Pilinpaperzgrup:


Ok! Come to the winning side i love actions, lets win more together! I just sent you a mail, i dont understand what you mean by where is the planting season Pls rephrase your question

Pilinpaperzgrup:
For maximum land usage, i applied the closet planting of 3per pit technique which is the highest and most commercial technique. If i harvest the same time with farmers who used the traditional technique (1per pit) for a given land space, i will be making three times the profit when compared also i will have an hedge on price command in the market #simplemaths #realhustla #getmoremoney #letsgo!!!!!!

Yes, that is the 100 million naira technique uniform growth and uniform harvest but hope u have logistics? If you want to learn more abt it kindly drop your email for coaching discussion and training. 3 hectares are big numbers talking, hope you have the finance to kick-start and maintain it? #teamlove #bignumbers #letsgo!!!!!!!!

Bro, on logistics i do but i''m trying to get a better job(b4 service) to finance the project. pleasureosondu@gmail.com

Sorry but i dont understand. Do u mean NYSC?
Yes.

pleasureosondu:


Bro if you want to venture into plantain farming, you truly need to have a start-up capital since you have 8acres already, u can start with 2acres with time you can expand, during expansion you will only need to spend money on land clearing because you already have suckers. If you have a plan like this; setting up the farm b4 going for NYSC, jst know that after POP you entering the labour market as a CEO because then you will focus on expansion. You need to do brainstorming now bro

I agree but my mine catch is the number of plantain i what to harvest at intervals. After enough googling, it seems that 1 hectare would contain a maximum of 1000suckers, spaced at 3 by 2m. is that correct? I hope u dnt mind if i ask some questions.Bro, Na d hussle i dey so but i jst cant afford to make mistakes. Your ans will determine how many acres(hectares) i would use as startup. N 2ndly, can u upload a pic of d pit u were referring to?

teejan:
Number please

How many plots do you think makes 1 hectare? If you choose to go by what you have googled its your choices but note that i am targeting people who are interested in my technique. Since na the hustle you dey, continue to dey do am as you don dey do am.

I dnt no abt d required number of plots but d surveyor stated dat 2.5 acres makes 1 hectare(not 2 certain abt dat anyway) n d only tin i hv decided is to own a plantain farm bt i leave d methods of reaching dis goal, wide open.My main concern is attaining uniform growth n harvest, thus my interest in d technique u ar offering. Am nt in the habit of making criticisms but if u can tk some tym 2 explain d benefits n challenges(if any) that is involved in d application of ur technique, i would really appreciate it. If this involves coming 2 ur farm 2 c 4 myself,den d pleasure is mine. I jst want 2 avoid "stories that touches d heart".By d way, my farm is located along d Benin/Akure highway, after NIFOR bt i spend much of my tym away.

Today Mr kayode whom have been reading this thread visited my farm site. He saw for himself everything that i have been talking about. He even took some pix, pls upload them so people will see. Thank you...#moneytalk

kayodei:


Yes. He was right. I was there to see things myself. I have to confess, what I saw was mind blowing. I wish you were there to see things yourselves.
The plantain stems are disease free. The 3 per pit technique is working.
I am not trying to sweet-talk this. A visit to the farm yourselves will confirm all of this.

I will upload the pixs I took at the farm site today.
