Hello farmers. I applied for land at Ogun Osun River Basin and fortunately i was awarded farm land with the option of choosing between Igbojaye or Ofiki in Oyo state.

Does any one have any idea how these places are. I am skeptical if i should turn down the offer as i was told that there is crisis around these region. I have checked online and checked news and could not find anything of such.

Any farmer in Nairaland around that region, kindly share your experience.

Thank you.

You were given the land for free?

I know several Farmers at Ogun Osun axis of Igbojaye.
The place is peaceful for farming except occasional challenges of Fulani herdsmen eating cassava farms

Thanks for your response. The occasional issues of herdsmen eating cassava is everywhere.
I had the same challenge in my Osun farm, but we later became friends and they willingly pay for damages because of the mutual understanding.
As long as i dont chase down their cows and kill them.
Thats where the issues usually starts.
