what is the breed of your pig are you sure that the pigs come from a farm known to have pigs of good quality and where the management and standard of hygiene are excellent....is this your first time of rearing pigs I guess it likely to pertain to your breed.. |

Hy Doc do you have an idea of the best rabbits and guinea pig breedds i could get. And where i could get them in lagos. Thanks in anticipation |
Re: Are You Into Crop Or Animal Farming,ask Questions Here by Nobody: 6:54am On Oct 01, 2013 |
kagari: Hy Docany breed of rabbit is good, there are two factors to take into consideration before choosing a rabbit. First: the size of the rabbit and secondly: the amount of care it requires. Large rabbits may be affectionate, laid back pets but they do require large cages, more room to exercise and more food. Very large breeds may be difficult to handle and prone to problems. the most popular guinea pig breed is the American guinea pig, also known as the English cavy. This cavy normally comes in color s such as cream, black, white or speckled, or you will see them in a mixture of two or three colors. This is an obvious best choice for a first time guinea pig owner because they are good-natured and hardy not to mention easy to maintain because they require no special grooming. You can also find other short-haired guinea pigs that also have a smooth coat but have special markings. One popular one is the Dutch guinea pig, and you can recognize it since it has a primarily black coat with a white blaze down the face and a distict marking over the back similar to that of the Dutch rabbit. |

I am interested in setting up a Ugu vegetable farm on a mini commercial scale, like on just one plot of land. If it succeeds on that scale, my inention is to go fully into the business. My questions are: Is the planting of ugu on commercial scale a profitable businees? Does ugu require particular soil types? Is it capital intensive? What is your assessment of the market demand for ugu? How long does it take ugu to mature, starting from the day it was planted? Finally, does the plant require special care or treatment for it to fluorish well? I will appreciate your reply. |

Finally, does the plant require special care or treatment for it to fluorish well? I will appreciate your reply.Telfairia accidentalis, commonly known as fluted pumpkin, is a tropical leaf vegetable. Popularly called ugu, the major problem associated with the cultivation of fluted pumpkin, just like other fresh farm produce, is its high level of decay. It is a common sight to see bunches of decayed fluted pumpkin leaves litter many major markets because of the dearth of preservation facilities. hardly can you go to any restaurant or big hotel without seeing a food prepared with the leaf as a major ingredient. Ugu vegetable is by far, the most consumed vegetable of any kind in Nigeria. An acre size Ugu farm is capable of turning in above N500,000 and it will take you less than N50,000 to cultivate one acre farm of pumpkin vegetable. just like vegetables it can be planted on any type of land and takes about 3 month for it to flour |

felixzo1: my question is on dairy cattle. how many litres. of milk does a a cross breed between our local and foreign breed produce at. 50 percent cross. and 75percent cross. A local breed cow can produce about one to four litres of milk a day compared to about 10-15 litres of milk that a cross-breed can produce a day. A 75 per cent cross-breed cow can produce as much as 30-35 litres of milk a day 1 Like |

julibaba: My pig breeds are landrace, largewhite and duroc. this is a good but expensive ration which might not be realistic towards current market price. Also the stomach of recently weaned pigs can't take full advantage of this ration so a lot of it will be excreted. |
