Can this also work on a farm planted with maize and okra?

nope! it will not work, either of the two will kill okra except it has not germinate when you spray it. Do you think okra will do well with maize? Cos I don't think so!

Fertilizer was apply on Friday and Saturday. Cassava planting is in progress...I will make sure I detail it and post on IG or YouTube by weekend.

It has due for second spraying(unwanted weed control) now, and insecticide application too.

That means I should stop the plan to grow both together. But I need my okra farm to be free from weeds, though I have not planted yet.

More videos pls, good work. Pls is striker a selective herbicide for maize only

don't plant them together, maize will spoil it.

yes, striker and guard force, it will kill every plant provided it is still between 2-3weeks old except maize.. don't worry more videos loading... it because of work load.. harvesting tomato, cucumber preparation, cassava and maize, you will agree with me it not easy to be doing action in the middle of work. Don't worry I will try! I appreciate man!!!!!

you are most welcome! More update loading by weekend...

1st and 2nd, 1 week after application of 2-4d and striker, weed is still dying why maize and cassava growing... I applied insecticide Wednesday and Thursday, by next week the farm will take proper shape.

Cassava start germinate... My next spraying ( contact herbicide) will probably be month ending or first week of August. My work is less now so I will have time for many action next week.

1st batch, maize growing and weed dying. If you look at the 3rd picture you notice cassava growing too, it will be obvious by next week.

2nd batch growing too!

This is quite interesting. the future is farming

Which insecticides did you use on the farm and must someone notice any insects or their damage before using insecticides?


I am actually following in your footsteps. I planted on about 4 plots of land and I intend to follow exactly what you are doing here. I planted the maize on the 2nd of July.

good! Caterpillar force, it not compulsory to see the sign, once it three weeks old apply it. Note! Make sure your cassava has not germinate nor has any leaf before you do second spray! If it has either striker or 2-4d will kill it. Do your second spray the following day you plant cassava.

So this means that you do second spray the same period that you apply Caterpillar force.

Bros is not good to use strike and 2 4d together it will affect d Maize and d grow will slow down

Bros what is ur potential yield per hectre and how many kg did u plant , bcous I also planted maize , akure
