Abstract

The research focused on describing the different market feasibility factors, as well as the environmental conditions for the establishment of a fish farm, semi-technified for the production of Oreochromis niloticus, in the municipality of El Sauce. The variables were studied: potential consumer market, supply and demand for consumption of Oreochromis niloticus, environmental conditions, for this purpose there is a supply of water from an artisanal well. For this study, 1,000 people participated, taking as inclusion criteria those who have preferences for the consumption of fish, heads of family and economically active. An acceptance of consumption of 89% was determined. Regarding the environmental technical feasibility; weather conditions such as temperature is 24 ° C recurrent in water bodies, constant water resources, PH in optimal ranges (6.5-7.5) for Oreochromis niloticus farming, dissolved oxygen of 4-7 mg/l and 86% saturation , in addition to well-marked climatic seasons and a favorable geographical position for the installation of a fish farm. Regarding supply and demand, a supply index of 89% was obtained and the market demand is equivalent to 1,840 pounds per month. Concluding that the acceptance rates for consumption and marketing are positive for the establishment of a fish farm, in addition, the environmental conditions are optimal for the development of the Oreochromis niloticus.
