Opemipo Oyebadejo, who’s a senior farmer and fish expert at Orisha Farms, aims to expand the cage-based farming of tilapia and catfish in Nigeria
 

I’ve been in the aquaculture industry for four years now. In 2018, I started my journey as an intern with SejFarms Ventures, which was during the penultimate year of my undergraduate studies. Then, in 2020, I started working part-time with Orisha Farms, which is where I now work full-time. I am a fish expert, senior farmer and co-founder of the cage culture production team. At Orisha Farms, we have over 30 workers. We run a cage culture system that has the nursery and grow-out phases. We also have a processing unit. Every year we produce 32 tonnes of tilapia and 36 tonnes of catfish. We sell 90 percent of our products fresh.
