Sometime in 2019 I made up my mind to go into rice business of which, I started by buying processed rice from mills, print my own bags and bagged it then supplied it to markets in one of the big cities in the south east, the profit margin was cool but the time it took for me to recover my money from those I supplied discouraged me, so I pursed and restrategized on how to benefit greatly from the rice value chain in Nigeria.
Shortly after I stopped supplying already milled rice, Buhari closed the border and rice business started booming, I started receiving calls from those my customers to supply them rice that they will pay cash, I didnt mind them at all because I have made up my mind to quit begging people to pay me for goods I supplied them. Around December 2019 I made up my mind that I will be going into rice farming proper.

I also farm and supply rice from the South East.
I just finished harvesting my first round and hope to plant and harvest a second round before rain stops.
Rice farming is wonderful.
It's not always a gain gain as the current price is not homely.

Nonetheless it's great to feed the Nation!

Which state do you farm in OP?
Do you intend processing or selling off immediately after harvest?

Did you just say the current price of rice is not high enough, even at 30k per bag.. you people should just kill us.

You want to make cut throat profit.

Hello guys... I just finished serving and I'll like to go into rice planting. I'm currently in Jigawa state.
For an acre will 200k be enough?? Plus would you mind if you give me the break down of gradual expenditures like
Estimated cost of fertilizer, seed, chemicals, labor, irrigation and co... Thanks... I need to write a proposal to convince the person that wants to give me a loan

The day we measured the land

Please where did you get the equipment you used to measure the land? I'm also trying to lease some farm land too?

I paid my cousin who is a geologist to use his device for the land measurement.

Rough estimation for what your are to spend on 1 hectare are as follows

Rice seed: 150kg..... 45,000
Fertilizer(npk) 3 bags ...... 16,500
Urea...... 2 bags........... 18,000
Non selective herbicide. 1&half carton.. 20,000
Pesticide......... 6000
Selective herbicide ( optional) .. 7000
Land lease........... 25,000
Tractorization ....... 16,000
Labour
Transportation?
Harvesting and threshing..... 40,000

I didn't add labour and transportation because it dosent have a fixed amount and sometime you can save money by doing most or some of the farm work yourself.

30k per bag?
That's too much!

The problem of high cost of food is with the middle men who buy at giveaway prices and give you at costly prices. Not farmers who most times don't even make high profit.
But 30k for a bag is too much.

I can sell sweet home grown rice to you at cheaper rates of 19-22k per bag. Where ever you are in Nigeria.

For your sweet rice @ sweet prices

So I and my friend started making contacts on how to start farming rice, the people we met refused to teach us, a lot of promise and fail, God so kind I came in contact with a relation of mine who is a fadama facilitator and lucky enough he was well grounded in rice farming and have numerous contacts of rice farmers in the south east, I and my friend was linked to a youth leader in one rice farming village who helped us sourced for land at the rate of 1k for a chain and 25k for a hectare ( 25 chains make up a hectare) we paid for 10 hectares.

Bro Nice one but it is 16 chains that makes up a hectare. A chain is 22 yards × 22yards.
Which side of Anambra
Omor,Omasi or Igbariam?

I was following this thread happily until one bitter and confused soul named Atlanticfire crept in and started discouraging some passionate fellows on here. I have a palm estate in Cross River state Akamkpa that pays me 3.8 million naira every 30th July! So, OP, Pay no heed to that demon named Atlanticfire, FARMING CAN MAKE YOU A BILLIONAIRE!!!

Boss how do I contact you please
I have sent you a mail already

The reason for buying farm inputs early is because it is cheaper now, when buying during farming season the price is usually very high.

Good

Good morning, plus I want to know, do you lease or buy one hectare of land for 25k?

you can't lease a hectare of land 25k in any farming communities in Anambra State..
