Cocoboms:Nope.. Just fresh consumption... One of the reason people like me don't eat pawpaw enough is cos I'm not sure of the sweetness of the pawpaw I'm going to buy next My land is 45 mins from owerri 45 min from aba Just over one hour from umuahia Less than 2 hours from port Harcourt 2 hours 30 minutes from bayelsa Just over 3 hours from enugu... So we plan to sale to this six cities... Once the sellers are guaranteed of the sweetness of our pawpaw they would look for us We are also getting trucks to move it around It's a risk I'm willing to take... Embarking 10 million for the project... So I'm ready.... Worst case I lose all my money Thanks for your concern though 3 Likes |

mrvitalis: I love the strategy...but why not start considerably smaller and still supply these six cities. Then when you see d volume isn't enough to fill these markets, you scale up. 20 hectares is like 40,000 papaya trees oo. To even do custom drip irrigation on 2 hectares is not cheap. 1 Like |

mrvitalis:Go for the Red royale from east west. You need to get a feasibility study before you embark on that project. The Vega f1 is good but fruit size is small. The red royale will be a better option. Why not divide the hectares into two tree crop? If you want this, i advise you for the momax3 moringa. You could be plugging cash in months. 3 Likes 1 Share |

EMMAACHILE: Do the east west seed agents in Nigeria still stock Red royal f1? I thought they discontinued it cos of its anthracnose susceptibility. |
Re: ... by mrvitalis(m): 3:50pm On Dec 18, 2018 |
EMMAACHILE:Let's talk more about this boss... Can I have your contact |
Re: ... by Nobody: 8:41pm On Dec 18, 2018 |
Cocoboms:Yes. They have new seeds now but I won't know whether its improved over the former scarce one. Its now sold in seeds of 500. The irony is that this Vega f1 seem to have some dry leaf problem that looks like anthracnose susceptibility which is more of a rainy season than a dry season problem. I will post pictures tomorrow and will inquire from east west rep in Nigeria about this problem you mentioned. 1 Like |
Re: ... by Cocoboms(m): 8:49pm On Dec 18, 2018 |
EMMAACHILE: Anthracnose is truly more of a rainy season problem. I think it affects d fruits more in red royale f1. But red royale is excellent for its taste, height of plant and size of fruit. I'll love to grow it commercially. Any idea how much the 500 seeds are sold now? |
Re: ... by manya(m): 1:52pm On Dec 20, 2018 |
Cocoboms:N15000 per pack of 500 seeds, minus transport. |

EMMAACHILE:What Moringa is that? How can one get it sir? |
Re: ... by Nobody: 9:16pm On Dec 20, 2018 |
manya:Available from $900 for 1kg seeds. Thats the moq (minimum order quantity from India) |
Re: ... by olushollys(m): 10:39pm On Dec 20, 2018 |
EMMAACHILE:Oga emma this is irsesistably tempting. Please tell me more. To start with an acre how much seed do I need, the expected yeild and time of maturity. Would seriously appreciate your kind response. Thanks |
Re: ... by Nobody: 5:00am On Dec 21, 2018 |
olushollys: 1kg is approximately 3000-3200 seeds 1 hectare is about 1600 seeds (assuming 100 seeds dont germinate) approx 1700 seeds 1 acre will be 1700/2.5 = 680 seeds There is an order of 1000 seeds at $515 to Nigeria. The only thing holding some of us back in farming is the in-decision of staying in Nigeria or porting out later. ![]() 1 Like |

EMMAACHILE:what is the maturity time? |
Re: ... by Nobody: 10:15pm On Dec 21, 2018 |
pat077:4 months for fruiting and 6 months for full harvesting. It yields twice a year Expected yield for first year is about 2000 kg seeds per hectare or about 1.3kg seed per tree |
Re: ... by pat077: 8:52am On Dec 23, 2018 |
EMMAACHILE:is the 2000kg for one harvest or for the whole year? |
Re: ... by Nobody: 9:27am On Dec 23, 2018 |
pat077:Yes for the whole year (twice combined) but expected yield to grow to 4000kg second year, 5000-7000kg third year |
Re: ... by uboma(m): 6:17pm On Dec 25, 2018 |
EMMAACHILE: You are right. The roots of a Pawpaw plant/tree do not really go deep down the soil. They are usually very weak. |
Re: ... by olushollys(m): 2:42pm On Dec 27, 2018 |
EMMAACHILE:.....and what about the market and profitability ![]() Do we have ready buyers here in Nigeria or where? |
Re: ... by Nobody: 6:08pm On Dec 27, 2018 |
olushollys:Buyers are everywhere especially if you sell the seeds. |

Nice thread |
Re: ... by Nobody: 5:03pm On Jan 27, 2019 |
I am about to order for the momax3 moringa seeds. Anyone interested in small quantity of a minimum 200 seeds should contact me. |
Re: ... by manya(m): 7:37pm On Feb 05, 2019 |
EMMAACHILE:I need it please. |
Re: ... by kodred(m): 12:25pm On Feb 08, 2019 |
EMMAACHILE: When selling, How much is it per kg sir? |
Re: ... by Nobody: 12:59pm On Feb 08, 2019 |
kodred:Price range from 1200-2500 per kg |
Re: ... by kodred(m): 1:15pm On Feb 08, 2019 |
EMMAACHILE: Naira? |
Re: ... by Nobody: 3:59pm On Feb 08, 2019 |
kodred:Naira but if I do the farm I will likely not sell the seeds but the refined oil. I saw a Chinese oil machine that can mill it to international standard for about 1.2m in Abuja. |
