Great work guys... I have been following this thread for quite a while now(although passively)... I agree to the fact that there is a pressing need to plan for or find a system through which one can sell their produce... I must say that I feel for our farmers and local producers in this country and in Africa at large
Because they put so much effort to produce and yet don't get as much demand for what they produce.
This can be frustrating.

...however things are better now

Some really creative initiatives are coming up; for promoting goods locally produced in Africa so as to meet more customers and sell more. These initiatives would go a long way to help bridge the gap between borders; creating a seemless system for trade within African countries and also the global world.

The bottom line of this is the best way to support our farmers, manufacturers and business people is to activate trade. Because when our producers get more customers to purchase their good.... They would be encouraged to produce more.

I am a marketing expert and have had opportunity of being part of a team that has developed a platform exactly fit to help African producers get customers online... And so far, though in its early stage, its been successful! People are actually using the system to get customers from different part within Nigeria and other countries in Africa.

My personal BB pin: 5600305f.. Ask me questions and I'd be glad to answer

If you have cassava to sell, buyers are available
You can contact me.

You want to get good price for your produce?Get at least 5 buyers and go with the highest bidder.
This only applies to produce that does not need to be processed before it reaches the populace.

Some times,you get selling experience by making mistakes and learning from them .
When you make low sales,what do you learn and how can you correct them next time?

One thing that you must strive for to have a optimum price for your produce is QUALITY.
when you have a good produce, the rest will take care of itself.
Getting good quality also boils down to good management.

I will be sharing some of my strategies i used in selling some of my produce in the market.

I remember some years back when i sold over 15 acres of water melon and my profit was low,i was infuriated but after some days a farmer friend told me this trick in selling watermelon and since then anytime i farm watermelon,i use the method and have been working for me with good profit

Normally sellers buys watermelon in Cabstar trucks,a very good watermelon sells for #70k/truck but the monetary value of melon the truck will take is more than #300k if each watermelon is sold in the market.

The last time i farm watermelon, i sold each one of them #250 but they are very big.
1month before harvesting,i had meet with dozen of potential buyers and i was able to get a good one ready to buy at my own term.

If you are selling watermelon in the open market,i think this is a good strategy for you.

NOTE: If you are going to be selling each watermelon on your farm,it should be large ( to have a good negotiating power),the last one i sold was twice the size of the normal watermelon in the market.

Farming Tips For Bigger Size Watermelon.

Maintain spacing of 2m*2m.
Spray insecticides every 2weeks.
If you are planting during September or early february add GNLD.

If you are not ready to devote more of your time,watermelon is not for you....you can ask soloxam,he will tell you that.

Good sharing bro, am just joining the team, what's the meaning of GNLD bro?

Lesgupnigeria:

Ok.From my experience,first buyer are always opportunist.They want to take advantage of you.

I know the reason why you want to sell to the first buyer, You want to sell to the first buyer because of fear that if you dont sell so fast,you might not see buyers to sell to.
The buyer can read your mind and thereby tend to put out a ridiculous price for your products....i am been in that situation before.

In order to safeguard yourself, contact and negotiate with at least 10 buyers a months before harvesting your crop.
This will help you more in your sales.

i have always enjoy ur knowledge Sharing on this platform Bro, even a professional Marketer can't do more than what u are sharing here, God Bless all of our Heroes @world1, Lesgupnigeria, Boluwajoko etc that I can't mention here...

Lesgupnigeria:
A lot of farmers on this agric section keep criticizing the Minister of Agriculture that all the youth programmes are propanganda but thank God,i was able to see some witnesses that have enjoyed what the government have been doing in the agric sector.

I have said it more than once that i am not a politician or a card carrying member of any political parties but an agro-preneur and i should be able to say what i am seeing and encourage the doubting thomases..lol to key into the programmes.

I have seen improvement in the agricultural sector during this present administration than any other.

Although a lot of things are still.needed to.be done which have not been done by the federal government and things which are not to be done that are being done but i will not want to distract you by delving into all that.


I.got this SMS this afternoon from BOA:

Your BOA Greencash will soon be funded, part of this fund is not cashable. Contact NCGA for your inputs or call 0808*******, 0816******* Powered by Cellulant
