Subsistence agriculture is good but the fact that government is deliberately ignoring Fulani herdsmen who are destroying farmlands and killing farmers calls for concern. Farmers who practice large scale farming cannot go to their farms. Since I was born, I have never heard of beans being a scarce commodity or price of garri skyrocketing almost everyday. Tinubu should open the borders let food come in. What's delaying that? Nigerians are starving nau!!! 3 Likes |

Can APC show us example of how substant farming has helped any nation to be rich in history You want to use 15 trillion to build a road that would never make profit when we are broke Do you know how many farms that money can set up? How many farm cooperative can benefit? 15 trillion is more than enough to revolutionize our agro sector completely But no let's use 15 trillion to build road that won't create any permanent job,won't increase revenue in any way What do you think would happen if we ask farmers to form cooperatives of 50 people minimum, and have access to 500 hectares you train 5 of them on security for 3 months and give them License to carry gun to protect the arms give them access to 50 million to 200 million loan at 7% interest rate with 2 years interest free payment and interest start the 3rd year... Payment in 5 years Say would set aside 5 trillion and an average cooperative gets 75 million That means 66,666 cooperative would benefit Let's say 60,000 benefits thats 3 million farmers benefiting and 30 million hectares cultivated In 5 years interest profit would be over 1 trillion Yearly tax from this cooperative would be over 500 billion minimum Now that's how it's done [size=8pt][/size] 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Good advice. I know and seen a good number of close people in Lagos planting few crops both in their gardens and small farms.. All kind of vegetables, yams, plantain, tomatoes, fruits, etc. Even in abroad my neighbors have gardens that they plant tomatoes, vegetables, etc. So its not out of place. We just need to stop giving excuses for everything. |

Re: Rising Cost Of Food: Presidency Urges Nigerians To Embrace Subsistence Farming by Ojuntana: 12:52am On Jun 23 |
No wonder Zxcvbnmghtr was talking about farming in the backyard So that's the latest APC strategy eh Onanuga needs to stop saying nonsense with all due respect to him Operation Feed The Nation was targeted at food crops because most Nigerian farmers shifted attention to cash crops. It failed ultimately. Buhari's essenco was also a massive failure. I mean, who can even be justifying rationing of milk, sugar and soap in this day and age? Was milk and sugar being produced in people's backyards? If you're referencing two massive failures as justification for your policy, I fear for what you expect to achieve from such policy. |

commoditiesnig:You're right People should also rear chickens, goats and cows to have a steady supply of animal protein beside the gardens. The waste from these animals can serve as manure for the garden. They can also have a small space to keep drums to boil their own crude oil to ensure a steady supply of petrol, diesel and other fuels. Almost all houses abroad have these kind of facilities. Enough of the excuses from lazy Nigerians |
