Don't dare go to farm without taking time to understudy a cassava farmer for minimum of a year.

Yes.

Minimum of a year

Anything less will be throwing your money down the drain.

Forget the internet advice, suggestion and guidelines.
Reality is quite different

ogun state.
from experience, that amount is inadequate to do cassava on two acres of farmland. land preparation alone can take half of that money depending on how bushy the place is. my advice, get someone to look at your farm site and advice you appropriately.

market for cassava in ogun state is inexhaustible. many companies from your state goes as far as oke-ogun in Oyo State to buy cassava for their factory needs not to talk of garri making by local women.
my advice is that do a background check of potential markets within your vicinity to know when it will appreciate in value, that will inform you when to plant and what variety to plant.

I see you thanks everybody but choose to ignore what I wrote.

My word will keep ringing in your end by the time you get the result.

Starting an acre of cassava farm from clearing will cost you not less than N400,000 in Ogun State.

Plant maize in conjunction with cassava
The maize if well manage and fertilized can cater for 90- 100% of your total cost of production then the cassava will now b ur profit. That is what I did in osun
