its very easy to market them. u can take them to market or sell it to those roasting corn by the road side. I have checked one market close to my school and demand for corn there is high same with d price.
well I plan to cultivate it next session becos we are rounding up our second semester exam 23rd of these month and we are vacating the school hostel after exam, by God grace I will cultivate d farm by September when we resume and am going to plant cassava because its easy to maintain and it's not going to affect my studies. I would av love to plant pumpkin but it requires intensive care of which I don't av d time for.

Damn!. Did i just hear u say take it to the market to sell?. Lolz. Mehn. I can't imagine my self going to a market place to sell corn. Ok. I will go wit the second option. Sell it those street women roasting corn.

I intend using paid labour. I.e pay people to cultivate the farmland for me while i nurse the plant and do the harvesting my self. Can i still make a reasonable profit from the sells of the corn even after paying for the labour?

why not do mixed cropping if you want to use labourers? you can plant casava along side with d corn and u can pay the laborers and balance it with d money gotten from d sale of corn. so that ur cassava will be ur gain and u don't run at lost. becos paying labourers just to cultivate corn might not be profitable but it also depend on the size of farm. so its advisable u just pay for the preparation of d land, I believe you can plant by ur self with accurate spacing and maintain the crop as it grows to minimize cost of input.

I am still an undergrad, in my finals though.

OAU is just one of the schools that allows you to hone your entrepreneurial tendencies.

As for me, I act as middleman between buyers and Sellers, like OLX.

I know a lil bit of phone repair ,so I do repair phones for peeps and charge token.

And yes, I buy things like gas cylinders, cupboards phones, anything I know will be of benefits to students and subsequently sell. It has always been fun.

It hasn't been easy mehn but niqqur's gotta survive.

Wow. Nice idea. i have a parcel of land alloted to me by my parents. they land has since laid bare for quit a long time now as i didn't have an idea wat to do wit it. i'm a 200L student too anyway.

i will like to know if you don't mind :
1.After you harvest how exactly do u plan to make money out of the harvested maize?.. sell them i suppose.
Do you have a customer target?
2.whats your plan for the farmland after these planting season?

i wouldn't want to rush into cultivating the farmland and then abandon it after these planting season.
Rainy season is when u can cultivate the land because u don't hv borehole or well

I've browsed through nairaland searching for information that would give me a hint as per the things I can do to be financially independent and control my life. I'll be finishing school this year from the faculty of education albeit still young. I would love to get myself a degree in a professional course like pharmacy. I don't intend to be sponsored by my parents but myself this time. I'm just clueless as to what I can do to achieve that feat. If I should decide to work with my degree in education, the options would be limited to teaching which isn't what I want at this time.

Your kind contributions would be greatly appreciated.

To the pharmacy students and licenced pharmacists out there, I understand how time is of immense importance to having a good pharmacy degree, however, I'd be needing your opinion as it relates to time management in my case. Do you think it's a feat I can pull? Thanks


Mods, you may be helping some other person out there get an education.
you can start teaching so you will earn some money.

Can that PC GIVE do research analysis on engineering projects? And which state exactly? Cuz where I reside even common software like solidworks na work to find am.

I dont really know if it can do Engineering analysis. But if Engineering analysis involves the use of OLS regression analysis, ECM, Cointegration, ADF, etc, then, it can give you what you want.

I reside in PH and I have Eview v.7, SATA 12, Mintab v.16, PC GIVE. I also help people who want to do their research analysis on Accountancy, Banking and Finance, Economics, and all the social science courses, managment courses, etc. irrespective of where they are. We only communicate via phone calls and email.

Send me your project topics, chapters 1 - 3 and I will handle the data, analysis and chapters 4-5 and send back to you in a jiffy.

Call today if you need one 08068735953.

Depending on the course you study, you can do research analysis for people. When I was an undergraduate, I discovered that many final years in my dept would seek the services of outsiders to do their analysis for them using any of the analytical softwares e.g. Eviews, Sata, Minitab, PC Give. I quickly bought PC GIVE and EViews which the lecturers allowed (N150 each), installed it and learnt how to use it, interpret results and present it online.

Each analysis I do costs between 10k to 50K. It takes only about 1 day to do an analysis of 50k. I took care of myself till I left school.

underscores why it's good to have a skill before enrolling in the University. I never had a skill. Reason I've been so much dependent upon my parents for EVERYTHING that is required in school. I do feel ashamed seeing some colleagues delve into hustle with their respective skills and they make some dough. They enjoy school because they get anything they want.
