Good afternoon bro

I would love an analysis

Nezzjnr:

Why is the Agric sector not saturated yet

Why has the sector not been saturated? It can not be saturated because the statistics has indicated that in Nigeria 55 percent of Nigerians earn their living from agricultural activities, i.e 49 percent engage in crop production while only 6 percent engages in livestock keeping. Unfortunately, these small holder farmers own only an average of 0.5 hectares of land and you can guess what their outputs can be, Obviously very low. Yield per hectare is nothing to recon with. Productivity is next to zero. They all practice 'Farming as Savings'', rather than "Farming as a business''.

However, all the produce gotten goes to feeding the over 200 million population of Nigerians, feeding this growing population is what absorbs everything produced from maize to egg, to cassava with nothing substantial to feed the industries. Farming precedes industrialisation, but in Nigeria we put the cart before the horse.

It's rather wide expose in my view.
