I am making a research on the above topic and would like to know what I should look out for. Topic- Is inconsistency in government policies and poor regulations affecting the aquaculture development in Nigeria?.
Inconsistency in government policies and poor regulation can indeed affect aquaculture development in any country, but the net results would much depend on people's/fish farmers' will, knowledge base, dedication and cooperation, which would decide the rate and benefits of aquaculture, as of any other sector.
As mentioned above, yes, these can certainly have effects on the development/expansion of the aquaculture industry. If you are looking for specific topics in which to look for inconsistencies or poor regulations, I would probably start with antibiotic use, water treatment regulations, and/or pond management regulations. Antibiotic use, in particular, is always changing and can have important implications for the ability of an aquaculture program to expand and move forward.
Indubitably, poor regulations and political instability have a detrimental impact not only on all aspects of economic growth and intellectual development but also on the growth of aquaculture.The main reason is that when a complicated, centrally planned, sociopolitical and economic system becomes instable, it is easily derailed and the people lose their faith in it.
Poor policy it is one of the major factor which hinder aquaculture industry. Since the policy is made by politicians who even not aware about the industry.
