WE REACHED A MILLION STANDS OF PLANTAIN!!!!!! W e finally hit the one million mark for plantain stands within two years and that says a lot When we started up this project we had a lot of era backs and set backs as we went on we strived to correct some of our mistakes, learning along the way the intricacies of growing the crop and how to over come the challenges faced with crop AND WE CAME OUT STRONGER Here is a report on the Journey So Far..... The actual idea of The Plantain City Project Ogun State was to create a zone in the south west were any thing and everything about plantain/banana could be found without stress.and it started 2years ago. The idea was to change the narrative of plantain/banana for FOOD to INDUSTRIAL purpose From a Food for the wealthy to a food for everybody Also creating an industrial hub for the production, processing and marketing of the crop either fresh or processed onto whatever product needed We wrote wrote foreign industries that made use of the truck of the plantain for highly skilled processing and we were told that for them to consider us we must have at least 3 to 5 million stands of the crop to feed the factory and they have been keeping interest in us till we reach he target Trust me the journey has not been an easy one for the farmers as we are facing a major challenge in the name of IRRIGATION AND EFFECTIVE WATER SUPPLY, DISTRIBUTION AND DELIVERY to the plantain/banana crop which we must add, is very expensive, hence farmers in the project are left to only one season harvest in stead of all year round harvest Secondly, due to the weeding challenge, we had to com up with a way to maximize spacing and still get value for money. So we ran a pilot project on inter crop with the plantain and our finds allowed us look at farming from a different angle. The following was the out come of our experimental pilot project 1. From month 0 to month 3, inter crops such as tomatoes, leafy vegetables, maize can be planted in between the spaces of the plantain without affecting the growth of the crop 2. From month 4 above tree crops shud be planted in between rows of The plantain and maintained 3. These tree crops would serve the dual purpose of both wind breaker 4. That the tree crops would stem from any of orange/lemon/tangerine, coconut, avocado pear,ogbono, agblumo, sour sop e.tc 5. That after the plantain is planted, whole land would be shared equally among the tree crop the farm wish to plant and that the tree crop would not serve as a parastise to the plantain pending when the tree crop itself reaches full maturity ad starts to produce at maximum 6. We themed it the 5 to 10 year project ( 1 acre farm holders) for The Plantain City Ogun State but can be replicated on as much land as possible The idea is that on that 1 acre of land you can still do your plantain/banana while growing other crops that bring to you extra cash The vision of THE PLANTAIN CITY PROJECT OGUN STATE is to creat an industrial hub for Plantain/banana farmers, by plantain/banana farmers to serve as a feeder to industries,creating employment and raising the of the crop the agro sector, completely chagin the narrative for the crop Thanks Emem Paul For Standard Impact Group For further information on the project Call Mr. Solomon 08064612484 Mr Paul 08068137724 WhatsApp 09064443828 Or Visit the farm at Along Onigedu road off Idiroko border road, by quarantine checking point, Oko-eye, Ogun State |

Irrigation is expensive and we asked for whatever assistance there is from Govt and NGO's to come to our aid to be able to achieve this dream of all year round production Secondly, due to the weeding challenge, we had to com up with a way to maximize spacing and still get value for money.

This is officially introducing the CONFAS (CORN FARMING SEASON) 2019 PROJECT to you A Brief History 3 years ago we were kind of wondering we farmers don't like planting corn yet you hear people shouting there is so much money in corn farming. So we decided to enter into it. Well let's just say that story didn't end well for us 2 years ago, we went back to the drawing board re-strategised and came back to plant the maize again and this time we sold fresh and the result was encouraging Last year we took our time and experimented on different plant spacing,fertilizer application, time of planting as well as hybrid seeds and marketing And the results ![]() Outstanding!!! Oh and we sold fresh because that's were the money is. Since our last disaster some years back with cassava, we had promised not to introduce any new cropping season without testing the market for both the good the bad and the ugly side of the market Hence, we are proud to say without doubt that there is big money in corn farming selling it fresh Now to Business We will be giving the potential farmer the option of choosing between planting the highly improved hybrid seeds or the local Seed Run down of the cost of cultivating 1 acre(6 plots) of corn Land lease 10000 1st and 2nd plough 15000 Mild cutting 5000 *Import Hybrid seeds 17000 *** hybrid seeds. 6000 Planting. 6000 Fertilizer + transportation + application @ 12000 per bag x 3 bags 36000 Spraying + post emergence herbicide 5000 Total cost plus import hybrid seeds 94000 Total cost plus local hybrid seeds 83000 Optional (*** local hybrid). (* imported hybrid) Now to the Return on Investment 1 acre will accommodate 20,000 stands of corn Let's give 3000 stands to defects and failure and you are left with 17000 Going by the minimum accepted price for profit A fresh mature maize sells for a minimum of #8 per cob at farm gate #8 x 17000 cobs of maize = #136000 #136000 - #88,000 = #48,000 or 35% of your investment after 3 months Isn't that something or what How to get started 1. Visit the farm 2. If interested, pay a registration fee. Registration fee covers Workers, agro service seedry and buyers sourcing. Registration is # 5000 (1 - 5acres), #10,000 (6 - 10 acres) negotiable for 11 acres and above 3. You have to be present during most, if not all farming activities being carried out For more information on the CONFAS PROJECT and how to participate Contact Mr. Solomon 08064612484, 08144012950 Mr. Paul 08068137724 Mr. Dave. 08060153798 Or visit the farm at Along Igborodo/Asipa road off Idiroko border road axis, by Quarantine checkpoint, Oko-eye, Ogun State

Extracts............................ LABOUR This another major factor that hurts we farmers badly. I remember a particular incident that happened 2 years back, we were short of man power to carryout weeding on the farms we owned and also managed and the locals were not helping matters one bit. You see out location is strategically placed closed to the border so it more of a blessing than a curse to some people while others like we farmers, it is more of a curse than a blessing. My reason being that during February you influx of migrants workers who come into the country to do menial jobs. and at the end of the year, a brand new bike is given to them Now the previous year, we farmers in the vicinity had gathered money and given it to one of the agents that bring in the yearly workers for us so as to aid us in our various farms but we were in for a shocker This agent ran away with our money and never returned and we were left stranded at the mercy of the locals and the went for the kill A plot of land for weeding that would have gone for let's say 1000 naira instantly rose to 3000 naira. It was a case of suck it up, pay the high amount being charged, and loose but not much to market Or alternatively,!don't do the weeding, and you still loose the farm. To make maters worse was that they didn't do a clean job like those yearly workers. Which led to constant bickering and they even threatened the farmer they would leave the Farm for him to do his weeding by himself. CAN YOU IMAGINE THE RUDE ARROGANCE How did we solve these problem? Its simple We Didn't So what we did was improvised a way of working round the people! Who felt that they were so important that without them we couldn't survive. We search through other states, for farm hands and when we got what we want,.....,....,..........................

D new cassava farm we gave him had it's own short comings as begin not up to 1 hectare so he decide dat he will take the 1 acre and we refund the balance it is important to note that as at when he entered contractual agreement with us a hectare of cassava cost 130000 to do of which he paid 110000 and the sum he paid covered only to first weeding 3. yes we ended in police station September last year 2ere the repayment model was settled we were supposed to balance him a total of 64000 after d checks and balances of which we have paid a total 52000 with a bal 12000 which we have deducted as our service charge of 20 percent from the 1 acre he harvested pls house help us judge this matter |
