My thoughts initially until I got to Edo state where they are planting paw-paw in large quantities for commercial purpose.

A truck / cabster is sold at 350k to 400k.

That's what we don't do, plant in quantity. And that's because we lack knowledge, instead preferring to farm like our great great great grandparents farmed.

I have a friend who worked mango farms in Australia. Their trees are 3 years old and less than 2m tall, but the amount of fruit they produce is mind boggling.

I tell you, what ytdivine is producing on his farm can not be produced by some on 100 acres.

The biggest asset one can get is land. Nigeria is blessed with this but unfortunately this potential is under utilized. I converted every space within my compound to garden with variety of vegetables, fruits, crops and tubers.

I can't remember when last I buy oranges, pears, banana, plantain, sour sops, pawpaw, ugu, oha etc from market as I have all this within my home some in commercial quantity.

This thread is to encourage everyone to go back to agriculture in small available space within your disposal.
I will be posting pictures to support my claims.

Nigerian Songhai Farms! cheesy

I hope to do something like this when I get my own piece of land. At least, food crops like yams, potatoes, tomatoes, pepper and fruit trees.

I have a special respect for farmers; they listen to the earth, treat it (one of the most difficult things to treat for me, apart from babies, mental patients, and animals), till it and give her what she wants and mother earth gives them all she's got.

Nice one, OP.

Can you see the op is producing food and income instead of sitting on his lazy ass blaming leaders?

Those too busy wailing at buhari do not sow.
joker, only those engaged in subsistence farming are regarded as hard working in zombie and buhari dictionary.buhari love agriculture so much so he rely on imported goods to meet his household needs? I am yet to see you or buhari encourage those with resources to go into farming.

This is good bro, keep it up!
I and my immediate younger brother started planting economic trees when we were still small.

I planted local Apples, Avocados, Mangoes, Coconuts, Palm Raffia, Bush Mango, Plantains, and Bananas.
My brother planted Africa Pea, Palm Raffia, Mango, Guavas, Plantains, and Bananas.

And almost all these plants are still yielding to this day, if not for the fact that some of these trees were cut down, and buildings erected on those portions of land.

Nigeria is blessed. We have the capacity in this country to be the envy of the earth but we are yet to see it, not to even talk of utilizing the enormous land God has bestowed on us.
I have posted an idea like this before but the only difference here is that this seems to look like subsistence farming which is not so because you sell these agricultural products.
Now , imagine one Governor of a state in Nigeria with vast resources of hectares of land to begin mechanized farming with industrial capacity of the highest standard, the state would have turned to heaven on earth.

We don't need to import any agricultural products. Everything is here. Cow, rice, pig, beans, fruits, vegetables and so on. Just name them.
They are plenty inside the land of Nigerian but hidden, only a good leader can see it.

Raw materials for manufacturing industries are here.

By divine and God's program, Nigeria is supposed to be the richest country on Earth.

Forget about attack from fulani herdsmen, forget about kidnapping, forget about armed robbery.

When we get to where God has designed us to be, all this malaise will stop.

Come to think of it, what caused the kidnapping, ritualism and all other bad menace in Nigeria, it is poverty.
Poverty of ideas, poverty of good leader, poverty of money and poverty of good people to stop the bad people.

We don't need to travel to any county.
We don't need to japa.

Everything dey for Nigeria.

I see a new Nigeria.

Amen.

You have such a wonderful home garden, because its very productive, you dont need to spend so much on food, just imagine if more people begin to grow their food, food prizes will also come down.

I just imagine if you double triple your land and maybe even grow more varieties like rice, it means you can create a shop and you also dont need to buy any food. Because you can also get better and even go advanced.
