How to Start Fish Farming

My parents bought a Fish Pond property in Pampanga years back but just had the farm rented for 10 years. This year, 2012, my parents ended the contract for the pond and now it is just there, unutilized.

I am on the look out for great business opportunities for this property and I need help! My parents and relatives were not that risky and most are in the corporate world or are employees so they do not want to explore business and farming. I have a little budget to work around with.

Our property is a 7-hectare land which was dug out into one whole pond. It is big and wide as a river and was used before for tilapia culture. Source of water will be from the irrigation and it is surrounded with other ponds and rice fields.

If you can share your ideas and somehow help me find financial/developmental support to do this venture, please let me know. I am looking at Hito, Pangacius or Tilapia farming.

Thanks!
