willybaby: Farm 15 is doing real good, From your experience what's the best practice for weed management ? I'll be planting next week too as a total beginner , would love to learn best weed management practice before and after planting. Thanks. I already got my Maize seeds Oba Super 4 (Yellow Maize) and expecting my cassava stems next week too. Your professional advice is highly welcomed.

CallMeNJay:when it comes to weed management using herbicides I think a combination of pre and post mergent herbicides will leave your crops happy.. you might choose to go organic by manually weeding but this to me is expensive and more stressful.. What are the features of oba super 4 |
Re: My Cassava Farming Dairy As A Total Beginner by CallMeNJay: 8:23pm On Aug 23, 2020 |
willybaby: Almost same as Oba 98 but the kernel colour is yellow and tolerant to most maize diseases , From findings the recommended for yellow maize was Oba super 6 with higher yield and fortified with vitamin A , this wasn't available so i got Oba Super 4 . What's your recommended pre and post mergent herbicides ? and how do i apply them ? |

CallMeNJay:sorry sir,I really can't be of much help to be sincere I don't know much about maize cultivation, I added maize to my cassava due to persuasion.. An important advice forget specification of seeds, high yield this, early maturity that, its how you take care of your crop that count maize needs many things |

Re: My Cassava Farming Dairy As A Total Beginner by Ameboperoo(m): 8:22am On Aug 29, 2020 |
willybaby:Then on the issue of dried vs fresh harvest, It depends on the price of fresh cob in your area. I carried out an experiment by shelling a number of cobs to fill one mudu of 300, it would have been fetch more if sold fresh. Only if you can keep the corn till around April the following year and you might spend more on storage/preservation. Also, when you harvest fresh and cut off the stands, the cassava tends to do better than when you leave in the stands to dry in a mixed cropped farm like yours. 1 Like |
