CHAPTER ONE

preface

1. BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY

The country food situation during the last and present decades becomes as critical as to constitute a nearly intractable problems. The problems are accessioned by high rate of population growth which has arisen the failure of food product to manage with public demand. Agrarian sector has a unique part to play in the hunt of putting the Nigeria frugality on the product of balanced tone reliant and non inflationary growth. The study of profitable history provides us with sample substantiation that an agrarian elaboration is a fundament product for profitable development. The agrarian sector has a implicit to be the artificial and profitable spring boards more frequently than not agrarian conditioning are generally concentrated in the less advanced pastoral areas where there’s a pivotal need for metamorphosis, re- distribution, poverty relief and social profitable development.

Agrarian conditioning comprises of crop and beast product, there have been growing enterprises in the recent times at the low position of protein input, especially of beast origin in malignancy of colorful agrarian development strategies espoused in Nigeria, diurnal per- capita, beast protein input estimated as lower than log or remains as far cry from the food and agrarian association( FAO) recommendation minimum demand of 35g( Usman 2003) in order to bridge this gap, it has been suggested that there’s the need to explore of or source beast protein in addition to the conventional source similar as ruminants and flesh( Olayide and Heady 1981) one of the important indispensable source of beast protein, which has entered fairly skimp attention in Nigeria as the crawler.

The problem of beast protein input in Nigeria has encouraged experimenter to look for source of protein from beast which are reared with little or no capital. Micro beast similar as crawler, glasscutter and rabbit have been domesticated and a lot of work is going on aimed to increase their vacuity at a reduced price, Crawler ranch environmental friendly and can be done with little chops( Alkinusi 1988 NCR 1991).

In Africa countries crawler product is also applicable and according to some experimenter, crawler in Africa is known as Achatina Fulica and other achatinal species, giant Africa draggers. They can grow up to 326 mm( 1ft ¾ inch) in length. Their native range is south of the Sahara in East Africa. This crawler was deliberately introduced into India in 1847. There was an unprofitable attempt to establish it in Japan in 1925. It has been deliberately and accidentally transported to other pacific locales and was inadventenly released in California after World War II, in Hawaii, and latterly in North maimi Florida in the 1970s. In numerous places, it’s a serious agrarian pest that causes considerable crop damage. Also, due to its large size, its slime and fecal material produce a nuisance as does the odour that occurs when commodity like bane bait causes large figures to die( Wikipedia, 19 may 2015).

1. Statement Of The Exploration Problems

Roasted crawler shells have been set up in Archaeological excavations and suggestion that draggers have been eaten since neolithic times. Roman crawler, was an ancient system of crawler husbandry or horticulture in the region about tanquinia. This crawler husbandry system was described by folvius lippinus( 49BC) and mentioned by marcuc Terentis varro in De Re Rustica III, 12.

There was an unprofitable attempt to establish it in Japan in 1925. It has been deliberately and accidentally transported to other pacific locales and was inadvently released in California after world war II, in Hawaii, and latterly in north maimi florida in the 1970s. also, due to its large size, its slime and fecal material produce a nuisance as does the odour that occurs when commodity like bane bait causes large figures to die. TheU.S has made considerable trouble to annihilate Achatina. TheU.S. department of Agriculture( USDA) has banned the importation and possession of live giant Africa draggers. still, they’re still sought after as faves due to the vibrant “ barracuda stripes on their shells.

numerous who are into crawler husbandry in Nigeria are also unintentional to let others know about the husbandry methodology. The ways are frequently shrouded in secretiveness. Nigeria profitable recovery and programmes have needed a radical shift from total dependent on government for jobs to tone employment in crawler parenting. It’s a great plutocrat- spinning business that can give a substantial source of protein to round Nigerian carbohydrate refections.

Crawler is an important source of protein, crawler also plays an important part in folk drug irrespective of crawler considerable high capabilities, original draggers product has failed to meet the country demand is for advanced than the force( kehinde 2004).

Considering the high prospect in the assiduity the provision of protein through draggers vacuity and creating employment for the directors and marketers, people are thus advised and encourage to go into crawler husbandry. Hence the question sounded to arise.

How profitable is the crawler product as a crawler and medium scale enterprise. What are the factors or constraints is removed so that crawler growers livelihood can be bettered which will turn as an enhancement on agrarian product of the nation.

1. Ideal Of The Study

Crawler husbandry isn’t a new conception. From thepre-historic age, human has been consuming crawler meat because of its high rate of protein, iron, low fat and including nearly all the amino acid which is demanded for mortal body. Crawler husbandry has numerous kinds of benefits in the recent times. Crawler husbandry adding day to day and turns into a large scale small voltage assiduity because of its real profitable value, for the purpose of this exploration work the following are the objects of the study

1. Examine the socio- profitable specific of crawler directors in UhunmwodeL. G. A in Edo state Nigeria

2. Identify the product system espoused by crawler growers in UhunmwodeL.G.A in Edo state, Nigeria.

3. To develop a flexible programme that links husbandry with assiduity and commerce.

4. Examine the determinant of profit accruing to crawler product in the area.

5. Determine the cost and returns to draggers product and determine it viability.

6. To develop mortal capacities for the commission of individualities and groups.

7. Identify the constraints of crawler product in the study area.

8. Compass And Limitation Of The Study

In an attempt to carry out this exploration work on the profitable analysis of crawler product in Uhunmwode original Government Area in Edo State, I’ve decided to know the extent at which crawler product or crawler husbandry will take over or suffer in the profitable aspect of Uhunmwode community.

Uhunmwode is a Original Government Area of Edo State, Nigeria. Its heads quarter is in the city of Ehor.

It has an area of 2,033; Km2 and a population of 120,813 at the 2006 tale( NIPOST, 2009).

With her population the community can be said to account t for a significant volume of ranch produce that come out of Uhunmwode Local Government Area.

Crawler husbandry in Uhunmwode community haven’t yet be taking edge in the product processes but with my exploration work carried out concerning crawler product in Uhunmwode community can pick up the crawler business and use it in developing their community internally,

Crawler is hermaphrodite beast and crawler is a good healthy proteinous food compare to other flesh. Crawler is veritably easy to rear compare to other creatures, it doesn’t suck , kick, sting or detriment and they do n’t mess up the terrain.

The reproductive organ in crawler are in both the manly and womanish, although two crawler have to copulate in order to fertilize their eggs, so this has show that the Uhunmwode community need not important profit to start up the business of crawler husbandry in the community.

As important, I the experimenter stopgap to gather information that will be useful for this exploration content and the below zone would represent the whole Edo State in Nigeria.

1. Description Of Terms/ Language

2. Economic Economics is the social wisdom that seeks to describe the factors which determine the product, distribution and consumption of goods and services.

3. Profitable Analysis this measures the social and profitable issues of an action.

4. What Is Snail Crawler is a hermaphrodites or a creeping beast.

5. Product it’s the metamorphosis of raw accoutrements into finished goods and the provision and distribution of goods and services in order to satisfy the final consumer.

6. Crawler Product This is the process of husbandry or raising draggers. Crawler product is also known as crawler husbandry.

7. Crawler Feed crawler feeds on a wide variety of cultivated and wild shops.( food & Agriculture Organization( style), 1989).
