You can make so much when you embark on dry season ugu farming. We have up to 200 large ugu pods for sale. This variety grows very fast and its leaves are broad. Based on management practices, you may start harvesting your ugu after 30 days. Kindly whatsapp or call me on 07037153550 (Tunde) or oderindeolufisayo@gmail.com

badmus54: If the burnt patch is black in color, trim the affected leaves (very effective). U can also add baking soda to reduce the effect. EJULA Farm.. |

Ejulafarm:I really like your spirit! if it were some i can do it all, will not allow any-other persons to connect with others in there tread. learning a lot. contact you soon, planning to plant Ugwu this dry season in a two acre land in Imo state. but i was considering using sack farming, for the retention of water in the sack soil for some time. whats your thought? |

Re: Dry Season Ugu Farming:Scope, Process,SWOT Analysis,And Contribution( Pics,Vids) by Ejulafarm: 11:47am On Jan 04, 2017 |
Market Yes, it is the market season for Ugu. I guess most of you have noticed that the size of ugu being sold in the market is really small compared to what can be obtained doing the raining season. There's this rumor that a lot of people have gone into the farm due to the recession. But from mine finding, we have more internet or virtual farmers than real farmers. The virtual farmers sing a lot of rhythms about farming. Anyway, Farming a perennial crop like plantain is less risky, less demanding and to an extent have a better ROI than short span crops like Ugu and cucumber. This fact is not to deter anyone but to make the point clear that short span crops are really demanding (watering, weeding, application of fertilizers). I went to the market to ascertain how Ugu is being sold and the findings was to an extent very encouraging. One thing is certain, demand is about 10 times more than the supply. But the crux of contention here is having a good bargaining power (Pricing) I took some to the market yesterday and this morning and the orders keep coming in. The pricing was okay, or should I say very okay considering it is the first cut (Actually It has tiny leaves). I sold a bunch for about #200. But with subsequent cut, it should command a price of #300 and above. Note: A bigger bunch than the one I sold in the market (Not even a first cut) is just #100 doing the rainy season. Be Inspired..

restored2016: Have not tried sack farming before but from my findings it is very good in retaining water for the plant root. If you have the resources do both sack and use up a little portion of a land. Then compare the results. I may do sack farming but in very little quantity. Make sure you have the needed workforce for 2 acres. My advice. Ugu is more demanding than a tree crop Be Inspired. |

Challenges WORKFORCE! WORKFORCE!! TECHNOLOGY!!! Technology helps to reduce total needed man hours. Weeding have been a major issue followed by watering. I'm seriously reconsidering increasing the farmlands. Any input or advice will be appreciate. Let's talk this. Presently reading on effective farm management, hoping to finish soon and apply some techniques learned. |

Firefire: The bunch attached, commands a price #300 naira (the leaves should not be tiny)... I realize the market aim to make 3X the amount they bought it for. The Pics attached have a market value of about #600-800 Market location: Agbara.. The price should be about #400-#500 in the mainland like mushin, barracks. Generally places with less farms. Agbara and surrounding have a lot of surrounding farms.. Be Inspired...

Re: Dry Season Ugu Farming:Scope, Process,SWOT Analysis,And Contribution( Pics,Vids) by Ejulafarm: 9:01pm On Jan 04, 2017 |
youngzoologist: I am glad of your progress. More power to your elbow. As regard the measurement I pasted a picture on this thread. Please note that the pricing of this bunch varies with location. As pertaining organic or inorganic, please use the cost effective one. The market women from our discussion are only concerned with broad leaves. You are in this business for profit. Regards 1 Like |

As a beginner I tried ensuring all best methods I can adopt to get it right cos its a group project...the rope was just to help determined where we planted the seed. Its an hectare farm land. Currently, we adopted a manual irrigation method using the PVC with hose pipe AKMoney1: |

@Ejulafarm...Sir I am about to lease a hectare of land for ugu farming. As an expert farmer how much in Nairaland do you think I will need to plant on an entire hectare. Its government land and not fenced. I just need a rough estimate. God bless |
