Pls which post emergent herbicide is best for cassava? Weeds have taken over my cassava farm and the cassava are still young.

.
I used glyphosate on mine when the cassava were young. But I made very sure that no single drop touch the leaves. A safer one is Paraquat. I used that too.

Lonestar124:
Do you still have farmland for sale in Anambra.....

.
I'm not the landlord. But most of the lands here have been taken.

jesusjnr2020:
It's because it's always been up to the children to choose which path they would take at the end of the day, regardless of the training the training they received.

They cannot be forced just like God didn't force Adam and Eve, but just showed them the right path, and made them know the consequence of not taking it, so it would be up to them to choose it or not.

God bless.

.
I believe it is the parents that are to be blame. Because if they had trained there children in the way they shud go, they would not have departed from it. Take for example, parents that speak well of immoral celebrities. They might be emphasizing good things about the celebrities without condemning the evil they represent. When they do this b4 children, they are indirectly telling their children to follow and learn from these celebrities.
.
How many parents talk when they see their children mimicking or dressing like one yeyebrity? Satan come into people's families in subtle ways.

WoundedLamb:
Well, she appears well dressed to me. But I get it, what's modest to one might be immodest to another. To each, their own. I just don't think I'd critize anyone for putting on what makes them confident on the grounds that it may make another person misbehave especially if it's not all that revealing. People still get sexually attracted to women covered like the Muslims do. Besides, like I said, I've never seen anyone call out a man for putting on body hugs.

.
First, immodesty is mainly women's problem. Very few men dress immodestly, but in recent times, it is increasing with men.
.
Prostitutes wear tight trousers and clothes to drive men to lust. They know what shape-revealing dresses can do, even the ones that reveal their pants outline and the shape of their private parts. What a pity!
.
The bible is clearly against leading others into sin. That's why immodesty is bad. It encourages sexual thoughts and actions. So it is not just a matter of how you feel. You also have to consider others around you. If you don't, then you don't have love for your neighbours and that makes you a candidate of hell.
.
Revelation 2:14
But I have a few things against you, because you have there some who hold the teaching of Balaam, who kept teaching Balak to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols and to commit acts of immorality.
.
1 John 2:10
Anyone who loves a fellow believer is living in the light and does not cause others to stumble.

So he prefers the Fulanis raping their women, destroying their farms and killing them? Sorry for u.

numen:
Please what's the handle of the nairalander that sell spray tubes?

WoundedLamb:
I don't see anything wrong with her dressing. It's not like she's exposing her flesh. She's hard-working married woman with her own sense of fashion which should not be eroded by our judgment. We men also put on body-hug shirts and nobody criticises us. Just saying.

.
Whether men or women, body hugs are immodest. Just look at her trousers. A true christian cannot be a source of sexual temptation like that.

naijanaso:
They want her to be dressing naked to be a role model. The lady is concentrating on her home building and business venture instead. Those role models you admire, what have they brought to the table if not one scandal or the other. Meanwhile, this woman is an employer of labour and has helped to bring a lot of Nigerians from the gutters.
Pls young lady don't mind side talks. I am proud of you.

.
That her tight clothes and trousers, are they modest? They are not, except u are the type that compare evil with evil and choose the lesser evil.

Nezzjnr:
But do you think some nations will accept such idea

.
Yes. As climate wahala bite harder, they will even persuade/force other nations to accept. The reason why I like it so much is because of its potential application in war situations.

Standing5:
Painful thing nobody can explain why it is going up.

.
I think the govt is simply following IMF recommendation for economic recovery.

yuping:
Noted.
It sad shaa, it always comes down to the word or God is for the chosen ones but when you want to preach is for all, because you want to save their unredemmiable soul.
The way African Pastor and Alfa preaches this heaven will be empty ooo.

.
Of course, any dance step with sexual connotations is from hell.

Nezzjnr:
They said all Farming except Fruits and vegetables.

We move

.
You are right bro. But then, if they succeed, competition for fruits and veg will be very high. I like the concept though, and with time, I will start my own experiments. Currently gathering as much knowledge as I can.

Every farmer shud read this! Farming may go extinct in the future. Scientists can now grow food as microorganisms. And this can replace meat, milk, grains, pulses etc! We are talking about what may happen by 2030!! Read and tell me what you think:

ZKOSOSO:
Understand sarcasm.........?? Think I know his type....!! Likely a Grail Message Adherent

. I'm very happy you knew. But is that how Grail message members talk?

abouzaid:
i have decided to dig a well and get a water pumping machine for a start, the rest of the land would be used for cassava and water melon as adviced by someone here. Funny enough, someone is offering to get me a leased land close to a river, maybe i should check it out.

.
I suggest u take the one close to river. U can't trust well in the middle of dry season.

abouzaid:
Please help, i have secured a large plot of land that might be as big as 20 plots when measured but my problem is how to irrigate it, it doesn't belong to me so drilling of a well or borehole might not be allowed by the owner so the next option would be to buy water from neighbors with borehole and transfer it by pipe to a plastic water tank or tanks on site, i would like to start with one crop and one plot at a time and gradually turn the entire plot to a full time vegetable garden, so how best should i approach the irrigation problem? What size of tank should i buy giving my current and future plans? Any other advice would be appreciated?

.
U better find land close to river or u farm only in rainy season.

ZKOSOSO:
Just a kobo junkie......vibrations.....!!

.
U are hailing that guy? Someone who encourage polygamy, dirty songs and dirty jokes, immodest dresses and a lot more. If u know him at all, you'll know that he is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Also wear a spy camera - camera button, eye glass or pen.

Kempinski:
Good morning guys , there's this woman in my neighborhood who has been having an extramarital affairs with the bike man that normally use to come and pick her children to school in the morning, she has two kid, a boy and a girl, but her cheating spree is out of this world...
.....

.
Op, if you don't expose her, you are wicked and similar thing may happen to you. Read Ephesians 5:11.

tillaman:
It can only be SA, those folks been sharing HIV like palliatives but it’s good sha I hope they make use of it if they must smash, it’s like a license to smash
*Halleluyah

.
It will soon reach Nigeria. With things like bbn, dirty music and movies, pastors that shun criticizing sin etc, it is a matter of time..

I just hope they truly repented. And that the church have done greater things for their godly members. Otherwise, it will be like the case of Buhari rehabilitating boko haram while citizens that deserve better are neglected.

Farmerakinloye6:
I will choose along the slope, upload like 2 pix on my irrigation and kit installation thread for more insight.

.
It shud be across the slope.

TMTR:
Look at our politicians today, infact look at our society in general, most if not all were raised in a religious background and how is that working out for us so far, Nigeria still ranks as one of the most corrupt countries and other negative indices while less religious countries are doing way better

Will rather teach her humanity

.
The problem with many Nigerian Christians is hypocrisy. For example, parents who are exposing their children to immoral celebrity programs, will u call them Christians? Yet, this is very rampant and the children will grow and follow the evil path celebrities show them. This is the major issue I see with fake Christians. But there are still good Christians.
.
Teaching her humanity isn't enof. It takes a change of heart for anyone to behave right. And only Christ can do that. Those so called countries u praise, are they not the ones that legalise abortion, prostitution, same sex marriage and other nonsense? Only Christ can truely save us from ALL sins. Money or prosperity is not everything. We have to always ask where we'll be after death.

TMTR:
I wouldn't say there is a disadvantage of teaching her to be a Christian but the basic thing is to teach her to know right from wrong, won't impose any religion on her , my parents never did that to me, she should live her life and enjoy it just like I am living mine

.
This isn't a good idea oo. Sinners can't differentiate many rights from wrong. It takes maturity in Christ to do that. Eg many sinners sees nothing wrong with immodesty, seductive behaviors, dirty songs, jokes and movies etc. Argue with them all u like, they don't see these as wrong.
.
That girl will soon grow and controlling her will become difficult or impossible. No matter how much she loves u, she won't listen to ur advice and warnings. And she will dabble into sex.
.
Look around and see all the bad influence in the society today. U need Christ to train her the right way.
.
Hebrews 5:14: But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.

TMTR:
yeah right but I did it , though it wasn't easy
Sometimes though the orphanage pays us a visit to check up on her and they can testify that she is doing great.

Put her in the best school I can find in my state, the school that she attends is also being attented by children and relatives of politicians in my state of residence , trust me she is living the life of a princess

The orphanage are now the ones telling me to adopt more but I am like nah for now maybe later in the future

So no stress

.
How much did everything cost? Pls share.

Every body brace up! Cow meat go cost very soon! And other meats will follow.

jiggaz:
“Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if he were thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck. If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having your two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire, ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’ If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame, rather than having your two feet to be cast into Gehenna, into the fire that will never be quenched— ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’ If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into God’s Kingdom with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire, ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’” ( Mark‬ ‭9:42-48‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

No one in the Bible preached more about Hell than Jesus. Jesus is the embodiment of God’s grace and truth, and yet He talks about Hell.

Love warns because love doesn’t want to see loved ones suffer harm.

If from your home window you saw your loved one crossing the road downstairs, and a speeding vehicle was charging towards them, wouldn’t you shout out an urgent warning to them?

Jesus warned about Hell because He knows how terrible that place is for the tormented souls.

It is a place that is so torturous, that it is better to cut off your hands, feet and gouge out your eyes, than to end up in Hell. Think about that!

Many are not preaching about Hell correctly. Yes it’s hot and full of undying worms, but only an unbeliever can go there upon death.

Preaching about Hell is powerful in evangelism. It presents the problem that mankind needs saving from. Why would a person think he needs to be saved, if he doesn’t know the consequence of not being saved?

Preaching about Hell should be appropriately combined with the truth about the Ten Commandments of the Law—that we have all sinned and failed to keep them.

Because God is so holy, He cannot allow sinful man in His presence, so the departed spirit of a sinner must be imprisoned in Hell, forever separated from the joys of Heaven. The spirit is eternal and never ceases to exist, so the torment continues forever.

If committing a crime against an earthly king is deserving of death, then what punishment is fitting for committing a lifetime of sins against the King of Heaven and earth?

God is exceedingly patient towards sinners, giving them chances throughout their lifetime to hear about Jesus, and to seek the true God in prayer.

The Ten Commandments must be kept perfectly in both thought (inward) and deed (outward) if one desires to be justified through it. One transgression is enough to condemn a person to Hell.

“For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all. For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not commit murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.” (James‬ ‭2:10-11‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

It is impossible for man to keep the Law, because of sin in the flesh that we inherited from Adam. From the moment we were born, we were tainted by sin and pre-disposed to commit sin.

Left to ourselves, we would surely be condemned to Hell.

But because God loves us—His creation who are made in His image, He sent Jesus to pay the full price of our sins, so that we would not have to bear the punishment ourselves.

Our sins were laid upon Jesus Christ at the cross, and God the Father poured out His fiery wrath against sin upon Jesus at the cross. He bore your punishment, so that you can go free.

Jesus was then raised from the dead on the third day, never to die again, to proclaim that your sins have really been paid in full.

Had He not been a perfect substitute for you, He wouldn’t have been raised to eternal life in a glorified body.

There would be no righteous basis for that to happen if He was a sinner.

But because He is sinless, Death had no claim over Him. He rose victoriously, testifying that all our sins have been forgiven.

When you place your faith in Jesus as Lord, you’re accepting Jesus’ payment on your behalf, and you are forgiven of all the sins that you will ever commit.

Think about it: when did Jesus die for you? When your parents were not even born yet. All your sins were future sins, and He bore the punishment for them all.

All charges that were formerly against you are cleared because they were imputed to Jesus at the cross.

Through faith in Him, you are reborn as a perfectly righteous spirit, adopted into God’s own family.

You are reconciled to God, and will enjoy eternal life with Him.


Hell is real, but preachers need to stop using it to intimidate born-again believers into behavior modification! Fear and insecurity can never produce the fruit of holy living. Only the Gospel truly transforms!

We have to keep hearing the good news of how through Jesus’ finished work at the cross, all our sins have been totally forgiven. It is only through the revelation of believing how great this forgiveness you have received is, that you will produce the good fruit of loving God and fellow men.

Once in a while, pause and remind yourself how great is this salvation you have received. You have been snatched out of Hell’s mouth, and safely placed in Christ, at God’s right hand in Heaven.

“Rescue those who are being led away to death! Indeed, hold back those who are staggering to the slaughter! If you say, “Behold, we didn’t know this”; doesn’t he who weighs the hearts consider it? He who keeps your soul, doesn’t he know it? Shall he not render to every man according to his work?” (Proverbs‬ ‭24:11-12‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

U are preaching heresy. There is no gospel/grace/salvation without behavior modification! Even born again shud be reminded and warned to repent from old nature. If u think u stand, examine urself least u fall.
.

It is only through the revelation of believing how great this forgiveness you have received is, that you will produce the good fruit of loving God and fellow men.

.
Pure lie. Very myopic preaching. That is not the only way to make people produce good fruits. The bible severally, have used the coming anger of God to warn people about sin.
.
It is this type of preaching that produce born agains that are sinners. No wonder many churches 2day hardly preach against sin, even the glaring sin of immodest dresses right inside the church! God will judge u all.

abouzaid:
What do you think about this idea of irrigating cucumber using a knapsack?

.
It has to be small scale. And it will be very stressful.

Farmerakinloye6:
... I vex myself today no be small! Here is the gist, my prayer before I got to market this morning was to see my Cucumber (9 bags) sell at 7.5k. on getting there, buyers were rushing and begging me to sell for 8k, a colleague I met in market called me to Corner and said "he has been selling 9k, so I should not spoil market" I nodded in agreement. So I put my price at 8.5k, 15 minutes later another 20 bags enter market, and the owner put 7k tag on it own. The buyers were like I should collect 7.5k because my own is the darkest green. To cut the story short, I sold 3 bags 8k, 2bags 7.5k, 2bags 7k and 2bags 6k.

.
U were lucky oo. The market is highly dynamic.

Samdo4life:
pls am from anambra I am interested in farming we can partner and agive something .

.
No partnership available now oo. And the lands here is almost finished.
