Can farming and animal husbandry succeed if the owner doent reside in the country? I have a feeling that one day someone will tell someone that no chicken lay egg today.

this is exactly the problem that I have been having been having with my part time farm manager, very unserious and dishonest despite my generosity to him. I have lost so much because of it. Nobody wants to work for a living in this country, we all prefer to be frauds. We would always have the poor among us due to their dishonesty, indiscipline and laziness.

Hornome:
If I have the capital ehn
10 acres for Plantain farming
10 for cabbage farming
20 for pepper and tomatoes farming
5 for different varieties of vegetables especially ugu
Remaining 5 for piggery and cat fish farming.
So I go dey make money every season.

Easier said than done

Integrated piggery farming

Good day sir/ma, well we all sharing ideas together. My name is adesanya bolutife, to me having a big FARM those not mean it a profitable farming . Some small scale FARm are actually making it than some big farm. Paper work of agriculture is really interesting than physical work. I have my own piggery farming. Am doing well as well, facing my challenges. I have made alot from piggery farming. The only advice I will give a new farmer is to start small. Thank you.

you're right but you haven't answered the question of what to do with 50 acres.

Very unrealistic

Antimarraige:
yes it will also have its own farm and poultry and its own chicken restaurant where extra farm products will be utilized and birds from the poultry will be the main source of the specialized chicken restaurant for students, where they will eat mostly everytime of the day

Capîce?

Many things

Write a proposal to bank of agriculture on loan for a 3 month Vegetable farming, 3 months Agbado farming , and a 1 year Cassava farming

Lol gbin Ęgę and thank me later. Cassava Export is the in-thing now. I just gave you a tip you didn't pay for.

You may consider oil palm plantation too..there are some species you couid grow and in 2 years, you'd commence harvesting.

50 acres is approx. 20 hectares.
Start Cassava farming.
Find cassava stem,plough the land and ridge.
Plant and spray pre emergence Afterwards.
Spray post emergence 6 wks after.
Let Cassava reach maturity stage.
Yield per hectares should reach 25tonnes.
Current price per tonnage is 30k.
Do the maths.

Affordable farmland and no flooding issues.

Right in my family, the land we own is close to 300 hectares. It's sitting idle because no one is interested in staying in the village. Plus, the reality of witchcraft. If you want to invest in large scale agriculture, may God help you if they don't use "air force" or physically poison you.

Who no go know no

I will turn it to garden of Eden as shown on the link below

Create a farm settlement.

Provided we will be allowed to protect over selves. And you will give us assurance for another 50 acres within and 200 acres cumulatively.

We should be able to house 100-300 farmers and their families. We will also need a guarantee of right of first refusal. We don’t want stories that touches the heart.

Build a factory and start processing coke weed for export.

Farm...crops and live stocks.

I will seek a soft long term agric loan and I will plant Cocoa.

I have no idea how difficult the loan will be to source for but I know 50 acres of Cocoa will bring a lot of dough

I will gift it to Tinubu

greenermodels:
I might contact you later to help set something up for me in Anambra there, I just remembered that you're already in the state. My experience farming there is ugly which is why I want to move to the southwest. Farm labourers are scarce, unserious and heartless. The only way to farm successfully there is to leave your city job and move into the rural areas to do it by yourself which is not feasible for me since I want a gradual transition to the rural areas for retirement. It's also difficult to get up to 5 acres in that state for integrated farming plus the fact that flooding is disturbing farming communities there continuously since 2012 nonstop. Land disputes is another problem as every community there seems to be in court over land dispute. Anambra offers best prices for farm products but their trouble is too much. Very expensive land prices is another matter.

Really?

Impressive ideas
