I have doubts on the number of fatalities,
Our neighbours ghana with close to 13,000 cases recorded only 66 deaths while we're counting close to 500 deaths with 17,700 cases?
Something is wrong somewhere but time shall tell!

There is nothing wrong with the death figures. It simply shows that we are not taking adequate care of those with the illness.

I doubt if the total number of ventilators in the country is up to 500, with 11,000 active cases, the sick are simply left to their own immunity to save them.

One of our co-workers died from COVID 19 two days ago. He was 45 years old, the disease and deaths are real.

What you said is not equal to spoilage! Cassava do not start spoiling until harvest!

dis pikin, take your time.

If you want to learn, then bring school fees, I will teach you.

I will give you free lesson today.

Cassava roots rot when left too long in the soil after maturity, reducing the overall yield.
Cassava mobilizes starch from the tubers after maturity this causes the starch content and hence the yield to drop. This also causes the tubers to be fibrous. Some cassava processing firms will reject the cassava if the starch content drops below certain percentage.
The quality of garri made from excessively mature cassava is not as good as that made from cassava that is 12-15 months old. The Density of the garri is less and is more tricky to prepare with hot water.

If left long enough, the cassava tuber gets impregnated with cellulose, making that part of the tuber to be of no value in processing.
Leaving matured cassava in the field for too long is also invitation for more damage from wild animals

Cutehector:
can you please give an example of a gas cooker that has this safety feature?

All the major burner brands have it in their cookers that have up to four burners. Though burners with it cost a little more than those without it.

All European burner brands that i have checked have it in some of their designs.
Ignis burner have it, even some chinese made table top burners have it. You just have to look at for it. Search for the two probes in each burner, one for the igniter and the other for the safety switch for gas cut off.

The cylinder to hose connection used in Nigeria is poorly designed. If you can get a cylinder that has a threaded connection for the hose, then use that. It will ensure that chances of leakage from the cylinder connection is reduced.

The other key issue is the safety system built into the gas burner. The burner should be able to automatically turn off the gas supply to the burner if the flame goes off for any reason. At times when cooking, when boiling liquid splash from the pot into the flame, the flame can go out. If the burner does not have a sensor that than detect that the flame has gone out and cut off the gas supply, you will end up with a kitchen filled with unignited cooking gas, which is a recipe for disaster.

You can easily tell if a burner has this safety feature by looking for the thermocouple probe in the burner head, it is like a pointed needle similar to the electrostatic igniter probe but unlike the igniter probe, it does not have a white ceramic insulator around it.

Fit a propane sensor in your kitchen. If there is a gas leak in the kitchen, the alarm signal from the sensor will alert you.

You sound like one of the internet farmers. If a factory is not within 10 km radius of his farm, not only will his logistics cost make any profits he will make of no consequence, he risks the cassava load getting spoilt if the truck or vehicle breaks down on our bad roads. Have you ever taken a trip to a farm on a real bad road? I have been there. Trust me: it is not something you want to even try.

Thank God he has already answered the question by posting his road transport experience with his cassava.

I will overlook your comment on internet farmer this time.

From the OP writeup he has calculated the logistic cost to the factory. by his calculation, he will spend 250,000 naira to harvest and transport 30 tons of cassava to the factory and he will sell at 450,000 naira for the 30 tons which will give him a balance of 200,000 naira per 30 ton trip.

I assume that by his writeup, the cassava is already 18 months old, from 12 months the starch content of the cassava starts to drop.

The OP said he has sold cassava at 80,000 naira per ton previously?
Have you seen anybody who sold fresh cassava at even 50,000 naira per ton before?
Maybe he was hoping to sell to a government company that runs on subvention from the govt.

MDDarah84:


50 acres will yield an average of 500 tonnes.Processing this to garri will be around 125 tonnes.

For a factory of 2 tonnes/day capacity,you could process this within 3 months.

I combine garri with elubo production in my factory,I could do this within 2 months.
You may use the same strategy

You already have the factory, the workers and the experience to turn cassava into the garri and elubo, the OP does not have the factory setup yet, his cassava is overdue for harvest. Do you think he really have the time now for factory setup and going through the learning curve of cassava processing?

The best option for him is to sell the cassava to the factory or move it to an existing factory for processing into finish product. If he wanted to process cassava he should have had his factory built long before the cassava was ready for harvest and should have been doing some form of processing before now.

In some situations, half bread is better than none.

mfm04622:

Cassava doesn't spoil if not harvested! There was a time prices of all foodstuff went up in the country, attracting many farmers/investors. Leading to overproduction which led to present low prices of foods in the country.


Cassava doesn't spoil if not harvested? have you planted cassava before?

Go and grow cassava and leave it for 2 years before harvest and come back to tell us the yield you will get on a dry weight basis and compare it to the yield others will get if they harvest within 12-15 months.
Properties / Re: Misconception About 10kva Inverter Package by ogb5(m): 4:36am On Sep 14, 2019
renewable1:
Solar power system is becoming popular in this part of the world. Many Nigerians are now accepting this technology because of information and sensitization.

Today I'll like to speak briefly about a 10kva system. We have a 10kva system with complete 2.5kw solar modules for One million three hundred and sixty five thousand naira only. This price was too good to be true to so many persons that have idea about solar power system. A prospective clients contacted me and said Bro my friend said this 10kva package is a scam because if the price, and I laughed out loud.

People would always criticize what they don't understand especially in Nigeria. I told him yeah, your friend may be right in a way but he's not updated with the industry. So I educated him about the 10kva system and what made the price that cheap.

Over the years, most inverter companies such as luminous, sukam, genus, mpower, and many others only produces 10kva inverter that can only be driven by 8 ,12 and 15 batteries. And to charge this number of batteries via solar you'll need huge numbers of solar panels, hence the price is always very expensive. To install a 10kva/180v system meaning you'll need 15 pieces of 200AH batteries and for effective charging you'll require at least 30 pieces of 300w solar panels and a 180v MPPT solar charge controller among other accessories, before you know what's happening you've spent close to 4.5M naira.. You see, that's huge.

But here we are today, technology has taken a new leaf, we are improving on a daily basis, companies now came up with new 10kva/48v system ( each battery is 12v, so for a 48v inverter you'll need 4 pieces of 12v batteries I.e 4×12=48v ).
You see the entire cost for running this new 10kva/48v system is less because it requires minimum of 4 batteries. And if I'm to use 4 pieces of 200AH batteries I might decide to use 10 pieces of 250/300w solar panels for effective charging of my battery bank.. Hence, total cost of installation should be within 1.4M and 1.5M as against the 10kva/180v system of 4.5M.

I hope this explanation helps, so when you see a 10kva/48v solar package for 1.5M for instance you won't say it's a scam.. It's real my people

If you're interested in this 10kva system with 2.5kw solar array kindly send us a dm via watsapp on the link below.

Using 4 batteries with a 10kva inverter does not make sense to me. The battery capacity will be too low and it will drain off within a short time on the heavy load that the 10kva inverter can power.

Agriculture / Re: Cassava Cultivation. After 18 Months Of Waiting, Still No Clear Path. by ogb5(m): 4:05am On Sep 14, 2019
agbajesaid:
After Cultivating over 100 Acres of Cassava, selling it has been very difficult.

We didn't just find ourself in the mess, we planted based on Companies promise to pick it up when it's ready for harvest.

We planted at a time when a Tonne of Cassava sells for #70,000 and a Congo of Gaari sells for #500.

Fast forward to harvest time, the price has crashed. One (1)Tonne sells for as low as #15,000 and a Congo of Gaari sells for #100.

Companies refused to come down to pick it because they have farmers begging to supply them at their factory.

I tried supplying two different companies, I realized that the money spent in harvesting and transporting the Cassava to the company supercedes total sales made. Eg, I spend as high as #250,000 to harvest and transport 30 Tonnes of Cassava to the Company. They buy the 30 Tons Cassava for #450,000. Meaning I made sales of #200,000 for a Cassava that's worth 2.1 Million Naira.

***Even though I have a signed contract with one of the Companies, to supply 2000 Tonnes of Cassava every Month but the cost of hauling it down is the Challenge

The alternative was to
*process the Cassava into finished product (Gaari ). But it requires having one's factory.

*Or to buy a personal truck, since the haulage is what takes away larger part of the profit.

Lesson learnt.

I have decided to desist from planting perishable crops (Cassava, Watermelon, Cucumber etc) in LARGE QUANTITY.

I planted Maize, Melon, Soyabeans, Beans etc. I discovered that these crops are preservable and can be stored for a long time till one gets a desirable price to sell.

Way forward on the present Cassava on ground

*I need assistance of logistics company that can lease out their Truck for us at a cheaper price to convey the Cassava to the Company.

*I need partners in establishing a Gaari processing factory in my area. We have raw material (Cassava) in VERY LARGE quantity wasting away.

I dont think that you have learnt the real lessons. The way forward you are proposing is still a mistake.

In cassava cultivation, you make your profit if you calculate with a realistic sales price.

You seem like you are a victim of sweet talking Internet farm consultants. How will someone tell you that cassava will sell for 70,000 naira per ton? It will never happen and has never happened.

Turning large scale cassava farm into garri is the next mistake that you are about to make. Garri making is a slow process, it is capital intensive also, you will spend up to 40% of the garri sales revenue on paying the workers who process the garri.

The bad part is that garri processing is slow. So your 100 acres of cassava will take months to process. The cassava in the farm will go bad within the months that your are processing.

After spending months to process the garri, you will find that it is difficult to get the bulk money from the garri sales.

Take the cassava to the factory and collect the 200,000 naira profit per trip. Use this method to try to recover your expenses on the farm before the cassava goes bad in the ground.

Rajman45:
Good day everyone... I really need a honest advice and possibly solution to this my problem. Am seriously going insane gradually on this topic.
I and my fiance love each other so much, but we recently found out we are both AS. We have done our introduction, and seriously planning for our wedding in few months time.
I really don't know what to do right now. I learnt that the first 3 kids of AS+AS match are AA, AS and AS, then the fourth will be SS.... Is that true?. I need sincere help and advice from people who might have experience it, doctors and the entire good people of nairaland.

Instead of bothering yourself and going insane why not just marry the girl.

You don't have to have your own biological children.
There are 200 million Nigerians already, your handful of kids will not make any difference to our population.

There are several options you can use after marriage.
1. Both of you can decide not to have children. Your wife can go for sterilization to ensure that she does not get pregnant by mistake or you can get sterilized to ensure that you can not impregnate your wife. You can adopt children of your choice.

2. You can go for test tube babies, you can use egg from another woman that is AA genotype and your sperm or you can use egg from your wife and sperm from another man that is AA genotype.

3. You can decide not to have children and decide not to adopt. Just you and your wife alone versus the rest of the world.

My advice to you is that you should discuss it with your girl and agree on what to do among all the options
