You are a good person @ Op.

I will suggest you start a piggery for the person. It takes 2 years before the profit comes and the learning curve is not very steepy compared to other animal husbandry. Disease and death of animal is not common and theft is not common too.

Other agroventures can build on this foundation as money and experience and connections increase.

All these is dependent on community acceptance of piggery enterprise. For instance I can't advice you to do this in core north.

I just hope you understand me.

Massive respect.

Yes piggry is good , a fellow started with 2 pregnant pis last year & in less than a year it has inceased to 15 pigs. Yet he bought mixed breed of local & aggric which did not do very well in terms of number of piglet they had.

Cow fatten is also a good one because if you buy a calf at N55k & feed for 8 months you will be selling at N110k at least.
Simmilarly ram fatten is also good if you know the biz well.

To the people who suggested piggery as oppose to poultry, does this mean poultry layers or broilers are less profitable than piggery. Likewise, is poultry more risky in terms of mortality, disease etc than piggery.
