It'll be A: I feel goat farming is less stressful and does not require special skill and attention like a poultry. The risk ain't pretty high. C: Vegetable farm because there will always be a market for your produce, no matter the location. You can also sub-divide the plot with a fence to prevent the goats from eating up the vegetables. 1 Like |

Mizwisdom: Agriculture is time consuming You have to feed them thrice daily You have to pack poop If you hire one or two hands, you can fold your hands while work gets done |

Mizwisdom: Set your eyes on starting first. Quarter plot dedicated to poultry housing. The other spaces for movement, storage of poop etc. A carpenter that has handled this before should be contacted so with dimensions you'll be told what materials you need to buy. Focus on setting up the house first. This is the first thing. Imagine it costs 250k to get the housing together which can be done in just ten days. The next thing to do is seek for day old chicks seller, the seller will provide you with vaccination program that will be employed in raising them the first few weeks along with other details you should follow. 1 Like |

Mizwisdom: So first the housing Next planning Number of chicks Cost of feeding, you need to have an estimation from day old till maturity Then heat source for day old chicks Plan medications with the help of the chicks seller or veterinarian Take it one step at a time, and you're good |
Re: Please Answer This Question Giving Details by Mizwisdom(f): 9:03pm On Sep 13, 2019 |
healthserve: You will meet abundant favor this month. Any specifications for materials to be used for the housing? |
Re: Please Answer This Question Giving Details by healthserve(m): 3:41am On Sep 14, 2019 |
Mizwisdom: Its best done by a professional who would not just identify the right materials, but quantities and cost. Roofing sheets, planks, rice sacks, nets, drums for water storage and feed storage , pallets are some of the things you'll need 1 Like |
