and based on my experience, second harvesting even yield more than the 1st harvest.

yes, second harvesting will bring yam seed, if the heaps is big enough and it is well manage. you will definitely get 60% yam from the second harvest and 40% will be yam seed based on the individual goals.

Alfather:
it seems you are planting yam for the first time i quess. Am into this yam stuff and i will tell you the truth about it. Is very imposible to harvest yam twice a year using the same seed from previous harvest. If you plant oct_nov, your harvest will be aug of the following year. Am talking from experience because am a yam farmer, but am switching to water melon because the work in yam farm is very tidious. If you plant 1000 heap, not all wil germinate, some wont produce well giving you small size, some of the heap will produce seed yam, while some will produce big tubas. To be precise if your yam hit the market from july, august, you are assured to sell your yam at a give away price because of yam supplusity at that time. So this your assumption of twice havest and a milion naire return, let yur chik hash first

you are right bro, I will soon break down my calculation to you on the said amount. Based on your aforementioned point, You truly a farmer.

Alberttahir:
thanks for your advice sir. that was what necessitated my questions to the op. I'm a farmer too, and from my experience so far, what the op wrote is not achievable here in my place.

hmm, how many time do you harvest, the second harvest is what you don't have the knowledge of. a lot will it is the seed, what turn to yam?. my last harvesting was a great lesson to me. what you experience is different from what you don't experience. I rest my case .

MikeBetty:
My Dear, Dont Be Victim Of Cyber Farmers ooo, They Will Use Every Enticing Words To Lure You Into Buying Seedlings. In Yam, The Main Harvest Is The First Harvest. The Second Harvest Is The Seed For Planting. If You Jump Into Yam Planting Base On Online Projection, You Might End up Regrating Venturing In. Please Try And Meet Offline Farmers Who Are Real Farmers, Ask Questions Before Making Decision.

.
see you, who are computer farmers, the second harvesting do you want to tell me everything is for the seed, my bro your knowledge on yam farming is inferior, seek more knowledge we shall guide. what you don't know is different from what you know

if you harvest once you might not get up to date bro

Alberttahir:
#700,000 from 900 yam set? how is this possible, have you achieve that in real practical experience?

yes, with my 200 yam set as at last year. the bigger the yam the better the Chances

MoreTech:
Can we chat on WhatsApp?

okay, chat me up on 07066444540

Having 900 yam sets, You earn of a profit 700,000 per year if harvested twice. if 2000 yam sets, you can earn up to 1.5M in year if harvested twice.

And anytime I will like quiting the planting due to the stress involved, I always have a flash back of my harvesting this year around June - July. and late September. The income is more than my initial capital.

As at Today we have planted over 1500 yam sets aside the initial planted one (900 yam sets) in the Mid November.

And Note: I assure you, there is no amount of money invested on yam farming that is a waste. You will reap all of your investment at least 80% based on my experience. with Good management 96% of return

And note, we have different species of yam in the market based on their economic value.
3 Major ones are:
1. Afuru
2.Efo
3.Oniyere or Iseosi.

Currently we have planted 2,500 yam sets against next year. Although still going to 3000 upward.

although the earlier your planting the better your chances of harvesting twice. most time, it starts from November- December , or December-January, Or January _ February. the Best is November -December to able to meet up with the second harvesting. Alas second harvesting yield more output than the first harvest.

First and foremost, know that yam can be harvested twice in a year. And know that no amount of money invested on it can be lost except if you abandon the farm by yourself

Do you know that with the right knowledge of farming yam in Nigeria, poverty will be drastically be reduced with little capital and mass yield of returns or profit. Ask me how?
