pman06: TME 419 specie can give you 30tons /ha. |
Re: Cassava Sellers And Buyers, Lets Meet Here by stagger: 1:10pm On Dec 06, 2013 |
kingagropro1: Very correct. And it is also resistant to the very aggressive Ugandan variant of the cassava mosiac virus. In fact, no Nigerian cassava farmer should ignore the TME 419 variety. |

I think that in order for cassava farmers to move forward with mechanization, forming cooperatives is the way forward. You can hardly receive loans or grants as an individual farmer, unless you are an OBJ or the Yar'Adua. Even Dangote is into farming. I know he has in excess of 5,000 hectares of pineapples planted that serves as feed stock for his Dansa pineapple product. By the way, do we know that OBJ Farms is among the top 4 cassava starch producers in Nigeria? |

Maybe I spoil your market. Cassava farmers beware of lofty calculations. I know a town about 25minutes drive from Abeokuta. Their main produce is cassava, and I know how the yields & prices flunctuates. I know 2 companies in Ogun state, one extracts ethanol (AGBARA-IGBESA) while the other is a vendor company (OSOSA) to Flour Mills of Nigeria. The 3rd company makes glucose but its wound-up now. If you are close to any of this locations, go for it. My advice watch out for internet based consultants with no fields,they can be misleading. stagger: |

What is the name of the ethanol company my brother? And the glucose company, is it the one at ibafo? |

If you are close to any of this locations, go for it. My advice watch out for internet based consultants with no fields,they can be misleading. No one's market is spoilt. I will give you some facts. a) The price of gari is used as a gauge of availability and pricing of cassava. Prices of gari and cassava in Nigeria have a cyclical rhythm, being highest in the months from December to May, and prices tending to fall as from June to November. When prices are high, farmers increase production, which invariably leads to a glut in the market and a fall in prices. The easier harvesting in the rainy season when the soil is wet adds to the price drop in the rainy season. When prices fall, farmers will simply leave the tubers in the ground, and then a time comes when the demand outstrips supply, leading to higher prices. b) 80% of cassava production in Nigeria is in the hands of subsistence farmers. This makes it very difficult for large companies to assemble enough cassava to process within the 72-hour window between harvest and decay of tubers. c) There are several dynamics that make it impossible for those who process cassava into starch and glucose to beat countries like Thailand in the international market. The cost of production is so high that by the time products like ethanol, starch and glucose syrup leave Nigeria, the selling cost is way above the international market price. I will end this by attaching a study on On-farm Production Costs of Ethanol done by 2 Nigerian scientists. That will help you explain why the factory you mentioned had to close its doors. No LARGE-SCALE processing plant will breakeven buying cassava from farmers (as opposed to cultivating their farms). This is why mechanization is important. The biggest issue in the cassava market in Nigeria is having to reverse the ratio of cassava farming methods in favour of mechanized farming. It is key!

Excellent. I think our friends are learning. Agribusiness without honesty and a/countability is non sense. I have seen large investments in agriculture go down the drain because of lack of proper information and accountability. So you under stand my position. I disagree with you that it is not sustainable to buy cassava from farmers and process. The problems are Sweet talking, fraud intent consultants who lead you to start but run when the loop holes are blocked. The closed down glucose firm was at Adigbe in Abeokuta. If you have large amounts of cassava, i think there is some one offering to buy in the forum. Honestly, you cant bypass the middlemen. I used to be close to some of them,thats why i know. I am a large scale farmer but farm implements are my challenges at the moment.(tractor) stager: 1 Like |

DISCOVER HOW TO BE PART OF NIGERIA’S LUCRATIVE MULTIMILLION, IF NOT MULTIBILLION AGRO BUSINESS Do you know that over #60billion is spent on party monthly in Lagos State? The essential elements in party business are food and drinks Lets take them one by one FOOD: Our party is not complete without food, be it birthday parties, naming ceremony, wedding etc, people come from near and far, the only way you can sure hospitality is to give them food, in Africa, particularly Nigeria, we entertain our visitors with food, palm wine, bitterkola, kolanut etc depending on the tribe. A good example is Benue state, if you have been to benue state, on your arrival before you say a word of your purpose of visit, you are served with food, while saying your purpose of coming, round 2 is ready, while concluding your purpose of coming, round 3 is served, when you are going round 4 is ready etc, no wonder the state is called the FOOD BASKET of the NATION If you are thinking of what business to invest in and smile to bank, then think of agro trading and food processing for full details visit www.agrosupplyriches..com |
