hello me and my team are gathering information for an agricultural app and we are gathering information from farmers and other potential users
do you mind I send an email??

.
Send me a mail.

Go for noilers then.

olisefom:
Thanks for your suggestions. I sincerely don't think WAD is good for investment purpose. What is your take sir?

.
I think it is good. But there are breeds that are better but the risk is that they may not survive tsetse flies.

Psoul:
Diamond is 40k
I have Rottweiler, GSD, Caucasian mix and Lhasa Apso

The last just sold.

.
Thanks. I like dogs. I plan buying one someday. I'm happy to hear that 1 bag can last for that long.

Psoul:
You fail to talk of one important factor.
Which of them have regular buyers.

Let's assume that market is not a problem. Assuming there are buyers for all of them. Rearing of dogs are more profitable. Adult dog eats once a day.
I just sold 9 out of 11 puppies one of my dogs gave birth to. The least price I sold one is 90k and it's just less than 3 months old puppy. Some were sold at 120k per puppy.
The dog gives birth twice a year.
A bag of dog food can last for over 6months for one dog. If you combines it with other cooked food, a bag can last for 8months.

Besides that, they are also doing security work for me in the house. Before you can sell your ghost or pig, you'll feed them to maturity which is birth stressful and financially intensive.

.
How much is a bag of dog food? Which breeds do u have?

olisefom:
I am in lagos. What type of goat do you think I should go for. I have an acre of land already...working on building the fence and other structures.

.
WAD is good for the south. I dont know of any other breed that can resist trypanosomiasis well.

Mohisah:
It was in care of veterinary Doc. That business is pure luck. That was the good reason I invested that huge, I thought it'd be safe.

I will prefer rearing aves to goat 🐐, or I'll go less for Goat next time...
I'll get a mai-suya contact that I'll be supplying my fowls, cock to. I know a guy who sells UpTo 100 chicken per day

.
If you know what you're doing, no farm biz is pure luck. You made a big mistake by putting it in the hands of sb. They can't take care of it the way u can. If you don't monitor ur farm manager strictly, forget it.

olisefom:
Thank you for this. Are you referring to WAD? Moreso, what breed of goat do you think can be invested in please?

.
There are WAD goats that give birth to 3-4 kids. I'm planning to try out some soon. The goat breed u choose will depend on ur locatn.

Mohisah:
If u're a non Muslim, go into rearing of Dog, cause u won't have any issue of poisoning them, stealing them etc..
I invested half a million into Goat they ended purging, food poisoning & some irregular sickness. I recovered my money with no more than 15% interest after they started dying 😢...

Just go for dog especially local one (Bingo) that eat any eatable 😊

.
Did u went into goat farming with adequate knowledge? Did you allow them to roam around?

Hotwest:
You r right but only feeding a dog have covered all these. In the villages most don't do all you wrote and those goats are still healthy walking freely and returning back home

.
There is a difference between small scale and large scale. Those small scale goat farmers in the villages can cope with allowing their goats to roam around. There are lots of nutritious grass and legumes for the goats. But once u confine them in a pen, you must provide them with balanced ration. If not you wont succeed.

Alamkir:
Pls what's the name of the seed to grow d grasses and how to grow them

.
Elephant grass is very common. It can be grown from stem cuttings. Brachiaria is better. The seeds can be bought. There is one NL guy that sell it (I've not bought from him thoughm)

toluleke:
you no be farmer I am 100% sure. You just dey talk from surface

.
Ok oo. Seer.

They vould have at least show us pics of the turbines.

These people deserve life imprisonment. I wonder what this world is turning into.

olisefom:
A conversation to join.

Can someone please digress a bit and compare goats and cows in terms of profitability/risks/resources.

.
Goats are better than cow. By the time you are raising one cow to maturity, you have raised several generations of goats. Goats multiply easily too. There are breeds that give birth to 3 or 4 kids.

Hotwest:
G O A T
Greatest Of All Time.

Easy to feed because they eat free grass and drink just water.

Then sold easily as meat especially in this part of the world people dont really eat dog meat or pork meat

Use your head

.
Goats dont just need grass and water. They also need mineral lick and some supplement feed made from ingredients like maize, soybeans etc. If you arre raising many, you also have to vaccinate.

jesusjnr2020:
Yeah... God also said similar about the Ninevites because of their wickedness but...

Jonah 3:10 (KJV)

AND GOD SAW THEIR WORKS, THAT THEY TURNED FROM THEIR EVIL WAY; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.

So if they had repented as Ninevites had done, He would have also had mercy on them.

That's why you also need to repent.

.
Very gud reply.

Even dogs eat grass sometime. They do so to relief stomach and digestive problem.

Happy birthday! Though I prefer killer dogs.

RuMiRgO1stSon:
It was really unfortunate
But the aunty says its the cassava variety that's not good.
It's the yellow type

.
I dont know about those types yet.

I'm glad to hear the name "Ibeto". I pray he goes back into cements.

If this is really true, then it is a foolish waste of money.

RuMiRgO1stSon:
... Though the aunty that help in making the garri said it will have even be more, if not because the cassava has less fiber, too much water. Thanks[/b]

.
The right time to harvest is some months after the early rains to avoid watery pulps.

Goats and sheep are cheaper. You can even grow the grass yourself if you have land or rent it.

Cedagrochemical:
So sorry for the late response sir, it's 4800 per sachet

.
Ok.

This will help boost local production. In China, importing finished products attracts more than 50% tax.

When so many useless countries were calling others to boycott Euro and USD, I just smiled at their uninformed citizens shouting and supporting it. Only Europe and US gives fair tax for imported finished goods into their countries. Infact they only like finished standardized goods thereby helping exporting countries to develop.

The uncivilized China pushing their Yaun down the throats of this developing countries don't accept finished into their countries. The give little to zero tax on imported raw materials and tax heavily on finished products. This helps them to keep developing their economy while pushing the exporting countries to deeper recession.

Nigeria is still very fair enough. Good one there

.
Do u think china would have done that without all those sanctions by US and co?

Hadsty23:
please help me look at this below:
She has been battling this when breastfeeding the infant.

One breast seems smaller and the kid are only able to suck from the smaller breast only. I had called a vet for her 2years ago but a quack one, instead the vet almost got her killed.
And since then I did not time to check on the goat

The kids always ended growing up malnourished with retarded growth and pale color

.
Might be mastitis. https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-opera-mini-android&channel=new&sxsrf=APwXEdeRq1-B0ke3Eoc8e3NkAonY1eR0jA%3A1682871953384&q=hard+lump+in+goat+udder+&oq=hard+lump+in+goat+udder+&aqs=heirloom-srp..

001Lagos:
You were in a hurry to quote me because of "Likes"

United states government rescued there citizens without this unnecessary show off . E reach Nigeria turn, Dem begin take pictures first . 😂

.
It is not a bad thing if we encourage our leaders from time to time. Constant criticism doesnt help.

Cedagrochemical:
Haifa Bonus is now in stock

.
How much

Olaolex:
Honestly sir, I don't know what's wrong with we youths of nowadays. We indulge in all sorts of immorality and yet complain of spiritual attacks. That is why there are too many demon possessed youth nowadays. And the worst part is that they won't take correction. God will diliver this generation.

.
We are surely in the end time. When people will love pleasure rather than God. Many parents and men of God are not even helping matters.

"And the only way to ensure that they did not die in vain is for the Federal Government to ensure that their killers are arrested and prosecuted.”
.
Really? How many times will something happen b4 they get sense? All these while u guys can do nothing? U are waiting for a govment that doesnt care? I pity u people!

turmacs:
