cultivating with rain is like gambling. sometimes we win and sometimes we lose. You alone can not manage 3 acres of tomato successively. Please first take time to learn from someone who has done it successfully so you don't throw that funds down the drain. bassman2017: |

Thank you for your prompt response. Please is your one month training still available? I would have preferred a two weeks practical training because I currently work full time with an organisation and I can only take a fews days leave in a year. This is my constraint. Thank you. jethro2: |

Green House Farming A greenhouse is a structure with walls and roof made chiefly of transparent materials, such as nets, plastics or glass, in which environmental conditions are regulated for cultivated crops (such as tomato, bell pepper, chilli pepper, cucumber, watermelon, leafy vegetables etc.). Amongst several other advantages, greenhouse farming affords you the opportunity to grow all year round with good regulation of inputs and environmental factors which result in very high yields of international quality. Sedfort Farms, Sedfort Nigeria Limited is a modern agribusiness company with interests in crop and animal production; and agricultural technology. We presently have one of the largest operating greenhouse farms in Nigeria with a total greenhouse area space of 50,000sqm (5 Hectares). Having been in the vegetable business for years now, and being a sub-regional leader in hydroponics, Sedfort prides itself in its ability to produce large volumes of premium farm fresh tomatoes in Nigeria. Sedfort Ingenious Agriculture as the sole representative of Novedades Agricolas S.A. Spain is proud to introduce the APRKit 336 Greenhouse. The APRKit 336 is a greenhouse solution for new and professional growers that has been adapted to suit our environmental parameters providing farmers with improved conditions for the cultivation of various greenhouse crops. We can supply and install the Kit for you anywhere in Nigeria.

I am very much interested in hydroponics myself, but the issues facing this type of system in the country is one of the reason i have not started mine. So i have being studying the art of hydroponics for years now and i have being able to find solutions to many of the challenges. eg. TEMPERATURE ISSUES (i can now build a low energy evaporative cooling system and gio-cooling system for green house) NUTRIENT ISSUES (i have a tested hydroponic nutrient formula, and still testing it on tomato and leafy greens, also have have a technique to maintain a constant nutrient temperature all year round) GREENHOUSE ISSUES (I can now build a greenhouse out of wood and PVC pipes now) and so many other improvements i have made. what works abroad can also work here, we just need to study and upgrade it to meet our needs. i Am NaijaPonics (we solve hydroponics and greenhouse challenges) call:- 08083737488; 08161243580 these are my opinion and i know they are right tundebabzy: |

We learn from mistakes and should also be able to share our experiences and successes. Has anyone tried his hands on the use of Epsom salt on tomato and pepper? If not, this is a salt that contains magnesium and sulphur which provides green leaves, disease resistance and healthy fruits of tomato and pepper. The salt should be applied after transplanting, during flowering and fruiting. For further enquiry, kindly contact me on 08056945865. |

Hi Jethro, nice work. Is your training for general farm managers or strictly for tomato farmers For those of us who might want to sponsor a trainee with the intention of hiring them, do you have any training course on how to manage the farm managers. |
