview The lubricant sub-sector of the downstream industry is one with so many potential that is capable of being a major source of revenue earner for the country, and has grown over the years with increase in the number of second hand passenger and commercial vehicles in the country calling for more frequent lubricant changes. Though Nigeria has an installed lubricant capacity of 600, 000 metric tonnes the current demand is 700 million litres which is about 1% of global demand. The lubricants market is driven by various steps being taken by government such as initiatives to increase the ease of doing business to boost manufacturing sector activities and the Nigeria Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP) to emphasize investment in infrastructure. With the increase of import duty on finished lubricants to 30% and the recent 7.5 percent VAT on finished lubes in the country, the sectors have been opened up for further investment and the proposed project considered in this study is set to explore the given opportunity. Though there are presently 34 lube blending plants in Nigeria, only two of these (5.9%) are located in the south- south region of the country (DPR, 2020). This proposed lubricating oil blending plant project by Eraskon Nigeria Ltd is thus a private effort to support the government of Nigeria on how local production of lubricant can be increased to boost its domestic availability especially in the south-south region of the country. 1.2 Project Proponent Eraskon Nigeria Limited is a lubricant oil manufacturing company incorporated in Nigeria by the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) with RC No.

  • A Review of On-Farm Feed Management Practices for North African Catfish (Clarias Gariepinus) in Sub-Saharan Africa
    463 A review of on-farm feed management practices for North African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in sub-Saharan Africa Thomas Hecht1 Department of Ichthyology and Fisheries Science Rhodes University, Grahamstown South Africa Hecht, T. 2013. A review of on-farm feed management practices for North African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in sub-Saharan Africa. In M.R. Hasan and M.B. New, eds. On-farm feeding and feed management in aquaculture. FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Technical Paper No. 583. Rome, FAO. pp. 463–479. ABSTRACT This review considers feed management practices for North African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in sub-Saharan Africa. Clariid catfish production in the subcontinent is increasing exponentially, particularly in Uganda. Semi-intensive pond culture is still the most prevalent production system, while intensive tank culture is becoming more popular in peri-urban areas in Nigeria. Total production in these two countries now exceeds 178 000 tonnes annually. Catfish are now commonly spawned and their larvae reared in hatcheries for ten to 14 days, after which they are reared in nursery ponds or in tanks. Extensive rearing of larvae, after yolk sac absorption, in ponds is now less often practiced than in the past. Where it is still practiced, successful larval rearing and satisfactory survival rates depend mainly on adequate fertilization schedules. Feed management practices in hatcheries are closely matched with the physiological and endocrinological ontogeny of the fish. For optimal survival and growth, live food (mainly Artemia) is required for the first five days after the start of exogenous feeding, after which the fish can be weaned onto a dry starter feed.

ARMBRUSTER* Department of Biological Sciences, Auburn University 331 Funchess, Auburn University, Alabama 36849, USA Abstract.—Catfi shes are a broadly distributed order of freshwater fi shes with 3,407 cur- rently valid species. In this paper, I review the different clades of catfi shes, all catfi sh fami- lies, and provide information on some of the more interesting aspects of catfi sh biology that express the great diversity that is present in the order. I also discuss the results of the widely successful All Catfi sh Species Inventory Project. Introduction proximately 10.8% of all fi shes and 5.5% of all ver- tebrates are catfi shes. Renowned herpetologist and ecologist Archie Carr’s But would every one be able to identify the 1941 parody of dichotomous keys, A Subjective Key loricariid catfi sh Pseudancistrus pectegenitor as a to the Fishes of Alachua County, Florida, begins catfi sh (Figure 2A)? It does not have scales, but it with “Any damn fool knows a catfi sh.” Carr is right does have bony plates. It is very fl at, and its mouth but only in part. Catfi shes (the Siluriformes) occur has long jaws but could not be called large. There is on every continent (even fossils are known from a barbel, but you might not recognize it as one as it Antarctica; Figure 1); and the order is extremely is just a small extension of the lip. There are spines well supported by numerous complex synapomor- at the front of the dorsal and pectoral fi ns, but they phies (shared, derived characteristics; Fink and are not sharp like in the typical catfi sh.
