Farmerakinloye6:
My experience with watermelon in 2017 was awful... I planted half hectare then, and gray squirrel ate everything. I will be planting just 90 seed to taste the water once more. I will use manure,npk 15:15:15, potassium nitrate, fungicide and insecticide. Since it is not on commercial scale, I will only be making short video which will be available only on my IG. So cheesy I do the nursery today...
No need for cocopeat right?

At what proportion sir

Ameboperoo:
Some questions though. Why do you have to add glyphosate to 2,4d for your second spray? I think glyphosate is already a total systemic herbicide on its own.
2. It seems you planted your maize 1 per stand? Don't you think you will get a better yield if you plant 2 per stand?
3. You stated that you waited for 2 weeks or so before you planted your maize. I would rather plant immediately after ridging and spray a pre-emergence herbicide like altrazine before the soil begin to cake (though it may not be an issue where your soil is forest or virgin soil).
What do you think? I'm ready to learn more under you sir.
Quick one please

For maize production ,understanding weed biology and pest management is very important . After your land preparation, thesame day you sow,(please spray within 24hrs) using altrazine and paraquat( mixed the 2 chemical). Thereafter you can glyphosphate herbicide to control the weeds till you harvest . please make sure your maize are in rows for easy spraying and walkway .

They to can be fatten to slaughter in 6months, weighing 100kg no local breed will give you this.
Modern farming is all about farming right and smart. We plant genetic improved seedlings so do we rear genetic improved animals to maximize profit.

The Nigeria pork industry is so underated , Nigerian still imports pork from South Africa at this time, because most pig farmers lack the proper knowledge of the pork market.
Nigeria is meant to be the highest exporter of pork to the world given the abundance of varieties for protein and carbohydrate for the formulation of pig feeds.
The pork industry is a huge one.
