Egusi hasn't performed exceptional in the last 4 years so timing and pricing is essential to assure one of profit

Exit price for me is 28k max. That's pessimistic but means I am taking less risk

All inquiries to info@farmsynergy.com

I already have a whole lot of numbers with egusi so please use the email rather than call.

You can text but still send a mail so I can follow the mail trail if need be.

Thank you

Modu prices hovering between N120-N140 in Nasarawa, Gadabuke and Lokogoma axis

In the same areas, size 32 sack of unpeeled melon (machine peelable) is going for 20-22k in the interior markets and 23-25k in other markets.

Expenses may include cost of sack @ 200-300; cost of bagging @500-1000; sewing @150-200; loading/offloading @100 each; laada @300-500 and storage @500-1000.

You can start with a bag or two. 50k, 100k whatever amount you have.

Provided the commodity is available in your community and you are storing within proximity of the purchase location, profit can be made.

You may need to identify the market dynamics of your locality as markets operate independent of each other

I cannot possibly put up a comprehensive list of markets. If I know specify a commodity or a location, I may be able to suggest

You have

Dandume market in katsina
Dawaki market in Bauchi
Bokkos market in plateau
Nasarawa market in nasarawa
Andadha market in kaduna

There are a lot of determining factors in arriving at a market of choice

Chilli pepper is not yet harvested in most areas, current prices however between 24k-35k depending on variety.

White yam should be Takum in Taraba, zaki biam or ugba in benue or lokogoma and kokona in nasarawa.

Egusi is definitely nasarawa toto, akwanga, doma, or ashangba in nasarawa, you will also get egusi in edo and benue

Fresh pepper- I don't do perishables but northwest/central and south west should be your best bet

Maize- kaduna, plateau, katsina and niger state. I had earlier listed some markets in those states.

Palm oil- There is a thread on palm oil here, think Peeo is doing a great job with that. Akwa ibom, ebonyi, imo are likely locations.

Another season is around the corner, Op is doing a wonderful job.

Lokoja market today
Soybeans = 16,000
Beans (honey) = 32,000
Guinea corn (red) = 20,000
Millet = 20,000

Large Ibaji yams in Lokoja was 50 sets at 50,000. Very expensive
Other local cheaper variety available but I was not interested.

Palm oil is available in large volume in Kogi.
Is the nassarawa new yam like makakusa out now?

Olayimikami:

Mr Olayimikami pls what's the current cost of dried pepper, and the current price, when does the season start.

Thanks

Thanks very much.

Nice work Mr. Olayimikami Pls sir which commodity is being harvested now?

EMMAACHILE:

Except you are buying off the heaps, you may not get substantial quantity. From late september, harvest will kick in fully

Rugga:


Mr Olayimikami pls what's the current cost of dried pepper, and the current price, when does the season start.

Thanks

Entry period is Oct-Dec. Price currently at 30-34k depending on the variety. Just like ginger, this produce had selective demand and price variation wasn't constant

Jookab27:
Nice work Mr. Olayimikami
Pls sir which commodity is being harvested now?

Egusi and groundnut

Olayimikami:


Egusi and groundnut

Thanks sir.
I really want to invest in it. Please how and where can I buy directly from farmers?I have a place to store it in the south west, but dont know how to preserve it. And is it possible to also buy and sell immediately?
I really need your help sir.

The big question is "do you have a market for it?"

You should also note that movement means your logistics cost goes up and if your market is different from where you store, you incur another set of cost for handling to the final destination

How do you hope to compete with those that will move directly from farm store to the market if price differential is less than 20%?

Egusi unpeeled needs not preservation however you will struggle to sell unprocessed egusi down south.

Groundnut can be stored using pesticides at required volume and applying to withdrawal period.

If the environment is well fumigated, groundnut can stay untreated for up to 6 months

Hello

Olayimikami:
We welcome the arrival of maize, rice and soya. For those interested in warehousing and had made prior contact, u can do a reminder

New entrants can pchat for details.

Maize hovering between N130-N160 per modu depending on seed quality and location.

Btw 68-75 modu makes a 100kg depending on modu size which differs per location

I am currently only able to access rice (unprocessed) from one location for now at 12k- 13.5k for 75kg.

Alternatives sources still at harvest stage.

Will confirm price of soya by next week.

Hopefully, we can extend our lecture series to delibrate on sesame and ginger tonight

That Price Is For Which Area?
