Mechanization my behind, like that same mechanization is so clandestine that it is unavailable to local farmers. The same resources and mechanization available to the white farmers are available to local farmers, but first, many locals don't want to farm, for they think farming is not profitable. Second, even if the locals decide to farm, many local farmers have a get rich quick mentality and a lazy attitude rather than being patient. Mental laziness is another factor.

my dear prince

i am just frozen at your inflexibly misguided response! hw can u improve agriculture wtout mechanization? hw much of agricultural mechanization is practiced by majority of our farmers? r u even aware of d major challenges of agriculture in nigeria at all? do u know y obasanjo and yar'adua pushed so much for a new land reform law until d yar'adua's recent death? do u know of any successful agriculture economy dt is still crude as ours? do u even know dt only abt 3 per cent of US population r farmers, yet they r agricultural giants? wld u say dts because dey r peasant farmers? do u know hw extensively mechanized has agriculture gone in france, israel, britain, india, canada, brazil and every advanced economy? do u knw d effect of activ and effectiv mechanized agric on a nation's economy? hav u ever travelled out of your southern (most probably south eastern whc incidentally i am also from) comfort zone to c how more involvd other people r with in agriculture? do u think d vast norther expanse of land is fallow? which of d north-south divide do u thnk feeds d other? do u know d major occupation of northern youths (north includin mid-belt)? hw much do u thnk u knw abt d nigerian agricultural system holistically? did u say mechanizzation is available to our local farmers? do u know what farm mechanization entails? do u knw y the locals thnk farmin is unprofitable? will u say d same 'unprofitable' farming built our early and glorious national infastructures? hw well do u knw wht makes your very neighbour tick b4 u 'rushd' to call him lazy? can u pls define mental laziness as u used it? r your answers to these questions based on firsthand comprehensive knowledge or coloured report by some poorly informed fellow? r your answers sentimental or truly unbiased fact based?

my broda, i await your response b4 i talk more

Well said my man!
