Over time we have seen snail experts say in snail farming, you can make millions. Well they have not lied, but how they told you to go about it is what might not get you your desired profits. Like we all know every business as its own risk so also does snail farming but there is way this risks can be drastically reduced.
Kanmi Sustainable Agriculture has been in the snail farming business, we have had our share of losses but we can tell you now that we have great experience. From different species of Snail. We have made millions and also we have lost millions, so when I say we are greatly experienced, I know what I'm saying. Usually I always tell people that if u know or have an information that rakes in money to you, why would you tell others, but now that I'm grown I have seen that u can't have it all to yourself. I will have my own and you will have your own.
My real intention was to empower students in primary, secondary and tertiary institutions. We have done it and it has worked. We have some lads paying their school fees right in primary,secondary and university themselves from snail farming, all we just did was give them the RIGHT INFORMATION. How it can be done to get your profit maximally. If anyone tells you that you dont have to spend a dime on ur snail, well its possible, but know that you have confined yourself to a limit already. But I tell you today that the money you will spend will be nothing compared to your profit.
