Agriculture / Re: Farmers Complain That After A Few Harvests,Plantains Don’t Do Well,Solution Here by Ken4agent(m): 4:01pm On Nov 25, 2020
Checking for your farm soil fertility is the first step to take before investing on this farm land. It is also the first step to take if you want your farm crop production to be sustainable.

If you plan cultivating that farm land commercially next yr, it will be a good decision to check for the soil fertility before next season.

Benefits of knowing your soil fertility
1. You will know what nutrient is lacking
2. Qty of fertilizer to apply to attain critical level, type of fertilizer to apply and what method to adopt
3. You know if the nutrient available will be released to the crop for uptake or the nutrient are available but trap
4. You know what type of crop is suitable for your farm
5. You will know whether or not your farm soil has sufficient organic mater
6. You will be able to predict yield
6. You will be able to know your soil PH and where the PH does not support the crop you want to plant, then we would be able to recommend amelioration
7. You will be able to know whether your farm soil is homogeneous or heterogeneous in nature at the top soil and down the profile

Kenfarm can keep listing the benefit as the benefit are so numerous

Are you aware that one of the numerous functions of micro nutrient in your soil is to catalyzes the enzymatic reactions which indirectly leads to food production in plant and subsequently leads to plant growth.

So if your farm crop is experiencing stunted growth, then it simply means one of the parameters amongst others you need to check is the LEVEL OF MICRO NUTRIENT in your farm soil

This is the reason scientifically checking for your farm soil fertility is paramount.

MULCHING
It is a farming practice which involve shielding the base of the primary crop to totally prevent sunlight from getting in contact with weed around the base of the primary crop. When the weed can not get sunlight which is the catalyst of photosynthesis (feeding mechanism of plant), the weed will never grow up. Thus, the base of the primary crop will be weed free.
This practice of preventing the weed from growing around the base of the primary crop have the following advantages:
1. It prevent competition for available nutrient. When competition for nutrient between the primary crop and weed is eliminated, then the growth rate of the primary crop will increase remarkably and yeild will also improve.
2. It makes the base of the primary crop to be moist at all time. When the base is moist, exchange of gas increase thereby increasing macro and micro nutrient movement.
3. It indirectly increase the organic matter of the soil
Kenfarm embarked on an experiment to test for the effectiveness of using bags to cover the base of the primary crop as method of mulching

Experiment:
kenfarm apply bags of poultry manure on the farm in May, 2020. After application, I instructed my staff to tear open the base of the bag. After which they wear the bag from the top resting on the base. Son that the entire base is covered with the bag.

Control experiment:
200 suckers were cover with the bag at the base while 200 suckers were not covered. So after covering the 200suckers base, we then apply herbicide on the whole of the 400suckers.

Observation:
After 2months after, ken farm visited the farm to check for the growth of weed. It was observed that the suckers that are not covered with bags at the base had planting of weed while the suckers that are covers at the base had zero weed ( no weed).

Result:
After 4month September, 2020), kenfarm visited to assess the growth rate of both the experimental crop and the control crop
1. As seen in the picture, the experimental crop which is the suckers covered at the base with bags was noticed to have a very speedy growth and look very healthy
2. The control crop which is the suckers that were left uncovered was observed to have plenty of weed to contend with for nutrient. Thus, they look distressed and appear to have slow growth rate.
Conclusion: using of bags to cover the base of the primary crop is an effective method of controlling weed also known as mulching.

One area that can be more challenging in plantain fatming is getting market for your fruit. After you have invested material resource and human resources on that farm land, harvest time is the time to know whether you recover your input or lose everything to buyer who will take advantage of you.

If you spend the whole year caring for your plantain plantation and forget the fact that creating your market start from the day you transplanted the suckers, then you have yursrlf to blame.

The implication is that your fruit will all produce good yield but you be shock to know that the only available buyer are the bolly sellers who will offer to come buy at farm gate and pay you #200 per bunch ( e shock yu?)

Or bad enough you pay for harvesting the fruit, pay labour to bring them out of farm and pay transport to take it to the market then you settle down to sell and the whole sellers at the market will be pricing a bunch for #300 or max #400

They will even tell you they are doing you a favour by buying it off from you. Then you tell yourself, these stuff are perishable. The more they stay, the more they lose market value.

Sadly you eventually sell them off and return home sad.

Make no such mistakes. The benefit if involving professional in the business is to guard you through a whole planting cycle. I mean to say you need the services of professional like kenfarm who will not only sell viable suckers to you. We sell suckers to our esteem client and continue to give them follow up from pre- planting to planting to post planting.

We would give you some clues as to how to recover your investment withing a period if time and we also give you clues as to how to make your plantation sustainable.

For you to accomplish your plan and retrieve your investment, 3 key factors must be played well

1. You must plant a viable sucker

2. Your farm soil must be fertile

3. The management of the plantation must be man by an experienced farmer

If any of these factors is faulty, I can assure you frustration will surely set in and you will definitely lose your investment if you do not quickly seek for intervention from experience farmers like kenfarm

Downloading info from Google can never be enough to manage farm. Watching video on you tube can never be a good way to gain skill needed to manage your plantation.

Y?
Because which ever way you manage your plantation depends on

1. The out come of your soil fertility

2. The geographical location if your farm

3. The biological factors and enviromental factor peculiar to your farm

4. The availability of labour

I can go on and on

The bottom line is that those info you get online may not be applicable to your farm due to the factors listed above. Every farm is unique.

For consultation, contact kenfarm on 08038623884

This is the appropriate time to run a soil analysis on that farm land you intend to cultivate next year. The cost is never equal to the risk of cultivating a deforestation land

Make a wise choice today!!

A soil’s ability to react with positively charged molecules is called it’s cation exchange capacity (CEC). The higher the CEC, the higher the negative charge of the soil and the more cations that can be held.
The most common soil cations are: calcium, magnesium, potassium, ammonium, hydrogen and sodium.

Generally soils with more clay silt and organic matter have a higher CEC and the CEC decreases with increased sand content.
The most basic thing to remember is CEC indicates how well your soil will hold onto anything, including nutrients and water.

Below are some practical implications of your soil’s Cation Exchange Capacity:

Low CEC soils need quick but frequent watering, while high CEC soils need slow water applied less often.

When applying fertilizers and soil conditioners to low CEC soil, it is best to apply a little at a time to avoid the risk of leaching them through the soil and into ground water.

When applying nutrients to high CEC soils it is best to incorporate them, if they are placed on the surface they are more prone to run-off due to the slow infiltration rate.

The lower the CEC of a soil, the faster the soil pH will decrease with time.
Soils with a low CEC are more likely to develop deficiencies in calcium, potassium & magnesium.

Because they are resistant to leaching, high-CEC soils generally do not need to be limed as frequently as low-CEC soils; but when they do become acid and require liming, higher lime rates are needed to reach optimum pH.


It only a reliable soil fertility testing that can reveal the CEC value of your farm soil. The implication of this is that to make a concise and logical decision on your farm crop/soil management, you need to have adequate knowledge of the farm soil fertility
