OLAMIMO12: Very wise advice. When people (especially internet farmers/consultants and all this ebook sellers dat dont av farms) tell you about profit in agric, they will paint a very colourful picture for you and when u rush into it and reality sets in at harvest time, the person will be disappointed and frustrated. They will not give you the reality. It happens alot in fish farming and dats why alot of pple rush into fish farming but they end up rushing out of it so fast. |
Re: My Backyard Cucumber With Pictures by billyG(m): 11:59am On May 09, 2015 |
how do they cal this studded variety |
Re: My Backyard Cucumber With Pictures by Nobody: 9:15am On May 10, 2015 |
@SOLOXAM pls can you just expanciate on how MANUAL SEEDER and TSUKILL works and operated |
Re: My Backyard Cucumber With Pictures by Soloxam(m): 11:55am On May 10, 2015 |
Here are view of the advantage:
1. It reduce the numbers of worker needed to be hire for
planting. With the planter the you need just one person to
perform the duties of 4-5 labourer.
2. It makes the work faster, with less stress.
3. It reduce waste of seeds, as it plant with high precision.
4. Using the planter made u have uniform germination as
the planting deep is uniform.
5. You get uniform spacing within and btw the rows, here
by gives u room to calculate ur plant population.
Expect more soon. |

Tsukill is an insecticide which attract and kill a destructive
insect called fruits fly. These fly are very destructive that if
not put in check/control will damage 45% of your harvest.
The life cycle of these destructive insect start from laying
eggs, the eggs will not survive if layed where it can not feed
on. These insects find/locate a younger fruit to lay her eggs
so that the eggs can feed from ur fruits, hence the eggs
develop/change into maggot and the maggots causes
great damage to our fruits.
Don't be surprise in most cases when u open ur orange,
tomatoes, cucumber, watermelon,pawpaw you find
maggot inside, it the hand work of the destructive fruit fly.
With Tsukill in ur farm this is what it dose.
Tsukil will attract the fruit fly and kill the fly within 3min.
At flowering stage,get blocks of tsukill, put the block inside
a perforated container as shown below, hang it in a
strategies locations in your farms. The tsukill will attract
the destructive fly, as the entres the container, within
some view min the flys will drop dead..
ADDVATAGE OF TSUKILL.
It does not required any extra labour as the substance it
hang @ a location, hence no repeated spraying say weekly
or every 2 weeks.
If you have a plantion like citrus or papaya, I wonder how it
will be continent to spray against this insect as it will
require u to climb the trees before appling the insecticide,
with Tsukill u done need to bother yourself climbing, just
hang it at a location the fly will come them self and get
killed.
This day when every one mind what He/she eat, with
Tsukill the consumers who eat ur product are safe because
u don't need to spray any chemical substance on your
fruits in preventions against the insects.
Tsukill as well reduce cost of labour/production...
With Tsukill, you eat safe........... |
