AgriMax: For anybody who is interested in farming and wants to invest on agribusiness and he or she is a novice as far as agriculture is concern, that person should feel free to talk to me on this thread and I shall gardly advice such person on how to be rich in just 4months after cultivating ofada rice or even other types of rice. The only difference in ofada rice cultivation and non-ofada rice type is the fact that ofada rice command higher price compare to the common or conventional rice in the market, maybe because of it health benefit and aroma. However, ofada rice produces less than the foreign or conventional rice. From my experience, ofada rice when cultivated under lowland condition, it can produce between 3-4tons per hectare while foreign rice can give you up to 12tons per hectare if well managed. I am interested in this business. Can i meet you please? |
