There are a lot of ways to participate in farming. You can choose to participate actively or passively. Actively means you own your farm and cultivate yourself. Passive participation means you only invest your money and small time, not your energy.

We all know there is money in Agriculture and most of us don't have the time to farm actively. I want to present an opportunity to you to participate passively and make profit. There are 4 different ways:

1. Buying crops in bulk directly from farmers in rural area where it is cheap and transporting to the city to supply wholesalers and make profit.
2. Buying crops in bulk directly from farmers in rural area where it is cheap and exporting. There is huge profit here and the capital requirement is also huge
3. Becoming an exporting agents. This requires little or no capital investment. All you do here is connecting group of farmers to international buyers or local exporters and get commission. Example, you can form a group of say 10 farmers cultivating cashew. At the harvest period, you can link these farmers to international buyers that will pay high for the cashew and you will get high commission too.
4. You can also set up outgrowers group. By this, you ask farmers to grow a particular crop for you with the guarantee that you will buy from them at harvest. You can do this if you identify a market for a particular crop that is not widely grown. Even though this takes time, the profit that can be realised will be worth it.

Whichever way you are interested in, you need link to farmers. You need access to farmers in different parts of Nigeria, cultivating different crops. To this note, I have compiled a comprehensive list of over 80 farmers by traveling to over four different states in Nigeria (Kaduna, Plateau, Oyo and Kwara State). These farmers are always open to do transaction with serous businessmen. The name, location, contact details and crops cultivated of each farmer are in this list. You can call these farmers on phone and start discussion before deciding to visit them.

Find attached the screen shot of some of the farmers list. If you are interested in the full list, send your full name and phone number to my email: Kamalmustapha19@gmail.com
