Greetings farmers, In this thread I will explain how Easy and profitable pepper farming is though I won't be Explaining in details grin


I started off early last year around the end of February, I did my nursery of roughly 3000 seeds (I pack of the super habanero f1 & the f2) after the nursery process I had at least 2500 seedlings which i transplanted into a small black nylon bag due to the temperature and weather conditions and it made it. easier for me to manage, it stayed at the small nylon bag till it first rain, I have already prepared the land so i transplanted the pepper to field, though it was raining daily but it was enough for the pepper to keep surviving. few weeks after transplant it started producing flowers and bearing seeds during that time it happens to be raining at least twice a week and it made the pepper healthy. around 2nd week of June my pepper started ripping and my first harvest was four bags. I harvest my pepper weekly and it increases after each harvest, during that period pepper was very scarce, costly and Infact,i wasn't meeting up with the supply because of the demand of the pepper in my area, when it was at it peak production I harvested 13 bags consecutively for 6weeks which was shocking and a bag was sold a 19k per 25kg bag. I harvested my pepper for 4 months before the production began to reduce but was still profitable. After the total harvest I made a profit of 200% return on Investment .

Pepper is very easy to maintain as long as you are giving it the necessary requirements and has just 40% stress but the stress can't be compared to the joy of making money every week. grin

We go again this year grin

How much did you sell each bag.?

Because market women will sell about 10-12 pepper for 200.

What do you mean you heaviest 8 beg in a day?

Did you heaviest all the pepper or every blessed day that what you heaviest?

shocked

In 1998, my grandma used to plant garden eggs. I was around 11yrs then didn't know much about farming but am always with my grandma in the farm doing everything she said.


Can't remember how long it takes before harvesting it but we always smile to the bank after we're done.

After she passed away, i continued with the farming.



Today I am in Europe and all the money came from farming.

No look at the conditions, just focus and trust me. During harvesting moment, your neighbours will know that your food is done cool

Very lucrative. Yoruba people like pepper more than food.
If a Yoruba girl urinates on your garden, the following day, pepper will sprout on the spot.

Next to pepper is agbado.
grin grin
No be only yoruba oh.
Even us for south like pepper die
