I started my journey to Zamfara state on July 4, 2021, I boarded a night bus to Abuja from Ibadan.I entered abuja around pass 5am in the morning, from abuja i boarded a car going to Sokoto and i alighted at gusau, i entered cattle market straight because their market day is every Monday and Friday. i have been to different states with different market in northern state but zamfara was the worst state i have ever been to.

i went to zamfara state for sallah rams, reason i choose zamfara state was that it's very close to south west than taraba and Adamawa state because my journey to Adamawa state in last month, i bought some rams from mubi animal market with cheapest price but those animals suffered due to long distance, that's reason i choose zamfara state.

we were three in number, those two brothers were from osun state while i came from ibadan, we worked together as a team.

we used gusau animal market as our based for our animals for feeding and security, on my first day, i bought 12 rams because i intended to buy almost 100 rams. on the second day which was Tuesday, on getting to the market two of my rams was missing, we searched everywhere, i saw one, i didn't see the other one. we left to another market which was very close to Sokoto state, it was 2 hour journey from gusau to the market.

on getting to the market, we paid for transport and one of us lost almost 100k in the car, we searched everywhere but no where to be found, immediately we entered the market, i was terrified about population of fulanis in the market because in southern state we believed that the fulanis are the bandit.i stayed outside the market to monitored the environment because i feared for my life o, also 200k was stolen from the second brother. I spent 6 days in that state and my findings are as follows:

1. There are a lot of thieves in the state, that's reason when you buy cows in that state, you must collect the receipt and the seller must take a picture with cow and attach to the receipt

2. zamfara, kastina and Sokoto are not secured for business, I prefer going to Maiduguri than going to those states

3. on the day we decided to leave the state, after I loaded my rams into the truck, I discovered that 2 of my rams food has missed, I called one of the market management and I explained everything to him that they have stolen my rams food which per a bag was 7k, the guy reported it to seriki of the market, seriki called the police to arrest those boys in the market, fortunately, one of the boys revealed where the food was, to the guy I reported to.
The guy made one statement that I will never forget that, " did you expect these people to come back to zamfara state to buy market with their bad experience" the fact is that I will think twice before I go to zamfara for another business

When I got to Ibadan, I thanked God for saving my life when I heard that some people also travel from Ibadan to northern state (name withheld) after they bought all their rams, they were killed in the market and all their rams were taking away by bandit.

My brother, buying market from North is not easy oo.

Most times you wonder if they want to scare business people away.

Last Egusi trip, before my eyes the merchant Counting my money hand was branching his pocket twice � I halla collect my money back and discovered 1k note was already missing LOL. Just imagine that.

@TeeTee_Boss, Any idea on Kebbi state, as am planning a livestock and rice trip there.

Hunger is now everywhere, northern are now more suffered in this government, forget about the politics, every body wants to survive by all means and if care is not taking by now, bandit, kidnapping, bokoharam in this year will be a child play against next year or more years to come.

Last year, December, I told my people in Ibadan that this year 2021, people will buy Congo beans for 1000 naira, they said lailai, it will not happen, now we are buying kongo beans 1200 naira and has not stopped.

Kebbi state is very good for buying rice but livestock you can go to maigatari in jigawa state. Reason is that because of insecurity,

You made a mistake by going to the market under pressure, simple wrk out a relationship formula with them, watch how your business trip goes well. You need to also note that maybe una leg they clap for market . Bro if you see Maiduguri you go fear.

Good day my fellow country people, due to my research on grains business on nairaland, i decided to venture into the business, and I need adviser and mentor to guide me on the prices of grains from the northern state.

Today, I have decided to travel down from ibadan to north (kano precisely) to buy grains and I need guidance from experience nairaland to guide me on how to negotiate the price, how to communicate with the sellers because I can't speak or hear hausa language.

Thanks, I will be updating this post of the price of the grains when I get to kano market (dawanau)



New update; 5 June, 2021

I want to continue my thread I opened last year,
1. my experience in grains business,

2..advantages and disadvantages of the business

3. How to compare the measurement of the southern and northern states

4. How to make profit in the business

5. Etc

Ñ b; I just want to give my personal experience in the business so you can go and practice it yourself.

There is one bag called PICS, BEST, the bag did the wonder without any snipers, or any anti, anti.
The bag can preserve grains for many years

Good day
1)Please can the bag be used for as storage for all grain types or only beans?
2)Also during storage is the bag placed on an elevated platform or it can be placed directly on the bare floor of the store house?
3) Please what would be the best temperature or a store house(storage facility) where grains are kept for long duration storage?

Thanks for your response.

One thing I will like to learn from you is the different in the size of Adamawa bag and that of Niger State.

1. Yes
2. Yes, place on elevated platform
3. You can store it anywhere but follows the rules;

A. Ensure that the grains is completely dry. Drying b4 storage may help to reduce the initial rate of infestation

B. Take the 3 PICS bag apart and check the 2 inner bags for holes and tears.

C. Make sure there are no air pockets at the bottom of the bag,

D. Make sure no grains gets in between the bag

E. Keep the bags in a safe and dry place, keep it from rodents because it may make hole in the bag
