Apples can grow anywhere. The first thing is to get an apple fruit with physiologically matured seeds.

With good Agronomic management, you are good to go in 12 months.

I have a friend in Igueben (Edo state) who is eating his cultivated Apples now

The Nigeria Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said Delta ranked as second least poor state in the country.

The bureau, in its latest Poverty Index Report, ranked Delta second after Lagos among the states with low poverty rate, and said that 40.1 per cent of Nigeria's total population was poor. According to it, an average of four out of 10 individuals in Nigeria have real per capita expenditures below N137, 430 per year, meaning that monthly income of an individual in this category is less than N11,500 while income per day is N383.03.

The report said "Lagos State has 4.50 per cent poverty head count rate and closely trailed by Delta with 6.02 per cent.

"The report translates to over 82.9 million Nigerians considered as poor by national standard.”

In his reaction, Commissioner for Information in Delta, Mr Charles Aniagwu, on Tuesday said in Asaba that the report was a reflection of the ``Prosperity for all Deltans’’ agenda being vigorously pursued by the Gov. Ifeanyi Okowa administration.

He also stated that due to the enabling investment climate created by the Okowa led government, particularly in oil bearing communities, Delta had been one of the highest revenue earners from Federation Accounts Allocation Committee (FAAC) which also indicated that the state government had been putting into judicious use the monies accrued to the state.

Aniagwu thanked the NBS for conducting living standards survey 10 years after the last one and for using consumption expenditures approach in measuring poverty in Nigeria rather than income approach.

According to him, conceptually, consumption expenditures better reflect the achievements of a particular level of welfare by a household, while income represents the opportunity of reaching a certain level of well-being.

"The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), Monday, May 4, 2020, released the long-awaited Nigeria Poverty and Inequality Survey Report 2019.

"The report places Delta State as the second least poor (poverty reduction milestone) State in Nigeria, after Lagos.

“This particular survey, conducted with support from the World Bank, recorded a clear departure from the previous exercises, especially in the area of methodology where the consumption expenditures approach was adopted.

“With the new national poverty line at N137, 430 or $361 per person per annum, which translates to $0.98 per day and captures about 40 per cent of the total population, it shows considerable improvement over the years.

"In the last couple of years Delta has remained one of the highest earners in the country in terms of crude oil revenues due to the peaceful relations between International Oil Companies IOCs and host communities.

"The Okowa administration in his first tenure promised Deltans prosperity for all and in his second term he said he would build a stronger Delta in terms of the economy, projects and of course, peaceful relations.

"The NBS rating is a pointer to the fact that Delta's resources have been put to judicious use by the Okowa-led government thereby reducing poverty to a level that we can boldly say that we are working.

"Our desire as a state is to come top in the country and also further improve the standard of living of Deltans in line with best global standards," he stated.

The report indicated that Sokoto, Taraba, Jigawa, Ebonyi, Zamfara, Yobe and Adamawa lead the poorest states in the country.

The survey is used to measure prevalence of poverty and to estimate a wide range of socio-economic indicators, including benchmarking of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Who is second least Rich please?

Let me loudly identify with my Delta. Though, I do not earn my livelihood from Delta State, but I am happy about this statistics!.
Many thanks All!

This is the active ingredient in the malaria drug_ Artesunate

There is Artemisia Company of Nigeria, under the Federal Ministry of Health.

Hmmm just yesterday I was saying to a friend that I suspect they will close a diamond bank in my estate and I was right , looks they are closing diamond bank branches in areas where they already had Access branches , Methinks Herbert Wigwe is just using COVID crunch as an excuse to ditch Diamond bank staff he inherited in the acquisition

Do you mean to say the cost of a Kenyan top bar hive is #6500?

We bought 13 hives for N65,000 in 2017. Do the math.

Chuksomenia:
I need to know if it is possible to start a honey business by keeping bees with 100k? Guys pls I need answers mostly from those who are already in the business.

Yep!. As a starter, it is more than enough. Begin with low cost hives (Kenya Top Bar) about 6500/one and a bee garment. Original honey is very very expensive. 500ml is 1500. Ours in Agroforestry department sold out in minutes though we use both modern hives and KTB as well.

Choose good locations with enough nectar and water and the bees will do the rest. Send me one litre for consultancy. Good luck oh!

IkeOnyia:
How many generators will he use to power this building? And will it be properly utilized? An ordinary 3 storey commercial building in a city finds it hard to get clients to rent space and this man just built a skyscraper inside a village! Can't help but see political undertones in this building. BTW, many Nkerehi people have not accepted that name change to Umuchukwu .

Exactly my question!. Huge expenditure to fully operationalize this humongous building and whatever activities it is gonna be used for.

Solar ke, Solar ni. Don't you think the solar installations needed to power this monster will cost as much as the building?. Was the location really a wise choice?

TermiteKillerPro is a do-it-yourself solution for killing and eliminating all manners of termites wreaking structural havocs on your property and farmland. Absolute majority of termites in Nigeria lives underground and causes lots of structural destructions to roofs, farm crops, furnitures and other wooden materials. Compared with other existing solutions, our solution is faster and more reliable as it kills termite colonies completely both on the surface and underground.

Termites are known to be the most dangerous pests that have left many home-owners and farm-owners’ life miserable as a result of havocs wreaked on their properties. They live underground in colonies and come above the ground in search of food, mostly wooden materials, farm crops etc. for their survival. Termites love places with lots of food, more humidity, more stability and little disturbances. Termites are hard to notice until structural havocs are sighted on your property as a result of their activities.

To inspect whether termites have entered your house, there are several evidences you should look for:-

1. Mud tubes - Subterranean termites live underground and they cannot be exposed to open air for long time. In order for them to create a covered path from the ground to the wooden structure in your property, they create mud tubes on the foundation. If you see mud tubes on your foundation, it is a clear evidence that termites have entered your property or they are going to enter soon. If you have a crawl space, you should check there for mud tubes too.

2. Swarmers or wings- If you see swarmers or tiny wings left by swarmers inside your house, it is quite likely termites have entered your property. Swarmers are flying termites which are ready to start their own colonies. If you see swarmers outside of your house, it normally is not an immediate concern.

3. Hollow Wood - Tap the wood where near the ground such as basement to make sure whether you hear a hollow sound. When termites infested your property, they attempt to make themselves hidden. So if you just look at the wood, you may not see big difference. However, termites eat wood inside, if you tap the wood, you could hear hollow sound. Also you can try to push a screw driver into wood to check whether the wood is still solid.

Our products are very effective to eliminate termite colonies completely without them resurfacing to wreak further havocs to your property. Lot of home-owners and farm-owners have been placing their orders with us due to our product effectiveness and competitive prices.

Good morning! I am really scared about the described killing efficacy of your "termitekiller pro".

Termites play a very crucial role in Ecosystems and their sustainability; why do you want to kill all of them and wipe them out completely from Nigeria?

In Crop management, termites play a crucial role in degrading hard organic materials to improve nutrient status of the soil. They only attack your crops in the absence of these materials.

Rather than kill of them, please control their population using a less poisonous chemical, biological, cultural and integrated pest management approach(IPM).

Thanks!

Is the possible to apply NPK to soil before planting maize?

If the soil fertility status is low, work organic manure into it during land preparation.

Then plant maize seeds at one seed/hole (reliable improved seeds).

Apply NPK at 3weeks after planting when the plants are @ knee level (300kg/ha).

When they begin to tassel @ 6-8 weeks after planting, apply urea (200-250kg/ha).

Expect 25-30 bags/ha of harvest if all other Agronomic management were properly done with adequate rainfall or irrigation.

I am not convinced he said that.
