The year was 2010, the month of June. John was given a plot of land at the cheapest price he could ever imagine as at that moment, most especially, relative to prevailing cost he was used to as a city dweller.
john was only at the village for the one year mandatory service period to serve his father land (NYSC).
After so much consideration, rumination and consultation on what the land could be used for, It was quite unfortunate he saw no reasonable use the land could be put into as he knew he had a very short time to spent in the village and even erecting a residential apartment was totally out of the story as he wouldn't even imagine staying back for even a single day in the village after passing out.
Few days to the completion of the service year, John was advised by his host at the village to at least find a way to secure the land even if it means just putting in some tree stems (asexual propagation) which would later grow to be trees and therefore allow for easy recognition of the piece of land in the nearest future and also for protection from trespassers. John heeded to this advice as there wasn't even any other alternative action route he would have taken even if he was to reject the one given by his host.
Lo and behold, John left the village at the completion of his service year with little or no hope and plan of ever visiting the village again whether in the shortest or longest of time.

THE ACCIDENTAL INVESTMENT (continuation)

On the last day of January, 2021 at almost eleven years after John left the village without even looking back for once, something surprising and interesting happened.
John saw a call from an unknown number and upon inquiries discovered the caller to be his host back in the village then while he was serving. He had actually lost the contact due to phone changes and a lot of other factors, but the man still has his, possibly because he knew a day like that will definitely come.
The man called to inform him on how some wood workers and loggers alike had approached him to negotiate purchasing the trees he had planted on his parcel of land for protection and securing from trespassers that year before leaving the village.
Upon hearing the negotiation cost, John was dazzled as to the amount, he never in his widest dreams imagined trees could worth such not to talk of it being a profitable and an enviable investment. Almost immediately, he started wishing he had planted more that the few he did as at when he was to leave the village, maybe he would just have suddenly become a multimillionaire overnight even from where and what he least expected. Notwithstanding, what he was being offered could not be anyway underemphasized as it outweighs whatever home take he has ever received from his job since he started working.
Fortunately for John also, the rate of development in the village is on the high side and that is will be a plus for him on the worth and value of his land with the shortest period of time.
John got himself involved in Gmelina plantation accidentally, even though he never had any prior information as to the worth, importance and maturity period of the tree. He therefore came up with the conclusion that THE BEST TIME TO ACTUALLY PLANT A TREE WAS TEN YEARS AGO AND THE BETTER TIME IS NOW!
That farmland and family land you have left to fallow for long can actually be put to a better use with the least risk involved and at the same time getting secured from trespassers alike.

As time goes by, we will be revealing the gold-mine that lies beneath Tree plantation (gmelina and teak in this case). This will be achieved by giving comprehensive and pragmatic details of prevailing selling prices and current revenues that could be generated from trees and tree processing.

MONEY DOES ACTUALLY GROW ON TREES
This is not to fault that age long idiom-‘money doesn’t grow on trees’, rather it is aimed at exposing the actual secret of attaining the status of ‘nouveau riche’ through tree plantation (investment) and also being an environmental protector as the investment also caters for the purpose of salvaging the environment from the adverse effects of deforestation and environmental degradation at large.
The abundant wealth opportunities and high profitable investment potential that lies in investment in economic trees can never be over emphasized. Gone are the days of waiting 30/40 years just to get reasonable harvest in woods.
Two major hard woods that falls in this category of early maturity and harvest are Gmelina tree (Gmelina arborea) and Teak tree (Tectonia grandis).
Incidentally, we specialize in the PROPAGATION, NURSERY MANAGEMENT and ESTABLISHMENT of these trees both at the level of SEEDLINGS SALE and PLANTATION ESTABLISHMENT.
Tree planting investment is a win-win case to whoever engages in it for the following inclusive and yet limitless advantages.
• Suitable for absentee farmers who are interested in agro-related enterprise
• High ratio of return on investment to production cost
• Landed properties’ salvage and protection from grabbers, encroachers and trespassers alike
• Environmental protection advocacy and agent
• Good legacy for coming generation. etc

Woods are fast becoming scarce and expensive
Do not give up your dream of planting those economic trees
Not only will they be suitable for your land preservation and security
They grow sooner and mature faster than you would ever imagine
Also, you would have contributed your quota in mitigating the adverse effects of deforestation on our ecosystem.
@treenitiative, we specialise in Propagation, Nurturing, Sale and Plantation establishment of Gmelina (Gmelina arborea) and Teak (Tectona grandis).
