Farmerakinloye6: You are a humble man. I am far from being a pro. I come to Nairaland to learn. I have learnt somethings from your posts. You are clearly advanced in tomato production, for instance. I am just learning the ropes. The comments I made about the clay soil were drawn for personal experience from farming for a few years on soil of similar characteristics. I enjoy your dedication and your readiness to share. Thanks and Cheers! 5 Likes |

tpben: Good day, From my experience, cucumber might be the most suitable of the three crops you listed for the clay soil especially when the rains come pouring down. All this being equal, the cucumber might do a little better there than elsewhere. You may however, have to contend with more than usual weed pressure. All the best Cheers |

Okoroemeka The excitement in your tone is palpable. The scale is huge. You have come a long way. How many days apart were the two sections planted. I am assuming the crop in question is cucumber. Have you given some thought to how to manage the scheduling of the harvests to avoid taking too many bags to market at any one time; especially in periods of glut? Does this farm rely more on in house workers for the land prep, irrigation setup, planting, stake and trellis installation, daily management and the planned harvest? Or is it a blend of casual worker and in house workers? I have some experience with high volume cucumber production. We can compare notes offline if you do not mind. Cheers! okoroemeka: |

tpben: Bros, No vex. Different farmers have had differing levels of success with various crops. It appears many more farmers in the south have had more unpleasant experiences with watermelon than with other crops. For instance, some successful watermelon farmers (Team A) dread cucumber like leprosy, while many successful cucumber farmers (Team B) will not go close to watermelon. There is Team C that has mastered both watermelon and cucumber. I find it interesting when Team A and Team C tell team B watermelon is a walk in the park, and Team B disagrees vehemently; or when Team B and Team C tell Team A that cucumber is a money spinner and Team B snigers at them. I am currently in team B. I aspire to join Team C. I dread watermelon. I have had an unpleasant experience with watermelon that left me scarred. But I will like to master it too. I know my poor results with watermelon is connected to the fact that farm is in a swamp which accentuates the farming challenges. Somehow, I have managed to have relative success with cucumber in the swamp, despite the challenges. But it's watermelon is a no no as long as my farm is in the swamp. I digress. tpben, I guess the point I am trying to make is that you should understand what might be the background of okoroemeka's position on watermelon. Kindly share as much useful insights into how to successfully crop watermelon, as you are comfortable sharing. Do not be discouraged by our direct or indirect skepticism. I want to be Team C.

frankedoka: Hello sir. If you will permit me to attempt to answer your questions... I will start by saying every farm setup is unique and as a result the configuration that's optimal for one farm might not be optimal for another. This is true in general terms and also specifically in terms of irrigation. Generally speaking, you can irrigate your drips with water coming from your borehole under the pressure delivered by your submersible pump. It should work in most cases. You can also deliver via overhead tank. One option is not necessarily better than the other. The overhead tank comes with added cost of installation. But gives you the added advantage of storage; which allows you to deliver water under considerable pressure without requiring to run tour pump until you exhaust the stored water. In terms of running costs. You still spend the same amount on fuel for the generator that powers the pumping machine. So no winner there. If your interest is in which option delivers better pressure? The answer is it depends on the height of the stand on which the tank is placed versus the capacity of the submersible pump versus the size of your operations. For a relatively small operation, pressure from the borehole would be adequate, in which case there will be no need for the added cost of installing overhead tank. The advantage of overhead tank is you have water stored, that you can use for irrigation even when you are not running your pump. The question is whether the extra cost of installing overhead tank is justified. I will say you can avoid that cost. In terms of the better drip connectors; in my experience, the ones with valves are better. They allow you the flexibility of deciding which beds to water, when and to what extent. They are definitely worth the extra cost. Depending of the setup of your drips and size of operations, you might discover that the pressure from your borehole or overhead tank or other sources of water is not getting to all the emitters on all the drip lines. Let's say you have 20 drip lines. You discover that not all the emitters are getting sufficient water, the connectors with valves allows you to do staggered watering. You close off the valves at say 10 of the driplines so that only 10 driplines have to share the pressure from your water source. You will find that the emitters will be better served and than when you had all 20 driplines lined up. After delivering sufficient water to the first 10 lines, you open the valves of the next 10 lines and close those first 10 driplines. Note, please do NOT close all the connectors before opening the next set....if your pump is delivering water and all the emitters are closed, you will start bursting your hoses or pipes....or even damage the pump. Even when your pump can serve water to all the driplines sufficiently, you might discover that more water gets some drip lines than to others so that after 1hour of running your pump, some emitter points are already saturated with water while others are not. It is advisable to isolate those that are saturated so that more water gets to those that are yet to get enough water. Otherwise you will overwater some crops and under water some and both categories of crops will potentially be stressed. I know that some very seasoned farmers can setup their drip irrigation in away that they can effectively use the connectors that don't have valves. But my advise will be to choose the option of with valve. It will save you many known and yet to be seen hassles. Cheers 4 Likes |

Wizs2019: Hello bro, If you are willing to commit additional funds for staking, then the 'A-Frame' staking design might be the way to go. It is a sturdier method. But you are likely going to need almost three times the amount of bamboo you currently use. And I am not surprised you have that challenge particularly going by the volume of yield you record for your production. Nuel2good, if funding isn't much of a limitation, drip system is what you should be looking at (as advised by Wizs2019). Even if funding is an issue, plan on how you can gradually implement drip system. If irrigation is your biggest challenge with cucumber, then we can say you have identified the solution to your biggest headache; pending implementation. Cheers |

Wizs2019: Thank you once again. I wouldn't really want to go back and forth on the same issue. Potassium Nitrate will give you very good yield. I have seen that happen on my farm. Yield isn't the reason I advised against it. Potassium nitrate KN might give you a better yield in the short term. Because cukes need a lot of potassium during fruiting, if you are KN is your source of the K. You will also be providing a lot nitrogen. Which we shouldn't be doing during fruiting as I have said earlier. Disease susceptibility appears to be more with direct nitrate being your primary source of Nitrogen. From your experience, have you taken any notice if the day after you apply KN if you don't any particular pests invade your farm? If you it doesn't happen to you, great. Generally, KN is a big magnet for beetles. Meanwhile, there is a restriction/ banon the importation of nitrate fertilizers, apparently for security reasons. They are now scarce. The ban, if it continues, is likely to impact availability. The potassium- calcium relationship is something you need to research. From the breakdown of the constituent of chicken manure you provided, there is no boron, molybdenum, cobalt.etc. I hope you know how important these are, particularly boron and molybdenum... Like I implied earlier, your program is similar to one I used in my 2nd cucumber cycle this year. And the yield was my best upto that point. But I have since come by superior information. Which is what I have tried to allude to. If you are not comfortable with urea (even after I suggested you buffer it with fulvic and humid acids), no problems, nitrates will give you a good result in terms of yield. But please do not take the information about potassium-calcium relationship lightly. |

Wizs2019: My bad. I noticed at the start of the document that your recommendations were per plant. But at last table I didn't see the units (at first, until you mentioned it again here). I just assumed the aggregated figures were in bags or kg. So I guess it helps whoever needs it to extrapolate based on the plant population they plan to do. Thanks for the clarification. |

okoroemeka: If I understand what you are saying, I think the response to your question is already embedded within the question. Unless you produce your own manure, and you don't vary the feed for your animals that produce the manure and you keep other factors constant...you cannot honestly expect to produce manure with the same characteristics consistently. This means we might need to analyse every batch of manure we acquire. This is not feasible for many of us. I don't bother with analyses. My operation is quite large and requires a lot of manure which I have had to source from multiple countries. Analysing them is the least of my priority. My current preference is for NatSoil which is derived from Black Soldier Fly Frasse. I may still combine with chicken feed in the future. I try to avoid the debate of which manure source is superior. When I use manure now, it's more for boosting microbial activity in my soil rather than for dependence on specific nutrients. When you have the right microbes active in your soil their activity could help breakdown minerals that were previously in states that your crops could not access. Unfortunately, our heavy dependence on synthetic inputs counteracts the activities of microbes. If anyone is interested in the nutritional composition of their manure they need to take to the lab, any information gotten from the internet on this would only serve as a general guide. 2 Likes |

Wizs2019: Well, many thanks for your response. You have spoken well. Discussions around best nitrogen source are actually a bit controversial, elevated and complex. I won't say I fully understand it yet. Nitrogen alters many constituents of plants; amino acids, phonetics, nucleic acids, total Nitrogen, protein and ratio of carbohydrates to Nitrogen. The listed constituents are linked to plant resistance or susceptibility to diseases. Nitrogen is the main mineral factor changing the amount of cellulose in the plant and thereby affecting the mechanical strength of cell walls. Nitrogen promotes succulent tissues which allows some foliar pathogens to easily penetrate, multiply and develop rapidly. So both Urea and Nitrate as sources of nitrogen are guilty of promoting this vulnerability. It appears that nitrates, perhaps because it triggers great plant response, accentuates the susceptibility to diseases more. I would buffer my urea application with humid and folic acids for better overall results. I am quite familiar with what Haifa cucumber document. I have used it as a main guide in one of my cucumber production cycles. The outcome wasnt bad at all. The potassium products generally have fungicidal properties. My case against early application of potassium is that plant cells only have a certain room to absorbs positive ions like potassium calcium magnesium etc. But because potassium is more mobile, if you apply it earlier than calcium, it will occupy sites into the cells meant for calcium. Thereby reducing the ability of the crop to benefit from immunity promoting properties of calcium. I didn't really say dont apply potassium at all at the start of the cycle. I said if your soil tests reveal you have some potassium, it might just be better you de-emphasize potassium application in favor of calcium. Is it ok to apply potassium at anytime? Perhaps. But is it better to delay the application till later in the cycle?Definitely. Bear in mind that plants need almost all the nutrients they need at virtually all the stages. So I will apply some potassium regularly, but small doses before fruit stage. You also don't want to have potassium deficiency at any stage. It is always better to have a balanced nutritional program at all stages. That's the best way to minimize susceptibility to diseases. Note that 'balanced' doesn't not imply 'equal'. Because of my knowledge of the antagonistic relationship between potassium calcium and magnesium as well as that the need for potassium is greatest during fruit fill and that calcium is needed to boost immunity; I will rather delay application of potassium so that my crop can be given the best opportunity to develop its own immunity and so that my need for fungicides is minimized. If I must apply potassium along with calcium, I will add boron and manganese. Boron assists with plant's ability to take up calcium. Manganese regulates the rate at which potassium is taken up. It might be too general to say that manure contains all the required micro nutrients. It might actually be a fallacy. Manure is an excellent input to crop production. But unless we cannot confidently say what a batch of manure contains unless it is analyzed. I am not a very public person. My intention is not to call you out. I only wanted to share some of the knowledge I have come by. Like I said it's very generous of you to share your production program. It will help a lot of us. Good enough you also have good results to back up your program with. Haifa cucumber document is a good place to start. I have benefitted immensely from it. But it's merely a starting point.

Wizs2019: The aggregated figures you provided at the end of the number of bags required for each type of fertilizer didn't come with say size of area covered, 1plot, 1 acre or 1 hectare. If it's based on number of crops, how many crops do you recommend those quantities for? How many crops do you recommend per acre (range) given the spacing you suggested. |

EMMAACHILE: No. I am just saying that with NPK you are forced to keep giving your crop a nutrient it doesn't need so much of at a specific stage. It doesn't give you so much flexibility. |

Wizs2019: Thank you boss for generously sharing this. May I humbly give some suggestions? 1) Potassium has an antagonistic relationship with Calcium. Potassium is highly mobile within the soil and crops and crops generally have a high affinity for potassium. When you apply a combination of calcium and potassium products, the chances are that the crop takes up the potassium and absorbs little or no calcium. (because of the presence of potassium) 2) Meanwhile, Calcium is needed to build the immune system of most crops from seedling through vegetative stages (till the end of the crops cycle). This will help the crop through the vulnerable stages of fruiting through harvest. If you apply too much potassium too early, you will lock out the calcium from the crops, no matter the quantity of calcium you apply. The crop will just not absorb the calcium. You may even see signs of calcium deficiencies in the leaves (if you know the symptoms) inspite of heavy bombardment with calcium. 3)Potassium is needed in huge amount from fruiting till the end of life of the crops. it is needed for fruit fill. 4) Meanwhile, as I have mentioned in a previous post, nitrate is not the best source of Nitrogen. Nitrates might give your crop a huge foliage boost; but they also attract a lot of pests to your crops. Minimize it as much as possible. Use urea if nitrogen is what you are looking for. Use Sulphate of Potash (SOP) in place of Potassium Nitrate, if potassium is what you are looking for. 5) Be wary of the use of NPK. When you apply NPK at the early stages, you are giving your crop Nitrogen and Phosphorus (which it needs at this stage) but you are also giving it Potassium, which will antagonize the absorption of calcium and thereby make your crop less immune.When you use NPK at the later stages of fruiting, your crop needs more of Potassium and less of Nitrogen. NPK will ensure that you are feeding it the nitrogen it doesn't need so much of. The crop will be wasting valuable energy on feeding its leaves when it should be concentrating on feeding the fruits. 6) Instead, use SSP or some other source of insoluble phosphorus for slow release of phosphate through the live cycle of the plant. Apply very early. If possible, a month before planting. Use urea as a preferred source of Nitrogen. And apply little or no nitrogen when your crop starts to fruit. Apply minimal quantity of potassium at the early stages (or no potassium if your soil has copious amount of potassium). Then apply SOP abundantly once the crop gets to fruiting stage, where it needs a lot of Potassium. 7) Magnesium sulfate is important definitely. You didn't mention micro nutrients. They are are needed through the entire lifespan of the crop...some more than the others at different stages. 9) One more thing, unless the concern is about leaving infected leaves on the portion to be cultivated, it is good practice to work leaves of cleared vegetation into the soil and apply things like biodigester to accelerate the rate of decomposition. This boosts the organic matter content of the soil and helps you harvest some of the nutrients in the foliage of the cleared vegetation and put them back into your soil. Cheers 2 Likes |
Agriculture / Re: Is Greenhouse Farming Profitable? by TangoAlpha: 4:17pm On Aug 24, 2019 |
opelyem: I do not have a greenhouse...yet. But I got close to getting one recently. I might know a bit about the challenges from my little research. Let me share the little I know. 1) The person that told you to draw your inference from the the large number of greenhouses closing down all around is on point. Many have gotten their fingers burnt by greenhouse farming in this country. But you should be aware that many are also running greenhouse farming successfully in this same country. You need to understand what stands the two categories of investors apart. Please do further research. 2)It appears that many of the earliest new generation farmers that dabbled into greenhouse farming installed greenhouses that were not tropicalized. The temperatures in the greenhouses were too hot for the crops to survive or thrive well. The crops either died off, or gave abysmal yields. The potential solution was to install climate control, the 'best' being airconditioners. Running costs with A/C, considering costs of power, erodes off the profit margin, if any. This is why greenhouses in Jos area and areas with similar temperature profiles stand better chances of success; with respect to temperatures. 3) Next, people matured into ventilated greenhouses. This alleviated the challenges with high temperatures. The next problem was (and still is) with humidity. Humidity is crazily high in the South. This predisposes southern farms (even open field farmers) to a lot of challenges with fungi and bacteria problems that the northern farmers typically don't have to bother about. There are solutions, but they are expensive. Humidifiers, A/Cs, cooling pads, and High Volume Low Speed (HVLS) fans. HVLS fans, probably hold the most promise in terms of total cost of ownership versus efficiency for us here in the south. Again, if your greenhouse is in the north, provided it is ventilated, humidity isn't so much of your headache. 4) Apparently, greenhouse farmers in the south struggle to break into the market, the so called standard market. When they eventually do, they are unable to stay there for long; reportedly because, buyers shift the goal posts and fail to honor agreements. Greenhouse farmers are already priced out of the open markets because of the huge costs incurred with temperature and humidity controls, among others. the farmer is forced to close shop. 5) Net houses are a close approximation to the greenhouses. It would seem that a number of people are successfully running nethouses even in the south. Some of my claims might be wrong, because I haven't actually run a greenhouse. I just made some research and asked some questions; and finally decided to put the plans to invest on hold while my scarce funds go elsewhere...for now. Also bear in mind that there are many other factors that entrepreneurs face in this country that make the business environment unfavorable for the survival of any business. Then farming in general is also a tough venture that attracts a lot of headache in this country. Then you can graduate to the challenges of greenhouse farming. Business problems in Nigeria. Then Farming problems in Nigeria. Then Greenhouse problems in Nigeria. I hope this helps you focus the direction of your research? 4 Likes 1 Share |

gbengaoa: There are at least three things wrong. 1) Malnourishment. I cannot tell a lot from looking at one leaf. There may be multiple nutrients deficient in the crops. But I can clearly see signs of Potassium deficiency. And your crop is in fruiting/harvest stage; when potassium requirements are at the peak. Apply generous quantities of potassium. Please go for Potassium Sulfate as much as possible. Avoid Potassium Nitrate. Nitrate will cause more harm than good....especially at this stage. 2) There are signs of insect attack. Probably beetles. You should be able to tell which insects are the culprit by observation. Insect traps might have been able to help you ID the insects; but I doubt if you have enough time to get that now. You need to find an appropriate insecticide to support the imiforce. Extensive beetle infestation can introduce bacteria infection (I think) 3) I suspect you Downy mildew. 'Suspect' because the signs from the picture you shared are not so pronounced. You may need to get additional fungicides to support the z-force. I doubt if you still have much room to reverse the DM. I think at best, you will be able to prevent it from getting worse until you get additional harvests from this set of production. Crops are most susceptible to infection during fruiting. See them as 'pregnant'. All the best 4 Likes |

gthorpe123: A post like this, I think, should get a bit more attention. It's a well of information and potentially a solution to many challenges we have as crop farmers in this country. The NatSoil potentially fills the gaps where poultry and other animal manure are limited, while matching or even out performing the animal manure in their areas of strength. If you study the quoted post carefully, you will probably see my point. Apart from the nutritional promises of the NatSoil, for me, the chitin it contains gives it a huge edge. We need to study the benefits of chitin and discuss it a bit more to educate ourselves. A lot of us think that the best way to combat diseases is by generous application of fungicides. Unfortunately, this is the narrative pushed the most in this country. The first advise I see people give farmers on Nairaland and elsewhere in this country when farmers have issues with plant diseases is 'bombard with this or that fungicides'. Interestingly, crops have natural ability to build immunity to many diseases they face. Our heavy dependence on synthetic inputs limits the plant's ability to build this immunity. Chitin is one of those substances that trigger a false disease attack on crops early in the crop's lifecycle and forces the crop to secrete 'chemicals' or hormones that fortify the crop's immune response. By the time the actual diseases now start to attack the crop, the crop will be ready to combat it by itself with little or no need for fungicide application. Please study this more. It's a blessing that we have easy access to a product that has chitin. We don't have to bother about importation costs. (There are other sources of chitin locally, the problem is with extraction) Natsoil is awesome for other reasons if only we can all interprete the weight behind many of the listed features.
