It has been a while but the need to share burns.

As we are heading to the dry season, many who lean towards cropping have their thoughts circling around the availability of water. Anyone who wants to run a profitable crop farming business should not be dependent on rainfall because you need to plant all year round and harvest all year round......it is very possible!

Access to water 365 days a year is very central thus harvesting all year round. Don't be a crop farmer that is rain-dependent, you cheat yourself. Everything is possible if you push along the extra mile.

Now to other things. Going through different threads, I read where questions such as:

Will cucumber grow in Edo State?
Will Chilli thrive in Imo State?

Some years back while working in Awka, I experimented growing cucumber in a perforated old plastic bucket which was kept at the balcony, I did get a good harvest and more importantly the conviction that things are possible, unlearning irrational beliefs.

Exotic crops like strawberry is very possible outside areas like Plateau state because knowledge overrides myths.

Somewhere in the southwest within the next 10months, organic strawberries will be harvested in tonnes...#codedgist!

I planning for dry season. I've even bought a pumping m/c. But my challenge now is to rent land close to a river in anambra. If anyone can help me pls do, I'll reward u with harvest.

Pavore, I assume you're no longer in Kenya.

My desired cabbage seeds are mostly in Kenya, yet it seems rather difficult to buy seeds from the country.

African countries put all manner of barriers up against intra African trade.

I can easily order seeds from China, the US etc but from Kenya, South Africa or Burkina Faso, it's so difficult.

The seed I want is Fabiola cabbage. Do you have any leads please?

Nairobi is still my base but frequently travelling outside Kenya. The easiest way to get seeds from Nairobi to Lagos is giving it to someone who is flying down to Lagos. Have a Kenyan who is flying into Nigeria by the third week of October to set up a farm.

Great.

Would you be kind enough to help facilitate the process through the gentleman? I'd be happy to send the money in advance.

Can I reach you by email. Thanks

DeLaRue:

All year farming and thinking outside the box is key.
