Yes you can plant provided you have a ready market for the pepper. There is always gluts of peppers starting from July towards December cause many Farmers plant the pepper using rainfall ABMC: |

Happy Sunday nairalanders I want to venture into pepper farming. I'm based in IMO State . I need useful information and advice from farmers on here. More specifically, I need info on the current price of pepper in the market, how to boost productivity, how much I can get from one acre of land, and any other helpful information. Thank you. |

OluchiDelly:Even if you sell @ 5k per bag, you still gonna make profit.assuming you are getting 7 bags and sale at 5k × 7bags=35k twice a week, how much is level 10 officer earning in Oyo state . I love Farming because I don't have to wake by 4am preparing for work like my neighbor and still earn below 50k in a month. 2 Likes |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by jidestroud(m): 12:23pm On Jun 04, 2019 |
ogbongenet: Nice. But it really goes beyond getting the figures; all these 7bags, 10bags, 20bags x whatever etc. Everything still boils down to cost of production to get the bags. How much money is being invested to get whatever harvest. Pls don't get me wrong, quite a few look at these figures and simply dump their jobs to go into farming only to be hit with the hard truth. Farming is not for the feeble minded o!. A whole investment can go down the drain just like that and thanks to the government wey no send at all. Nevertheless, I remain your faithful follower. One the pruned pepper once again, what's the outcome? or was it part of the ones you sold off? 10 Likes 1 Share |

jidestroud:[/quote] I agreed with you that Farming is a risk business but you get to a stage that you will know how to manage risk very well..that is why I tell people strive to get more information everyday,read both online and offline,attend seminar's and practice what you learnt. And again I will also encourage integrated Farming,i think that's the way minimize your risk,when you fail in one area you still have another to fall back to..I could remember the year I lost my whole chicken farm to soldier ant attack, money that I borrowed from cooperative..oh my God it's very terrible but thank God I have two big rams that I later sold during salah.if not I have to run back to family and friends for help because I'm a fresh graduate then.Every business has its own risk but for me I will stick with what I know-how to do best because I don't want to end up queueing for pensions. On the prune pepper issue,two pictures was attached one pruned and non prune. 2 Likes

Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Nobody: 4:57pm On Jun 10, 2019 |
ogbongenet: Exactly what i did. Integrated farming. When a flour bag of pepper was sold for 7k in March towards May ending , i was upset and scared of how to recoup my investment but then i reminded myself that i have over 1500 plantain stands in the farm which would sell for good money when we harvest it. Thank Goodness, pepper's price has picked up in the market but the produce hasn't gone beyond 1bag and it was sold for #15k few hours ago just like last weekend at the local market here. Plantain is another cash cow at the moment. We haven't harvested much of that because they were planted last year July, but someone called to inform me that he took 3 dozens to the local market yesterday and sold it for #40k and he said he would have made more if he had taken it to Lagos. It hasn't been easy, there were days i had to come home during weekends from work to pump water to the farm before the rain hit the ground in March, there were days i had to borrow money for transport fare to work. I even spoke to oga okoro emeka at some point who advised me not to farm by proxy, i have learnt a lot from that, but things are looking up now and there's hope even though i am yet to make the entire ROI. 8 Likes

Degis:holy cow!!!I never heard that ugu can be infected by disease,and Good God!!!redforce on ugu leaves,that chemical is meant to treat and prevent black pod disease and other serious disease in Cocoa not ugu,it's more powerful a fungicide to use on ugu,I think the best thing to do is remove infected crops and dispose,that spots looks like frogeye bacterial spots,don't waste your money,time and risk health on trying to treat it,that's rainy season farming for you,many diseases with names are coming up, even few without names are showing up. |

Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by ogbongenet: 9:53pm On Jun 12, 2019 |

Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by jidestroud(m): 7:26am On Jun 13, 2019 |
Degis: I can't get a clear view. Is it just a selected few, the few leaves you zoom in to snap or the whole plant itself? Nevertheless, you've got white leaf spot on your hand boss mi. And from the first picture sef, I could almost diagnose TeMV from the first picture but it blurry. That's all. Oh yes, you asked for solution Well, it really nothing to worry about. Was wondering why you bombarded with so much lethal force. . although, all you applied should work. But this is what I do to my Fluted Pumpkin; 1. Get an hybrid variety from a good source. 2. Plant the good quality seeds only. You can even treat seeds before planting. 3. Soil preparation before planting is vital. I make sure I apply enough manure to improve soil before planting the good seeds. 4. Use adequate spacing when planting. 5. Whichever method you use (though I preach only organic), just make sure to wade off pest to zero tolerance. Since you clearly stated it's a trail, why not try out neem oil or it mixture. It works well by inhibiting the spores of the fungus from germinating. 6. In your case, try removing all affected leaves, remove all debris. I do this most times for free air circulation. I guess that's all. But for the TeMV bros, simply remove plant biko. |
