follow me bak pls.

After overheads I have been informed annual profit is roughly ₦400K per acre for sweet potato, this is a minimum, which increases as the major cost is buying the equipment and land in the first year. I have near 100+ acres virgin land

I want to know the price of hire because you only use the planter and harvester at beginning and end of each growing season respectively. Destoner is used only once but by all commercial farmers.

So you think you will get all these equipments for lease in Nigeria? You are on long thing. Is either you buy yours or use manual labor. Then never think because they said 400k is possible per acre... You will achieves it. It takes strong will and determination.

I am importing these, I want to hire them out to people for myself. Its not everyday I will use them. I want to know the daily rate that commercial farmer would pay for each of these items. 400k per acre is very achievable if you do everything right, and this doesn't include the money you get from renting the equipment. A friend is upgrading his potato farming equipment in Europe and is willing to sell me the whole set for cheap. Its good for 200 acres workload.

For the potato Planter... With your tractor. It should not be more than 8,000 to 10,000/hectare. Harvester too should not be more than 8,000 to 10,000/hectare. People don't normally use Backhoe here but if the need be it should be in the same range as above. Tipping is only useful for you but it should be about 15,000/day. Regards.
