dav8id: You cant be a successful agro produce trader without local agent. Either you trust them and do business with them or you recruite your local agent from someone you trust and inject him in the market by following all their requirement of being the a local agent in the market. Thats what the ultimate Olam Nig did in the saseme market.
By the process of injecting ur personal agent in the market is what i dont knw but a simple visit to the market by u and make the full enquirement will do u gud.

dav8id: I have no idea on snail farming sir. Egusi, sesame , ginger ,cashew and charcoal are my area.

Buchika: umu nne m daalu nuo, abum onye igboukwu. I am into cassava farming and processing, but to tell you the truth it's not easy at all, I started with the wrong foot forward and I lost heavily, was demoralised but now I am understudy ing a successful poultry farmer cause I believe I must surely make it in agriculture. ka ohagodi m etua

fayahsoul: Africans sef. To us everything foreign is superior to local content. Look, these foreign breeds have been intensively geneticaly modified via boitech and therefore cannot be classified as pure. Rather its our local breeds that are organic and pure. Its not normal for a cow to produce 45 litres of milk a day. Does a calf need that much milk? That's a genetic disorder. The mammary gland inhibitors have been silenced this allows the over production of milk.

fayahsoul: as in d locate of my farm abi where i dey live?

Apitch: Confirm! U r all welcome.
Let's keep it up, I'm happy farming is no longer seen as a poor man's thing

Dexpro: Oppss..... Sorry. Its supposed to be pounds,

ewizard1: Thanks, I really appreciate. Being wondering where I can get this HAY in Lagos....

Dexpro: It should weigh anything from 16-23 kg. A fully grown geese equals 3 & half fully grown broiler if not more.

ewizard1: Glad to find this thread...

I love rabbits with Passion and i just bought 2 (Male n Female) from an Aboki i saw passing by on my street.
I dont know the breeds, neither do i know how old they are but i am very sure they are still babies. They are both PLAIN WHITE in color.

I need help on how to rear this animals.
Can they stay in my room, cause i presently have the hopping around on my rug.
What local food/grass can i feed them with.
How often i should feed them and also the enviroment care.

Thanks.

NOTE : I bought as a pet as i would sometimes carry them like babies.

I would share pictures of them soon. I petnamed them RONNY(Male) & BELLA(Female)

dasparrow: Don't forget, rabbits love carrots and gnawing on carrots is good for their ever growing teeth.

dyoungforester: Kudos to all my rabbit lovers;
now grasscutter vs rabbit which one is better to rear.To me apart from being a rabbit lover, rabbit rearing pays better than Grasscutter rearing. My reason
1st. Rabbit is easy to domesticate than a grasscutter in terms of facilities like building of cages requirements. Money for acquisition i.e purchasing for instance grasscutter is sold in colony or family which mean 4 female and 1 male but not matured one at the rate of 45k unlike a rabbit where u can establish rabbitry with just 10 mature female and 2 or 3 male with less expensive housing unlike grasscutter.
2; Grasscutter are all wild and not friendly like a rabbit
3; Gestation period of grasscutter is 45 day or more unlike rabbit 28 - 32 max 35 days
4. In terms of litters i.e kit, rabbit is the first ranging from 5 kits 12kits with my experience while grasscutter is ranging 2 to 5 kits hardly 7kits. E.t.c as you can see rabbit rearing is the best.
As you can see start one now and enjoy the happiness of it. One love rabbit lovers, one love dyoungforester.
Motto- breeding to be the best.
And remember the love of rabbit is the love of good returns. Stay bless.

olumzzz: ONE WORD........
#EBOLA............
Rabbit meat kor Bunny meat ni

whitecat007: Long throat! Humans should stick with fish, beef and chicken, and leave bunny alone, haba! Those cuties make great pets and avoid ebola.

Apitch: Still waiting for ur call

Blackethics: U wil get frm edo state ministry of agriculture. Dey hv some arable farmlands in agonebode and other area

Dexpro: At what age will she start laying? Laying starts when she is 15 to 19 months old.

Matured to be slaughtered When they are 6-9 months old.

How many eggs can she lay in a year? It depends on how well she is fed. You'll get 30 eggs. **

fayahsoul: @dejia this AI you are talking about sounds like its a fertilized egg that's been implanted into your sows and not sperm. In other words your sows serve as surrogates.

Apitch: Yes my family house is there but I reside and work @ Ogidi
Please can I have ur number so we can hook up. Mine is 08038927644

mercylicious: Wow. Nice to know u are close. I will pay u a visit in ur farm one of these weekends. I have been planning on setting up a farm for two years now but have nt done anything. Thinking of doing both crop and animal farming so dt the refuse froom the animals will be manure for the crops. Am looking at buying vast lands at aguleri side for this as land at nkwele and nsugbe have gone so expensive. I will be needing ur mentorship soon.

felixzo1: the only place i know tse tse fly attack people even at home is the delta region. just a open house will be okay,( but if the cases of tse tse fly arise , you can alway use a net to cover the pens) similar to the one provide below, it is good the do not stand on the ground in wet regions, because more disease are transferred that way.( foot and mouth disease and respiratory diseases) goats love dryness. crossing the the northern goats for example sokoto red with a nigerian dwarf will help with easier adaptation and hybrid vigour.northern goats do not do well in the south because of poor housing

felixzo1: tse tse fly will not be a problem with proper housing.
