Nairaland is to share ideas. True. But must you share ideas to mislead other people?
Not everyone can gamble away their money on the farm. Offcourse you planted tomato but how successful are you with it?
What I advise is you need to up your practical knowledge before you can train others.
Simple suggestion
Regards

Most people has lost their hard earned money in agriculture because they follow this type of cheap write ups.
I merely suggest you need to up your game in tomato planting. I have been a victim and I have learnt expensively.
I don't give a damn, I will always speak out when I see misleading post.
I see you are just gambling with tomato farm. There is nothing bad in that but get it right before embarking on training.
"Imagining you saying people should do tomato during rainy season".
Even novice farmers knows tomato abhor water.
There are lot of such in your write up.
I am not about pointing fingers but I am about being truthful.

An acre of land gives u 20000heaps, hectare give 2.2 acre. I used heaps. Employ 2 benue people (igedee) for 200,000naira yearly. Dey start work by early February, they start d clearing till middle of may. U prepare planting ur tomatoes in batches. First batch nursery should come up in the middle of april, and second should be by may and third should be by june etc. Depending on d quantity of ur land. Why is it advisable to be in batch ?
-Tomatoes has no specific market price. U will be able to meet all d market periods.
-harvesting of tomatoes needs time. E.g on an acre of tomatoes ,if u hav gud yields, 10people must harvest for d day. We harvest here every 5days.
-wen ur tomatoes start flowering, nw replant on d land wit plantain suckers.
Note: D 2 benue guys and u will do all d clearing heaping weeding and adding of fertiliser if ur land is weak. Excluding harvesting.
After all dis, at worse scenario, on an hectare, u have 1.6m on tomatoes and u hav like 2200 plantain growing left.
Next i will talk on d type of tomatoes varieties, diseases and the soil composition for tomatoes.
Is it an hectare of tomatoe u farm?how many ulahs(cluster of heaps) make an hectares.In which state are u farming?
