Please how many of the countries that we fast and pray to japa to, have their economy as measured by GDP, dominated by agriculture? Is it Britain, or America, or Canada, or even Malaysia?

Have you thought about how an individual’s productivity is much higher in manufacturing and services sector than in farming and ranching? Do you realise that greater focus on manufacturing and services sector will drive returns to farmers and ranchers higher?

So while farming is good and necessary, manufacturing and services sector are better for the overall economy.

The biggest asset one can get is land. Nigeria is blessed with this but unfortunately this potential is under utilized. I converted every space within my compound to garden with variety of vegetables, fruits, crops and tubers.

I can't remember when last I buy oranges, pears, banana, plantain, sour sops, pawpaw, ugu, oha etc from market as I have all this within my home some in commercial quantity.

This thread is to encourage everyone to go back to agriculture in small available space within your disposal.
I will be posting pictures to support my claims.
Please share your opinion on this

You get sense. For farming to be profitable we need billions invested into it. Imagine 20 of dangote type of investment worth billions of dollars in agriculture. Not only will this billionaire invest in farming they can also easily attract the value addition chain and also easily fix end market prices hence cutting inflation from the greedy middlemen.
For exam olams farm rice investments of $150 million can meet up 20% of Nigeria rice needs. They also cultivate about 10,000 hectares of land out of the 48,000 cultivated nation wide.
Now imagine having 10 of such investments? Those would not only exceed our local demands but also contributes massively to our exports. This big agricultural investment is what we need now. While it understands millions rely on agriculture and massive commercial firms can render millions jobless and less profitable I think a middle ground has to be established. Either we rely on this small scale farmers who are massively exploited by the middlemen who put far less work and reap huge gain to the detriment of the consumers or we look at the massive big agricultural enterprise who can deprive some locals from such gains but cultivate massively, qualitatively and easily registered price range which is consumer friendly with well coordination and easily taxed trading.

With due respect, crops planted the same time may be harvested the same time, it depends on many factors. You can't expect a corn variety of 80 days maturity to extend its maturity to 85 or 90 days. Living such corn on the field believing it will grow further will not work, it will rather begin to dry because it's reached its maturity terminal point.

When I plant this on my farm in my village, my people ask me why, that one does not plant pawpaw, pawpaw just lalẹwus (Yoruba for, cuts the ground and sprouts out by itself).

I shake my head and show them the ewedu that lalẹwud as I go about my farm spreading ewedu seeds.

When PMB said we should all return to the farm a lot us abuse and reign insult at him. Imagine this is what Nigeria is good at just as US is good at TECH. There will sufficient food in the land and inflow of cash, but we hate that word farming, however we can't do without it products on a daily basis. No be everybody go work for office or government oo. Let return back to farming.

I'm available for partnership from anyone or group.

Once is not their own, they do anyhow. The same thing happened to a friend's fish pond, the guy managing it for him did away with his money, he was unable to recover the whole money from him and that was the end of the business....
