I don't tackle theft directly but I have a security who goes round the farm everyday and workers are not enslaved also. They are always given money for food when they need. It's just by "trusting" workers not to steal to enlarge profits and their money

Madam, the Madam.

I never knew you had plunged into cucumbers also. Came across your work during your tomatoes writeup era.

Neat farm you got there. But I observed the packaging looked kinda smaller than the normal ones I know, as in, the half cut sack wasn't added to the top. Is that the acceptable package in your area?

Do u bring it down to Mile 12 dilaalis, or your customers do farm pickups?

And, what variety is this? Seems smaller than the fruits of Cu999

Its nice having you here

Yes. That's the package for our side here. The yellow big bag command more price than the blue pack. N300 - N500 difference.

We sell in Saki, Ibadan and our area.

Tokyo f1.
CU 999 is not a market favourite in our area.

Thank you sir

How do you manage to use plastic mulch in this our weather?
Please let me know about mulching, will plant next week but I read somewhere that it's not suitable cos of the heat now.
