Background

In the absence of steady electricity supply in Nigeria, local fish farmers in Uyo resort to diesel-powered generators to power their water pumping machines, which increases the cost of business. However, two fish farmers in Uyo are using solar power for water pumping, providing them a steady water supply to supply to continue fishing in their ponds. These efforts have resulted in harvest increasing and farming cost diminishing.
