Premier Seeds depot/rep is on Ijoko Road. Their rep is Dorcas - 0810 541 6773. She can supply you Oba 98, Oba Super 6, Oba Super 4 etc at N375 per kg.

i hope they have vegetable seed because that is what i need for now. already got my maize seed SUWAN at ministry of Agric Abbatoir

stagger:
The website of Premier-seeds.com was updated recently and the phone contacts are no longer there. I have the phone number of the marketing manager but I am not sure I can post his number here without his permission. Once I get it, I can put up the info here.

He should have a list of all the company branches and their sales depots in Nigeria.

please help us contact him Asap or ask him about the address and post it here

TokyoBulls:
You can buy directly from Premier Seeds depots in Ibadan or Sango or Kaduna or any of their depots. They sell at N375 per kg. You can also request that the sales reps send to you after you pay them. Some seed dealers here too sell Oba 98

Please Where Is Premier Seeds Depots In Sango? And If I Can Get Their Contact No.

Incase Of Overcrowding, Is Transplanting Allowed?

[quote author=EntMirror post=57692001]Why do I need to waste over 18 years of my life reading and cramming theories that will never be used in the real world? Why would I be in a system that prepares me into being an employee, into being a slave? A lot of people might say that everyone must not be an entrepreneur, my response is usually brutal. Of course everyone can't be an entrepreneur, everyone can't be rich.

I just feel pity whenever I go around campus at night, watching students with their lamps and books, reading like their life depend on it. I'm not against education, I'm against school..

It's true that school teaches you how to write essay, how to solve basic trigs and sums.. But that doesn't discard the fact that time and resources used are just wasted.

May The Good God Bless U Abundantly For This Writeup. U just told the bitter truth

omolorlarh:
It is called corchorus.It does need to be parboiled before planting.Some people "soak it in warm water" not parboil to destroy every inhibitor that will prevent it from germinating. If you get your seed from a sure source then you don't need to soak in "warm water"
Make your beds,if you have dried poultry droppings or cow dung mix it with the soil then plant your seeds by sprinkling in it on the bed but make sure you mix your seed with a small portion of soil before planting.There are different methods of planting though but the one I just told you is the broadcasting method.After planting,water it immediately then continue wateribg "every morning and evening" till you harvest.regular weeding is important. google for more informations too.

You can ask more questions

Thank U Very Much My Brother abi its my sister cos i use to feel all farmers are male. Does That Goes For All The Other Vegetables Like Shoko?

menwongo:
Well, I don't know what's ewedu. English name please

i dnt knw that also, its that yoruba draw soup

menwongo:
Just make bed and plant your vegetable leaves' seed. It needs no nursery.
Add poultry droppings when making the bed.
You can as well apply nitrogen fertilizer after one month of germination.

i heard some seed need to be parboiled before planting like ewedu, just not sure maybe its just the ewedu

babyboy4every1:
1. your point of lay should start laying eggs as soon they start mating. some can even lay eggs same week you stock them ( they must have been fertilized b4 you get them).
2. Usually, for AA, the eggs hatch 2-3 weeks after laying, with a range of 10-31 days, depending on temperature. A. achatina has a high hatching rate of 90+%; even 100% hatch-ability is not uncommon. for AM, The incubation period, from egg to hatchling, is around 4 weeks. also depend on temperature.
3. get from another farmer in lagos or someone that can get it from the village. dont buy from the market cos the rate of mortality will be damn high.

Thank U Brother

Off course they are, just go to any market near you. Live chicken stands, you will c handlers there.
Or better still, buy a mechanical defeathering machine and DIY.

EMMAACHILE:
I process them for my personal consumption. They is done by paying 50 naira each for killing and dressing a bird.
I store for at most 4 months (3 broilers a week consumption) to cater for my family needs.

For those that want to sell, it sold to frozen feed stores where it is priced per kg. Lokoja is about 950-1000 per kg dressed bird.

do u knw maybe those that help kill and dress are in lagos.

EMMAACHILE:
Day 75
Coming to the end of my broiler project. Will trim about 40 of 46 broilers by weekend.

I will try to take all the weights and pictures before then.

About 12 bags used to date to feed 46 broilers.

Other updates will be coming up as I round up this thread.
