Easier said than done. I advertised calling for investors of as little as 200,000 Naira each x six persons on this forum for over two years. Do you know that only one person turned up and thanks to God I am paying him this month
This must be sc510 from Seedco. The bright orange colour is exactly like my own.

Bring the funds, partner with we rural dwellers. We will farm. As I type I just harvested maize this morning and heading for the farm.

CaptainFM1:
You have amaized me. You shall continue to rice and beans.

You would ignorantly argue with this report if you have not had milk meant for European and American markets. I stopped buying Nigerian shit called milk after I received some packages of milk from someone in Europe.

This country is ruined on many fronts. Why do you think people are sick everywhere in Nigeria? Most of the consumables here are not fit for human consumption. The coke, Fanta, Pepsi drinks you gulp like water are not of the same quality with the ones your fellow humans consume in advanced countries, not even in South Africa. Nigeria don baje o.

Why not create a smartphone that is meant only for kids.

ActiveFarms:
My farm terminates in a river. I noticed a monkey on a high tree on it. It ended up ruining about 300 Maize cobs when I took count. I was mad seeing damaged crops. I later settled with the notion that we invaded their homes and they are part of Nature.

The Money ended up not going too far, it didn't exceed 300 cobs. I took as a sacrifice to nature and better to leave them as part of Nature than kill it.

I think we should settle for some loss to nature in-between o. Na we invaded their homes

Esude007:
I saw this on Facebook.. laff nearly kill mee

This got me

I find it hilarious that ANY bank in Nigeria would attribute their financial success to "effective management and strategic foresight".

So funny!

Banks in Nigeria are one of the SHITTIEST institutions in Nigeria. Their physical services are rife with INEFFICIENCIES and you'd OFTEN have to the with incompetent or passive aggressive customer reps.

Their ONLINE servic s are even WORSE. A bank's MAJOR app would go offline for several hours and they may NOT even bother to let you know.

A week has not gone by that I've not received some kind of "we are working on it" message from Sterling Bank.

Banks in other countries make a major part of their revenue from making consumer CREDIT available to customers. They make it SUPER easy for people to get credit facilities by making credit cards available to customers.

There are people who have worked in Nigerian banks for DECADES that do not know something like credit cards exist.

Unless you are a BILLIONAIRE, getting access to credit facilities from Nigerian banks would require to twist and turn and jump through INSANE hoops.

And then there are the CHARGES. Oh the charges!

You want to send money? Charges!
You want to receive money? Charges!
You have an ATM/Debit card? Charges!
You did NOT do anything with the accoun? It's just there? Here are some MORE charges!

I once got charged ATM card maintenance fees when I did not even have an ATM card linked to that account.

The ONLY reason Nigerian banks keep making INSANE money is bevause of the disorganised and CORRUPT system in Nigeria that lets them scam customers.

Another reason banks make so MUCH money is the fact that we don't have a FUNCTIONAL legal system where people can SUE them for enough money to bankrupt them for their criminal ways.

Have you stored Egusi or you're still waiting for the price to come down. Happy waiting o

I prefer snacking on dry noodles instead of cooking them.

Also, while I don't prefer snacking on parboiled rice instead of cooked rice, I enjoy it. I can eat a plateful of parboiled rice.

Who else has this taste or habit?

10mobile:
There are many causes of the hunger. But for me, the two biggest causes of food insecurity in Nigeria are:
1. The menace of herders scaring away farmers from their farms over the years. In Benue, for example, many farmers have left their farms to the cities.
2. The high cost of transportation due to high cost of fuel.

Esude007:
Pls God we need rain ...

When maize reaches grain filling stage, any water stress issue reduces yield by affecting:

(1) Cob size

(2) kernel size

(3) Cob length

Esude007:
60 days old.

No rain in this location for 3 weeks now.

I wont Judge her infact, I don't see anything wrong in what she has done. That baby stand a better chance to grow up than living with the Mum as she has no means to look after the infant.
PS,She is blessed more than those who throw babies i n the pit.

Zwooks:
Sorry I didn't respond to you before now. I noticed some occurrences with my SC510 as well. First the cobs were small, also, majority stopped at having just one healthy cob, the ones that bore two cobs were two small cobs. For this reason, I feel this variety was made for speed and not to optimize profits or reward for labour. Also, most native varieties do far far far better than SC510, so I may not be cultivating it going forward.


I saw adverts on a variety, SeedCo 526, you may give it a try. It matures between 75-85 days and has 40% higher yield than SC510 going by the producers manual.



Permission oP to post this information

Zwooks:
My second maize farm has tasseled two weeks ago and was supposed to be due for harvest this week. The cobs for the few available are miserably smaller than even the local varieties I bought from the market.


Drought tolerant. But for how long ? I also planted SC510 that is also drought tolerant but for how long can they stay without water/rain ?

Iykopee:
You and the rest cretins should provide the address where the rice is sold.
