Good day,
This morning, I had to go to my husband's land where he stored the Hide n skin in other for everyone to understand my explanation with pictures. The hide n Skin is being sold according to the weight and not the size. Its the weight that determines how much it will be when it goes through the process of cooking... One light one is N6000 and the heavy one is N7000. There are also smaller ones (in bits), as in ori malu (cow head) that starts from 400 naira to 500naira. I have some samples in my office in lagos.

Picture 1--------------This hide n skin I'm carrying is N6000 for one
Picture 2--------------This hide n skin I'm carrying is N7000 for one
Picture 3--------------Lol, my lil girl n I. We run the business together
Picture 4--------------Ori malu (cow head) starting from 400 naira to 500 naira.

Good day Friends,
I'm really sorry for the late response here, whatsapp, bbm, facebook and mails. This weekend was really a busy one for me.
We are approaching the onion scarcity season so I worked all day in my onions storage farm. More storage units/rooms was built over the weekend as the demand for storage increases. I promise to attend to everyone by Gods grace.

@ the 4th picture, I was so tired


Coming soon, The biggest Groundnut Farm and Market in Nigeria.
Stay tuned!

GROUNDNUT also known as PEANUT

Picture 1-----checking the groundnut
Picture 2,3,4----- That's the field where the groundnuts are peeled.

In the pictures, you can see some machines. It's the peanut shelling and separating machine. They either use the machine to remove the peanut from the shaft or do it manually.

The hand peel is more expensive than the machine peel.


MACHINE PEEL

1 Bag 100kg-----------25,000
Labour, Sac and Transportation-------2000

TOTAL----------N27,000


HAND PEEL

1 Bag 100kg---------- 28,000
