With Christmas around the corner, what would will like as a dream christmas gift.

Make a wish but moderate one abeg.

U just might get it.

I'm to embark on a building project around Abeokuta. I will like those with the technical know-how or experience to help on these topic.

Will it be cheaper to have the blocks done on site or buy the ready made ones, if fabricating the blocks on site will be cheaper;
How many pieces of blocks will i get from a tipper load of sand
How many bags of Cement will be required per tipper
What will be the labourer wages

I hope answers to the above questions will be beneficial to other readers as well.

Many thanks

Hello Fellow Nairalanders,

I want to start a milling business (i.e grinding elubo and will appreciate any advice or professional insight of people that might have been into the trade or know some know how.

What are the equipment(s) involved
How lucrative is the bussiness

I just believe in the informative strength of naira land.

Many thanks.

Put your money where your mouth is,

Importation may be your best bet for a start, when your startup health check have been guaranteed you can expand into exportation but from xperience you are better-off with importation.

I may sound somewhat pessimistic but you can never be too careful.

considering how you raised your money, will you want to loose it cheap with pain?

A word is enough for the wise.

All the best.

Hello abbey,
I am happy with the progress you are making. But do not be deceived farming is more rewarding when u form groups to share experience. That is y I prefer group meetings where it more interactive. Always remember that management of input cost is one of the. Key responsibility of a farmer.
your land is costly at 250. I got my land not too far from LAGOS at 100k per acre with electricity and tarred road up to d land. I am presently into piggery. And cattle farming. I still insist u call me I wont charge u nothing but give u candid advice

Hope you are keeping well, Just a quick reminder in respect of getting the contact we discussed.

Tnx,
