Goodevening to you all, hope u had a good day. Please am seeking advice from experts in this line of agribusiness or any1 with knowledge about this subject. I have this great and innovative idea on how to establish a cattle farm and it generates money on a monthly basis using this unique model. My question is this: can this type of business thrive in the South South. That is, does the weather and climatic conditions of the place support this type of farming. Please your advice and observations are highly highly welcomed.thanks |

KayCee92: I deduced that you have just made only the financial model for the business. It is a good step. The next step is you are trying to check the management of the breed in a tropical climatic condition. Hmmm Sir, I am going to be honest with you, just forget the financial whatever model you have. You cannot use the financial model in the whatever region the breed is coming from to use it as a template for a new climatic condition. This is the mistake many make. I remember that one state government brought in a special breed from Europe and had to put them in an Air-conditioned room. Lolz. That funny set of people also used the financial statement of the temperate area or whatever area the breed were coming from to project income here. But they have forgotten the place they brought the breeds from does not need spending too much money on expensive diesel to power their system. Also, the place is naturally cold and they just need to turn heater when it is exrremely cold, and when it is getting to summer. Maybe 4 months in 12 months. Lol. They brought them here and had to power the cooling system 24/7, 365 days every year.  Foolish people. No one understands what you are doing here. You didnt even mention the name of the breed. I think you may not even want to mention it so that some bad belle people will not beat you in the game. So, we always think. Right? So, how do you want experts to advise you? You gave no info about what you want to rear. It is like saying I have birds I want to rear, can it survive in South South? Of course many can but with different techniques. Boliers are managed with difference method to how one manages those local, tough, strong breeds. And the cost of rearing the two breeds differ. I think you are O - Y- O. (On Your Own). Way out: Look at your breed again. Look at all the characteristics it has. Ask yourself if it can survive whereever you want to rear them. Then do pilot. One male, one female. See how it goes. Be ready to spend on pilot. It is the pilot you will use to make a new financial plan for the business. There is no short cut. If you can give more info here and the name of the breed (s), fine. Perhaps, you can get more help. Maybe someone has done it, or is doing it. If you decide to make it your top secret, it is your sole responsibility to do it. And after getting it right, you are in cash bro. Best of luck. |

Thanks for ur candid opinion Fluentinfor. But am not hidding anything about this. Cattle business is a very old agric venture. I can't possibly hide anything abt that. However I have made changes on how to keep it and how to make it less cumbersome. The innovation is new but one which will change the way people do this particular business. That is only what I won't share. But d business is free for all to go into. What I just want is for people to advice on weather d climate is good for such. Or the breed that will likely do well in under such climatic conditions. Thanks again for ur response bro. |

KayCee92: There is nothing bad in keeping trade or business secret. It is allowed. And which the bolded statement is. What makes you think giving you away the breed's name is not more valuable than the model you have? Hmmmm. Business is competition bro. You give out to take. Sure, I agree with you, it is a free thing for anyone to go in there. But I have just highlighted a vital point. To you, perhaps your model is the joker, but to the other man or woman, the breed and management is the joker. Both of you do not want to release the info. So, which way forward? 1 Like |

the major problem is tse-se fly bro, am also thinking of something similar, but the breed should be our local breeds here, have started talking with my Fulani friends for more information |
| Re: Can Cattle Breeding Thrive In The South South by KayCee92(m): 1:53pm On Mar 26, 2018 |
Chidonc: Exactly,also came across this as one of the major problems facing this venture in that area.can we talk privately bro? |
| Re: Can Cattle Breeding Thrive In The South South by KayCee92(m): 1:56pm On Mar 26, 2018 |
fluentinfor: The way forward is that I can't just say it in a forum like this.....at least to avoid being discouraged. But I could pitch it to the right people and ear. More privately. |

Chidonc: Stick with the White Fulani, thats what is available in the South West here. Sokoto, Adamawa Gudali breed are not readily available from my observation, you may need to source from the North Our local breed will do just fine in SS with good cattle mgt. |
