Re: Maize Farmers Only by MDDarah84(m): 4:18pm On Mar 22, 2021 |
adejoke2600: Why the two? If you are treating your maize against army worm, apply Caterpillar force mildly and you are good to go.You can apply anytime you notice the infestation 1 Like |

adejoke2600: The size and location of your farm may help shelding more light. If u are producing in large scale, say above 2 acre, it's better to dry(using dryer since ur harvest wl fall in the midst of raining season), shell and bag(100kg) for sale. For a smaller farm, u can just harvest dry, bag unshelled and move them to ur local markets for sale, U need to locate those that buy. Not all markets buy unshelled maize, dry corn harvested during raining season are not good for storage. To avoid the stress and cost that go with using a drying machine, plant late maize by Aug/early Sept. If you are doing mono cropping, you can still plant late maize on that same land. 2 Likes |

Hello, I planted maize on 2/ha, on April 21, and apply paraquat+ atrazine which work well, sadly Iost the maize farm due to a long break in rainfall. Now I've ploughed, and planning to repeat planting soon. Do I need to apply pre emergency herbicides again? Because some of the maize that fail to germinate during the rain break are coming up, now that rain has commenced, and don't want to lose them. Please kindly advise me. |
Re: Maize Farmers Only by Timmylehyn(m): 11:13pm On May 26, 2021 |
luap1990: Yes, use the pre-emergence herbicide again. Replant as you intend to. Don't count on the new maize sprouting as they may not do very well commercially. Regards. 1 Like |

This parcel of land is not for sale, it is for farming maize. Trespassers beware, there's gun and ogun |
Re: Maize Farmers Only by OluchiDelly: 8:21pm On Jun 20, 2021 |
noeloge82:My thought also. Road side sellers/hawkers here are selling @N50 per one, they will still buy charcoal/firewood for processing it. I wonder how those that will retail from her will make profit except they retail @N100. 1 Like |
