Babtgab, I'm into pigery farming

Hello all...
am an agriculturist I own 10acres of integrated farm land where I intend to mix crop and Animal husbandry. My Crops include; plantain, cashew, vegetables and Animal includes: cow, goats and sheeps.

My journey into Agriculture[i][/i]
I delved into agriculture when I luckily chanced on an information about a place I can get very cheap acres of land for as low as 150/acre in Oyo state's No1 most arable and agrarian town.
When I bought this land i had no farming intentions.

The mere hearing that an acre of land sells 150k made me scamper to buy as many acres as I had money to, in Oyo states No1 most arable and agrarian location.

Then the journey started. For benefit of doubt, an acre of land is equivalent to 6plots but in this town they sell 8 plots as equivalent of 1 acre. After aquiring the land a challenge came what to use this large hectres of land for, which led me to decide to partition the land for different crop farms sections and sections for poultry, cow and goat rearing. That was the moment I realized i was to develope the integrated farming business model.

Today my final challenge is fencing of my farm. Even though am presently considering the wire mesh fence style. I hope with the business partnership strategy I Have put in place that concern will soon be a thing of the past.

That's my story on how I became a farmer.

My Agricultural consultancy includes:
1. Helping people purchase acres of arable land in this town
2. Soil analysis services
3. Partnerships with agro investors willing to invest in my integrated farming by buying slots of unit cost 30k each, return on investment of 25% and Duration of 4 months
4. Selling of equities in my farm,
