5 Top Benefits Of Cattle Colony by Adieza(m): 4:32pm On Jan 24, 2018 |
WHAT IS CATTLE COLONY? The idea behind the Cattle Colonies is to cater for the needs of cattle herders in terms of availability of resources to take care of their cattle while avoiding unnecessary clashes and tussles over economic resources such as land and water between them and farmers. Cattle colonies are expected to be large expanses of land procured by the Federal Government, in collaboration with States (already 16 States have indicated interest in this), where water, grass and security would be provided to cattle herders who would in turn pay for rent and other services provided by the Government. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CATTLE COLONY AMD RANCHING 1. A Cattle Colony is bigger in size than a Ranch, and caters for more cattle. A cattle colony can cater for as many as 40 ranchers. 2. While a ranch is provided for by the Herders, a Colony is provided for by the Government who collect rent from the herders to use these facilities. The reason for this is that ranching is a Capital intensive venture and cannot be embarked on by rural subsistent low earning herders, if ranching were to be made compulsory, it would be hard for rural herdsmen to comply with it. 3. In Cattle Colonies the Federal Government collaborates with the States to provide these lands (note that lands, by virtue of the Land Use Act are vested in the Governors of the State), water and security, while in ranches the herders have to provide this for themselves. BENEFITS OF HAVING CATTLE COLONIES 1. Safety of lives and property and a drastic reduction in farmers and herders clashes 2. Cattle produce healthier beef when they are kept in colonies, and also produce more milk 3. Farmers do not have to worry about the safety of their crops and thus more production is ensured for the farmers, which means more economic activity in the agriculture sector 4. Cattle colonies would put a stop to cattle being rustled by thieves and terrorists 5. It would become easier to identify criminals who either masquerade as herdsmen or are herdsmen who commit murderous crimes and destruction. http://www.agricinfo.com/2018/01/5-top-benefits-of-cattle-colony.html?m=0 10 Likes 6 Shares

Are we still on this? The Entire Northern states have the landmass to accommodate these cattle colonies or whatever they are called. This can also prove to be an avenue to generate more IGR for states with low internal revenue. The entire South has rejected cattle colony!!!!! 172 Likes 7 Shares |

Okay Good then why don't you confine your cattle colonies in the endless Sambisa forest or Falgore Forest which both covers enough space as large as 5 Nigerian states and has enough space , vegetation and water sources to hold over 600 million cows plus it has the right weather suitable for Fulani cattle and is free of Tse Tse Flies which Fulani cattle don't like .... Please colony or colonies please make sure you leave the Northern Christian minorities, the middle belt and entire south out of you nonsense colony. 105 Likes 6 Shares |

Cattle colonies? On whose land? In which state? The problem with this country is that we just want to be spoon feed with everything. FG must do everything. These Fulani herdsmen that some people are advocating Cattle colonies for are actually rich enough to cater for themselves, to buy ranches and settle down for good instead of destroying farmer's means of livelihood. BTW, is Nigeria not already one big cattle colony? Or what do you call a country where cattle actually have more rights than people? 44 Likes 3 Shares |

You can't take people's lands and give it to private investors for free. These cattle are owned by private individuals, let them buy the land they want to use for their ranch. It's not rocket science. 20 Likes 2 Shares |

Every nonsense you wrote are disadvantages of having a cattle colony. Why is it so hard for them to purchase land for their cattle if they do not have an hidden agenda. Imagine Miyatti Allah saying they want 5000 hectares of land in all state for cattle colony. What is the population of Fulani and their overall cattle? We know their plans 25 Likes 3 Shares
