Maize is good but planting indigenous vegetables (Ugu, water leaf, green and red amaranth, chochorus-ewedu.) using effective irrigation systems is the real deal this dry season. All you need do is start as much as your money can manage successfully and smile every week!

@Kalusam, please I want to be direct as possible and sorry for that. How much can 100 seeds of ugu generate every month. I have small space as well as little budget for farming it besides the fact that ugu seeds are slightly expensive this period. Thanks for your insight in advance.

The candid and direct answer is this...nobody knows for certain! Successful Ugu farming is based on proper watering and shading during the fist few weeks, effective pruning and subsequent routine maintenance, manuring weeding and effective watering.

Thinking of planting cassava next month. I will like to know which crop i can mix with it on the same land without irrigation.

please kalu I was thinking of maize farming, from sometime in november; are saying it may not be such a good idea

@munzy14 my fear has always been whether or not the crops are safe. I've always wondered if the locals will not steal from the farm

u also involve a security services.to ward them off.

Please dont grow anything without irrigation, especially maize! They will all die off with the scorching sun and lack of water and even if they manage to survive they will have stunted growth and poor/unmarketable yield!
