Pistotita:


Hahaha! Please, don't kill me with laughter ooo. You are the funny man here ooo. Anyway, there is a place for trees, and apple has it's own too. Apple farming is a good one if you get it right, but there is nothing like Wambugu. Let the Kenya man stop fooling Nigerians. Even Kenyas who know about apple know that Wambugu does not exist. If it does, it would have been registered. I know about this issue very well. The whole Wambugu family in the business, I know them. The town they are from, I have great connection there. Where they do their stuff, I gat my network. Let no one fool anyone here. That specie is certainly not from Kenya. Those who know about it know it very well.

Guy, I can give you different varieties which are good for tropics. What is Wambugu? A beg, dont let one Kenya man fool you all. That family that supplies trashes as seedlings. Or do you want me to start calling on people with bad experiences while trading with the family? See, kindly just be careful. Of course the variety is not that bad. But the way and manner the family treats clients is terrible. How can you even explain buying 100 seedlings and 50% don't survive. You will be lucky if you get 75% survival rate. And they dont care. When you get the seedlings, you know there is problem if one is good with fruits. Google very well, and read comments on different websites and Facebook, you definitely will read about angry customers. If I start the story of my experience with the man's daughter, you will hate her. It was a Christian catholic sister from Nigeria who begged me not to take drastic action against her. And I allowed it slide. It's why I dint want to hear or read anything about the Wambugu family.

Not spoiling your business, but I just need to warn people so they know what they are entering. Which Wambugu? That inefficient family. Wambugu is like third class tree graft specialists in Kenya. If you want to go down this line I am ready to debate it and give real evidences. But let me stop here. Please, give your customer quality ooo. Not Wambugu, a beg.

Hello, if you want to bring down someone's business, come out open. Please provide this forum with link to complaints about the family of wambugu. Sometimes mishandling of seedlings can cause issues. It's semi arid, and because he was the first to commercialize it here in Africa, Kenyan government decided to name it wambugu apple

I don't have time for that. But if you want some kind of guarantee, We have partnered with the south east council of commerce and industry, you can look for the contact of the Director General and ask him about this project. This not a childs play and not a video thing. If you want proof, my office address is above.

At the unga yesterday I heard our president said something like he would encourage youths to plant over 25 million trees across the country in order to do his own part of the un's Green initiative to save our eco system. I don't know, but I think a lot of opportunities can spring forth from this, I think you also should do your own part maybe with exotic fruits like apples.

This Wambugu Apple has been successfully cultivated in Nigeria- Ikorodu, Ojota ( Lagos ), Kaduna State, Osun State and Enugu. If you want to learn more about the Wambugu Apple ( Queen's Apple ), go to YOUTUBE.COM and type in 'Wambugu Apple Documentary'. Watch the documentary and you will hear from Kate Wambugu, the daughter of Peter Wambugu who grafted this wonderful Apple for the African weather, environment and continent. Stay Blessed.
. Thanks for this insight

Funny thing with Nigerians is that once someone planted this wanbugu apple he will ask govt to ban apple even for him alone.
My company is on a serious campaign for Wambugu Apple Farming in Nigeria to actually reduce the importation of apples.

Statistics indicate that Nigeria imported about 32,317 tons of apples in 2013 from South Africa. This figure have increased tremendously in the last seven years as millions of dollars is expended on importation of apples.

However, apart from statistic in 2013, there is no recent information to indicate amount of apples imported and consumed in Nigeria. But nevertheless the demand for apples continues to increase indicating that there is a sustainable market for apples in Nigeria, which is largely engineered by the increasing preference for fresh fruit over processed fruit.

It is also worthy to note that apples that are sold at shops, street corners and our Nigerian markets have been harvested before they get ripe and they take weeks and months before getting here. Even the apples are injected somehow to preserve them.

There is good news for farmers who want to venture into this money spinning fruit business. Today, there is a specie of apple called semi-arid apple, also known as ‘wambugu’ apple. This specie can grow well in our weather condition.


The semi-arid apple was developed by Peter Wambugu, a man who used to work as a mechanic in the streets of Nyeri, central Kenya, now a trained agriculture expert.


The semi-arid apple can grow to climate of up to 36°, which is within Nigeria’s weather conditions because the apple specifically is for hot and warm areas and it has a lifespan of more than 50 years. The apple can grow in any West African country and anywhere in the world. The semi-arid apple bears up 500 to 2000 fruits on each tree every season and it has two seasons in a year, starting between July, August, December and January.

As we look for fresh fruits and food everyday, it would be a nice move for agropreneurs to invest as early as possible and take advantage of the opportunities to make some good returns.


Presently, in Nigerian markets, a piece of apple goes for N60, N100 and above depending on its size. Some big hotels and agro shops buy apple in cartons every week, which shows big prospects for the fruits. If a tree produces at least 500 fruits per harvest and multiply the 500 by N50 and also with 200 to 300 trees, you know how much that will fetch you in two seasons.
