Lord hugo, God bless you for this information, I had to take my time to read all I have missed before the thread made the. FP. I just concluded the reading because I have been on the street all day. But to those critic who are in hurry to seek redress, I think it is better to read the whole thread before any question he said A-Z and u expect all those to be address before we get to Z. I am very happy to come across this thread and while I am still trying to raise fund for my poultry, I can start with this. But I believe I should start with planting pawpaw. 3 Likes |

Well done sir Snail Lord, by the grace of Almighty God, you will be my snail consultant next year 2016 when the rainy season starts. I am trying to gather funds to build my pen before that time, so when its set, i will buy the young snails and place them in their new home to start breeding. God keep us. |

Good job @OP My question is this. If you incorporate snails into an integrated set up farming other crops e.g vegetables,etc do the snails not tend to attract snakes ? |

omonnakoda: With a solidly built perimeter fence (note- not the land fencing) around your snail beds, reptiles and other small animals will be locked out effectively. |

Do you cover it from rain and sun? Can't the excess sun and rain be harmful to it? |

Hello lordhugo, My major challenge is security if i am to get a farm land for snail and veggie farming. Please how do i solve this because farmlands for sale are kind of out of the city. Because i will like to be close to the farmland. I presently reside in lagos but i am considering moving to ogun state for this. Which city is close to a farmland for sale and i guess i have to look for money to fence a part of the acre for snail.. Please i am very new to farming in general. I am pasting this here so others can learn and also as per your instruction.. |

desykay: i assure you that getting 'good soil' for snails is pretty easy. If it can grow crops, if it is not clayey, if it is free of stones....YOU CAN USE IT! |

lexicot: Security is a key area. These steps should mitigate theft... 1. Construction of Sandcrete blocks fencing (not 'inner pest perimeter fence') . Normal land fencing with access gate. 2. provision of housing for farmhand/s on site. (They won't just be staff, they are also security because they live in the farm). 3. Proper stock taking. (Even though you might not be 'correct', taking stock will deter staff from pilfering). 1 Like |
