This is officially introducing the CONFAS (CORN FARMING SEASON) 2019 PROJECT to you

A Brief History

3 years ago we were kind of wondering we farmers don't like planting corn yet you hear people shouting there is so much money in corn farming. So we decided to enter into it. Well let's just say that story didn't end well for us

2 years ago, we went back to the drawing board re-strategised and came back to plant the maize again and this time we sold fresh and the result was encouraging

Last year we took our time and experimented on different plant spacing,fertilizer application, time of planting as well as hybrid seeds and marketing

And the results

Outstanding!!! Oh and we sold fresh because that's were the money is.

Since our last disaster some years back with cassava, we had promised not to introduce any new cropping season without testing the market for both the good the bad and the ugly side of the market

Hence, we are proud to say without doubt that there is big money in corn farming selling it fresh
Now to Business
We will be giving the potential farmer the option of choosing between planting the highly improved hybrid seeds or the local Seed


Run down of the cost of cultivating 1 acre(6 plots) of corn

Land lease 10000
1st and 2nd plough 15000
Mild cutting 5000
*Import Hybrid seeds 17000
*** hybrid seeds. 6000
Planting. 6000
Fertilizer + transportation + application
@ 12000 per bag x 3 bags 36000
Spraying + post emergence herbicide 5000


Total cost plus import hybrid seeds 94000
Total cost plus local hybrid seeds 83000
Optional (*** local hybrid). (* imported hybrid)

Now to the Return on Investment
1 acre will accommodate 20,000 stands of corn
Let's give 3000 stands to defects and failure and you are left with 17000

Going by the minimum accepted price for profit
A fresh mature maize sells for a minimum of #8 per cob at farm gate
#8 x 17000 cobs of maize = #136000
#136000 - #88,000 = #48,000 or 35% of your investment after 3 months
