Thanks you are doing great also you have been a great asset here But pls will the manual weeding not be expensive considering the size of farm , what do u think
.

Manual weeding will definitely not be advisable considering the large expanse of the farm and coupled with d way labourers are charging esp in the SW. Apart from the cost implications, i have observed from some of my neighbors' farm(tom and pepper farm) that there is usually disease outbreak immediately they finished manual weeding in their farm. Dangerous micro organisms and spores that are jejely dormant and passive beneath the soil surface are always unleashed in the process of manual weeding.
My method is similar to the advice u gave up there. For crops above a foot tall, i simply put a hood/guard on my nozzle and spray with contact herbicide, weed in close proximity to seedlings are spared, the following day it can be hand picked.

hello sir, thanks for the concern the tractor has been fixed long ago but the setback changed our plans, instead of starting with the rains and using irrigation to end it, we going full dry season irrigation farmings..

Once the rice fields closer to the dam is harvested, okra updates shall flood the thread grin
