Agriculture is the way out of the hunger we are in as a country. The Nigerian government should try and do more on that aspect. |

emmaodet:I am not saying it is bad. I asked why so much spacing considering you can harvest even more if you reduced the spacing between plants. You can look into it for the next time you plant maize. 1 Like 1 Share

Op, good job. I see that your farm manager have experience in farming, that is why you are having good results. This crops you planted will be mature in three or four months time that is good money for you. Also try to plant cassava on that mazzi farm after you have remove it . There is money in cassava now. I wish all the best in your farming. Am good at farming but am not doing large farming, farming is money if you have the money to do it. Farm no easy oooo!!! |
Re: My Maize, Pepper And Tomatoes Farm by joeking2222: 3:46pm On Jun 12, 2023 |
Kobojunkie:Egbon, on the norms the spacing used in maize planting is always 75cm by 50cm or 75cm by 25cm for higher yield!!! So, that spacing no too much brov. |

BabaCommander:Lolss.......egbon, u dey mix up the function of the two sir. UREA contains majorly NITROGEN which is about 49% if i am not mistaken. And we all know the major function of NITROGEN which is to enhance or promote green leafy growth, and as well make the plants look lush(Attractive). While NPK on the other hand contains 3 major components which are NITROGEN: Helping plants to grow green leaves, PHOSPHORUS: Helps to produce healthy flowers, buds, roots, and fruits and POTASSIUM: Which is used by plants to help sustain overall plant health. |

I am happy for you. It's posts like this that we prefer on this forum. Better than guys asking rhetorical questions like "Guys, do you sleep with one or both eyes closed," "Ladies, would you marry a man whose mom is still alive?" I presume the tomato bed in the picture is for the seedlings only. If that is your actual growing bed, I would say the plants are heavily congested. 1 Like

AJCs: Tbh, I will say I was lucky to get the farm workers at 300k per year. Most Cotonou guys want Bajaj bike at the end of the year which is around 550k/600k and too much for most farmers. This boys cited naira devaluation as reason for the rising cost in workers. Normally, a bike is what they collect at the end of the year. It started when bike was around 250k, then with time as naira devalues, it became 300k, 350k, 400k etc till 550/600k now and most farmers says No more. They can't cope and I see this as a major headache for most southern farmers in future. The northern farmers don't have this issue. They have a large cheap labours and alimanjeris they use for farming cheaply and likewise the use of cow for doing ploughing compared to a southern farmer that will use tractor. Farm clearing here is 17k per acre and 20k per acre for ridging compared to north were the price may be less than half off that. Reason why their maize, tomatoes etc will always be cheaper than ours here 4 Likes |
