hope u don't mind this few question.
do you have a small backyard space? is it a trial farm or commercial venture?do you have a source of irrigation nearby?(water no be moi moi o)which part of the country do you stay?
The idea is still in the works. Was hoping to buy land and start work on it. I guess it'll be trial until it produces enough to become commercial. I believe a bore hole will be efficient since the area will solely be used for farming.

Some will complain about this long story #onelove .Before i get into the actual project. Let me use this medium to thank whoever it is that brought my lazy a## to agriculture section. You can imagine where an average youth below 24 will be doing with his or her time. But i got lucky when i articles from jasper07, jethro02,organicfoods,kytze among others(abeg no swear for me if i nor mention you o). I told myself that i also had the brain.( no be the same rice and gari we chow to live). I particularly took interest in tomato, cucumber,and pepper and decided to do some more research online, but all i got was the usual 'make 1 million monthly on blah blah farming with my guide. I fit swear for them if no be for this reccession sha.
STORY E HAVE END. my goal is to spend nothing more than N20 per plant till maturity using locally sourced materials for 75% of most of the farming processes from nursery to maturity. can 'we' achieve this? only time and my regular update will tell.(i go dey use tecno java dey snap) grin

Hi! I totally love this your long story. Thinking of doing the same thing myself but I have no idea how/where to start. Plix epp.

4. U cant b a farm manager and not b ready to sweat it out. Note dat ur workers follow by example and will only b motivated wen dey c u working

5. Farming is fun wen d right steps are taking at the right time




Hi. I'm very interested in farming in Nigeria, where do you suggest I start my research from? How do I go about it? Any and every advice is appreciated
