Anambra ekene mu unu!!!!
Asim unu ekene mu unu!!!!
ya diri unu mma ooo!!!!

Greetings sir and madams, I greet you all in the name of jesus. As a young man that just graduated from university and doing nothing at the moment. I have placed my interest in agriculture but I am a novice in this business. I seek for your assistance, please all I request is for someone it touches to grant me an internship in your farm. I am obedient, God fearing, respectfull, eager to learn new things and assist my sponsor. I will forever remain greatful.

@farmtech,
i dont think so.


i went to my farm today, some suckers hv started producing leaf.

I have a great fear. MONKEYS are a menace there.
I saw them DEVOUR unripe corn/maize in a farm nearby. The five monkeys ran away when they heard our sound. They hanged on top a tree opposite d road. The bike man dt took me to the farm told me dt a just planting food for monkeys. Dt monkeys dt eat maize, what do i think they will do to plantain? That they will relocate to d farm. Fear dey catch me now. I dont think scarecrow with bells will chase monkeys away. They are intelligent being and over time, will know its scarecrow.

i heard ebube muonso's village at nkwele are plotting land for sale-350k per plot.
Also a village at nsugbe- 350k

@ugsams, i made a serious mistake in my planting. i calculated a plot to be 5000m2 , thinkig dt d measurement which is 50*100 is in meters bt it is 500m2 when i saw d survey plan, my spacing was also done wit d same mistake.
Since a hectare takes max of 2500suckers,a hectare is 10 plots so a plotshld take max250. some plant 100 suckers in a plot.

I didnot sleep d night i realised i made a mistake. Currently, i consider my farm a nursery of suckers. looking for a bigger farm to transplant. My farm is at Nwaobia Nkwelle. Like i said b4, its in a rwsidential plot i bought in an estate, so i decided to plant it there since i dont have plans to build there anytime soon. Am currently looking for a bigger farm. I will check Anaku. Its not easy running a farm if u dont have a car or bike. Movement is key.

Quote me any day, no village in Nkwelle will ever agree to sell their land at 350k per plot. Please be suspicious of anyone that wants to sell to you at that price range.

I'm sorry about your error in calculation. However, i believe it will still grow and yield fruit but the quality of the fruits may be slightly affected.

It will be nice to connect with you offline, If you are on whatsapp please send me a message on ***** or suggest any other medium through which i will be able to reach you offline.

well, ppl in all those are serious farmers. Anambra east is the mainstay of agric in anambra state, frm farming to fishing. it consist of otuocha, aguleri, umuleri , anaku etc The roads in dt area is either bad or non existent. Most ppl from.otuocha/ anam side enter canoe to go to their village as there are no connecting bridges.

I also heard anaku has large farms.i have seen some rice farms owned by their lga. i dont know if they plant anyother thing besides rice?

If you are talking about the new Nkwelle Ezunaka road that is located around Toll gate, the answer is yes.

In the olden days, there was a very big farm settlement occupied by whites. We refer to the place as Agric. They were into animal husbandry and different types of fruit plantations. However, the farm settlement stopped operation around the 90's. Some years back the former governor, Peter Obi privatized it through ANIDS. Some of the lands has been plotted and sold out to individuals while some others are used for agriculture (mostly maize farming) by people... I also learnt that there is a private farm(osakwe farms) that are into animal husbandry around there.

Yes, I know the location of the land that they are plotting. If, you want to see the area yourself enter bike from Nkwo bank or site, tell the bike you are going to Nkwelle boys(Model Comprehensive School, Nkwelle Ezunaka). The said land is located all around the school. You will see the beacons, streets and plots that are being developed. The new Nkwelle road that is being built from immediately after toll gate will pass through there. If you ask me it will make a very good investment but please be careful not to buy from the wrong source.

Meanwhile, I haven't heard from you.

Not far from the expressway, I learnt that bike men now stay in front of the new road(I'm not sure of this) but to be on a safe side just stop at Toll gate and get a bike that will take you to Agric or alternatively stop at site, wait for bike under the billboard of the West African Intercontinental Market tell the bike man to take you to Agric. The trip from site will obviously be more expensive(between #100 - #200) but will take you through Ozeh village in Nkwelle Ezunaka and enable you to see the area more.

yes than are.
we wanted to do 2 by 2m spacing but ended up doing 2 by 2 feet. it was a mistake , so i consider the farm a nursery. They will still grow cos the one planted by my landlord in our compound is close and growing .
