If you don't mind could you explain the bolded further? I am trying to put myself in your shoes. You read an article and you decided to move to Iseyin just like that?
Did you think of where you were going to stay?
Did you think of how you would buy a cow, or who would buy a cow from?

Asin what was going through your mind when you decided to go to Iseyin and start a diary farm?

FC WAMCO a private multinational..single handedly revived the nigerian dairy industry with this milk collection programme they invested billions of naira..

we cannot in the south sit on our keyboards and demonise innocent cattle with unscrupulous owners when we ourselves are not making moves to enter into the cattle business

this was my my view three years ago when i saw a similar article about wamco in iseyin.. so i took the plunge and moved to iseyin to start a cattle and dairy farm

so i have witnessed this system.. i have learnt about cows.. milked my own cow (yes by myself) and i have received cash for my milk via transfer from fc wamco.. i have seen the hygienic mill collection room where farmers , both fulani and non fulani..bring in their milk

southerners need to start building ranches and cashing out on this milk and beef money. we can learn like i did.. i have learnt so much from my move to iseyin..

i was introduced to improved pastures by the company.. now i provide seeds and suckers of improved pasture grass to other cattle farmers.. check my posts if you are interested

also my five acre purpose built dairy farm facility in iseyin is up for sale.. it has borehole farm staff house and cow house/ milking area. never used before..it is going for 7million naira.. call 0706 346 3851 if you are a serious buyer..reason for sale is i am expanding to oyo town on my own family land ..

i never used the farm because God blessed me with another 6 acres in front of my rented apartment so i moved my cows there and took care of them myself..no fulani involved.. i have been sucking up cow knowledge everyday like a sponge. i would advise anyone with good capital and love of farming to invest in this.. cheers all

i made the decision to move and use my rented flat and start with 2 cows.. so i made sure i rented a flat with a big yard .. My decision to move opened up new funds and more land than i could even use.. it was a leap of faith i guess.. what i had on hand when i left lagos is a small fraction of what is on ground now

octavian:


Bros na Iseyin or Oyo Alaafin you be?

lol.. na afrika man i be

I'm interested, my concern is how get reliable persons to manage the farm because I'm on a paid employment far away from Iseyin even though I'm from the town.

ok sir.. you can call or whatsapp.. its a beautiful profession

This is ideal.

How I wish the whole of Nigeria will have peace and harmony.

thanks my kween.. amen

A big leap of faith. Well done. I guess its something we can all learn, many of us myself included, need to take that leap of faith. We have all we need but we keep giving ourselves excuses.

Yoruba people don't have any issue or problem with anybody as long as you don't disturb our peace or trying to be smart by half.
Meanwhile,open grazing remains banned and we have no land for any RUGA or NLTS and nobody can take over the control of our water ways and resources. It won't happen,lae lae !

Anybody that is ready to behave like a normal human being with high regard for human lives and sanctity of it,respect for host communities' traditions,norms and values, and know their limits in our land, is welcome to Oodua land.

Southerners should engage more in agriculture. Ever since this farmers/herders crises became a national issue, I've not yet heard (I stand to be corrected) any southerner taking the initiative to invest in pastoral farming by buying or leasing land for ranching.
It's one thing to say land should not be given to the Fulani (which I agree with) but if the southerners are not ready to invest in agriculture, there wouldn't be any choice, but to give land to the Fulani.

Southerners should invest by BUYING OR LEASING LAND... and at the end of your write up, you said, "there wouldn't be any choice, but to GIVE LAND to the Fulani"

Am I missing something here, Sir... Can't they buy or lease the land also? I really hope it's BUY/LEASE that you meant when you wrote that GIVE

Pls I will like to know more about this business.09013509663 whatsapp

I don't just know why Ipobians hate cattle rearing and farming like cancer. Like they don't consume meat or diary products. Let's invest in cattle business instead of fighting ourselves cause of cattle.

yes insecurity is an important issue.. thats why the company invested heavily in the sw i think..it shouldnt stop one from farming.. with good security measures and Gods grace.. people are out there doing big things in farming

Hi Spinna,

quite an audacious initiative on your part. I'm sure many business-minded Nairalanders would be interested, if they could receive guidance on how to go about it.

I suggest you open a thread specifically to provide such guidance. Best wishes for good success in all your endeavours!

What is your advice for anyone who is willing to take that leap of faith, in terms of budget for accommodation, land and the cows itself and other things necessary...

This is amazing.

While I was with FC WAMCO, a litre of milk was N70, today it is N180.

In case you don't know, Nigeria's milk production was only able to meet 3% of milk demand in the country. That is why WAMCO still import from Holland. However, the Dairy Development Programme was a great initiative that is mutually beneficial to both the host communities and the company.

I am hoping to find my way back to FC WAMCO. That company is one of the best you can work in. STANDARD HIGH, STAFF EXTREMELY TAKEN CARE OF.
