Please make sure you have adequate knowledge before venturing into the farm. Farming is not easy as it is been proclaimed. Learn and practise first before committing your funds

Do you know of dairy farms in the South west region?

lanre2009:

Good job madam. Was all this grown within the one month training?

The farm is a continuous process.
The training has been ongoing since May.
Trainee comes and do their own practical.
They learn from the previously planted and still transplant or sow their own crops.
What you see is at different stages in the farm.
The tomatoes and cabbage has been planted by previous trainees.

Pavore9:
