I'm currently running a project in a village here in Niger state that will keep me here for a while, one unique thing I noticed about this people is that about 90% of their population are into farming. particularly yam which is very cheap compare to towns and urban areas.

if you are interested I could help you buy and get it delivered anywhere in Nigeria.

also the market prices fluctuates Hence, I'll be updating on current prices per 100 pieces of yam I.e one kwarya as they do call it here.

Tomorrow is another market day, the farmers have started bringing their yam today monday and some of them often sell to the middle men I.e dillalai as they call them here at cheap prices. therefore, any buyer that is buying on Tuesday tomorrow may be buying from the dillalai not the original farmers.

note that: the price am going to be updating is the price at which the farmers sells to the dillalai who in turn sell to gain profit.

I will update the price (per 100 pieces and size) tomorrow.

Will the farmers be there tomorrow or just the middlemen?

sirfarouk:

of course they will, in fact some farmers do prefer selling directly while some prefer the middle men to avoid delays.

Am sorry for not updating last week, I have been really busy.

The price this week was a bit higher compare to the previous weeks, today a kwarya of yam that used to go for 14 to 15k was sold between 22 to 23k, and the ones that goes for 28k to 30k per kwarya were sold between 38 to 40k also the biggest sizes that went for 50k per kwarya is now sold at 55 to 60k.

The high in price is as a result of the Christmas season but its going to stabilize buy January.

been busy lately, I base in sarkin pawa market but there are other yam markets like chibani, garatu, gwada, Kuchi and the rest.

Nice thread.

Do you know the average weight of each yam. Will be nice if we can get the cost per kg

Hello Gideon, good job!

So, like how many kwarya will make up one full truck and cost of transportation down to Lagos?

Thanks.

sorry for the late response, i have been so busy lately which is why i hardly update the thread. As for your question, i deal with J5 bus and there is small and big J5.

small j5 can carry maximum of 8 to 9 kwarya while the big j5 can carry 11 to 12 kwarya all depending on the size of yam. each kwarya using j5 bus is N7000 to N8000 depending on the size of yam and its negotiable.

But transporting yam using truck to Lagos mile 12 is more cheaper, each kwarya using truck is N3000 to N4000 depending on the size of the truck like the one in the pics above. Regards

I have been so busy lately, yam is basically cheap now and this is the best time to buy and store yam.

What is current price and transport cost to Warri, Delta State.

Yams are presently cheap in Warri, the Aboki who sells in Wheel barrow sells a big size of yam for 350 to 400 naira.

I don't know how profitable the business would be for me considering the cheapness of yams in Warri at the moment.

bigiyaro:

yam can be stored for a specific period of time. so far i have deliver to only few people in lagos and i don't know how they sell it there, all i do is to buy and deliver. But one thing i know for sure is that those guys are making it there.

How much is yam going for now?

The issue is how much can this yam be resold and the profitability

You can make a lot even though you think the yam seems cheap to you in warri, you can even store it and sell when its cost. Here most of the people i supply to are from Kaduna. In fact 40% of dealers in the market are from Kaduna state.
