Nijerya'da Gençlerin Karides Yetiştiriciliği Değer Zincirine Stratejik Katılımı

Bu çalışma yaşlı yetiştiricilerin yetiştiriciliği bırakma istekliliğini ve gençlerin karides değer zincirine dahil olmalarını araştırmaktadır. Birincil veriler, rastgele seçilen 120 karides yetiştiricisinden yapılandırılmış anket kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. Toplanan verileri analiz etmek için tanımlayıcı ve çıkarımsal istatistiksel araçlar kullanılmıştır. Demografik sonuç, işletmecilerin çoğunluğunun (% 82.50) kadın ve (% 52.50) ortaöğretim derecesine sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. Dahil olma oranında yaşlıların (% 70.83) gençlere (% 29.17) göre karides değer zincirine egemen olduğunu göstermektedir. Hipotez testlerinin sonucu, gençler tarafından gerçekleştirilen ortalama gelirin, yaşlıların gerçekleşen net gelirden önemli ölçüde daha yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Yaşlı yetiştiricilerin yaklaşık% 48'i, söz konusu ağır iş yükü nedeniyle gelecekte karides yetiştirciliğini bırakma istekliliğini belirtmiştir. Daha fazla katılımı teşvik etmek için gençlere hibe, kredi ve su ürünleri yetiştiriciliğine özel eğitim gibi teşvikler verilmelidir. Gençler, Nijerya'da karides endüstrisinin gelişimi için hükümet politikası ve programlarının önemli bir bileşenini oluşturmalıdır.

The Strategic Participation of Young People in Shrimp Farming Value Chain in Nigeria

This study investigates aged operators’ willingness to quit operations and youths’ inclusion in shrimp value chain. Primary data were obtained using structured questionnaire from randomly selected 120 shrimp operators. Descriptive and inferential statistical tools were used to analyze collected data. Demographic result suggests that majority (82.50%) of the operators were female and (52.50%) acquired secondary education. The finding shows that aged people (70.83%) dominated shrimp value chain with 29.17% inclusion rate for young actors. Result of hypothesis testing shows that the average income realized by youths is significantly higher than the net income realized aged. About 48% of the aged operators indicated willingness to quit shrimp harvesting in the future due to the drudgery involved. Incentives such as grants, loans and aquaculture – specific education should be given to the youth to encourage more participation. Youths should form important component of government policy and programmes for the development of shrimp industry in Nigeria.
