Re: Yam Farming A Means Of Livehood In Nigeria by dyoungforester(m): 11:44pm On Dec 26, 2019
First and foremost, know that yam can be harvested twice in a year. And know that no amount of money invested on it can be lost except if you abandon the farm by yourself

first harvesting will take up around June -July, while the second harvest are in December to January
Re: Yam Farming A Means Of Livehood In Nigeria by dyoungforester(m): 12:24am On Dec 31, 2019
although the earlier your planting the better your chances of harvesting twice. most time, it starts from November- December , or December-January, Or January _ February. the Best is November -December to able to meet up with the second harvesting. Alas second harvesting yield more output than the first harvest.
Re: Yam Farming A Means Of Livehood In Nigeria by dyoungforester(m): 12:25am On Dec 31, 2019
Currently we have planted 2,500 yam sets against next year. Although still going to 3000 upward.
Re: Yam Farming A Means Of Livehood In Nigeria by dyoungforester(m): 12:28am On Dec 31, 2019
And note, we have different species of yam in the market based on their economic value.
3 Major ones are:
1. Afuru
2.Efo
3.Oniyere or Iseosi.

And Note: I assure you, there is no amount of money invested on yam farming that is a waste. You will reap all of your investment at least 80% based on my experience. with Good management 96% of return
Re: Yam Farming A Means Of Livehood In Nigeria by dyoungforester(m): 12:33am On Dec 31, 2019
As at Today we have planted over 1500 yam sets aside the initial planted one (900 yam sets) in the Mid November.

Re: Yam Farming A Means Of Livehood In Nigeria by dyoungforester(m): 12:37am On Dec 31, 2019
And anytime I will like quiting the planting due to the stress involved, I always have a flash back of my harvesting this year around June - July. and late September. The income is more than my initial capital.
Re: Yam Farming A Means Of Livehood In Nigeria by dyoungforester(m): 12:44am On Dec 31, 2019
