Penkelemess:
Hahahahahahaha

I feel you. But certainly, what applies in the US will not apply here in Nigeria, abi? Farming techniques (mechanisation, etc) I can accept but the seed in particular should also matter. The other thing I heard is that some farmers don’t buy the right seed out here and don’t apply the right amount of fertiliser

Well, as a scientist, I can only tell you such high yields are obtainable here. There is nothing they are doing over there that we cannot do here and achieve similar results. But let's leave the discussion at this point.

Penkelemess:
Afraid catch me! Need to do more research I guess. Perhaps if you could kindly point me in the right direction, I will take it from there

I get many of these info online. So many resources: mostly from universities in USA

By the way, I also plant maize (before someone will come here and insult me by calling me internet farmer )

What is pupuru made from?

Huh, 1 ton/ha! That must've been like one century ago!

Nigeria's average is about 2 tons/ha.

However, right here in this same Nigeria, some hit 8 tons/ha with good seeds and agronomic practices.

So, it really depends on what the farmer wants and knows. Plant maize like the pre-historic Homo habilis and you can get 100kg per hectare. Plant it like a 21st century farmer and you could even hit higher than 8 tons like they do in the Americas (USA and Chile)

Penkelemess:
My people, late on this thread but I have a serious question to ask. Been told that average maize yield is about 1 ton per hectare!! Can someone please confirm this

shariff84:
Iam back from farm yesterday night,we cut the maize all to give beans space,by next month if the beans has done,we will thresh the maize and the actually yield that I can be able get per hectare will be known.

Nice one! We can't wait to hear it.

shariff84:
...But nonetheless, the maize has done better,we will even cut it down on Sunday because it dried out...

Wow! So happy to learn this. I can't wait for the results.

Expect questions after the harvest o

PS: I asked for your contact, you are yet to send to me. Thanks

Your concerns are legitimate. However, fertilizer requirements are best based on soil tests and planting history. If the soil is fertile enough, he might not need to add as much fertilizer as you've indicated. In any case, harvest is near; we'll see the results in HD.

May God bless your farm. Amin
I have some questions and advise
What plant spacing did you use?
Is the land a virgin land?
You planted in July, how did your plant fare during the August break?

1. I think your fertilizer application is not enough. 3 bags of npk is not enough for even a 30000 plant population talkless of 50-70k
2. You did not use any insecticides some of the leaves were bad in the pics.
3. Intercropping other crops with maize is not a good idea. Although legumes are good source of nitrogen but they compete phosphorus and potassium with the maize.
4. Please endeavour to use a foliar spray for micronutrients. NPK are the major nutrient what of other important micronutrients which may not be available in your soil.

I believe the yield will definitely improve if these are taking in consideration.

Note.
2.25-2.4g of nitrogen is needed per plant
For 50k plant population
50000*2.25 = 112.5 kg of Nitrogen needed

1 bag of Npk 15:15:15 is 7.5kg of N; 7.5kg of P ; 7.5kg K
1 bag of Npk 20:10:10 is 10kg N ; 5kg P; 5kg K
1 bag of urea 46:0:0 is 23kg N

For 50000 you need a minimum of :
8 bags of npk 15:15:15 and 3 bags of urea
Or 12 bags of npk 20:10:10 only applied twice, 6 bags per application

Is it Round-up Ready?

Sampalo:
◄ Deuteronomy 14:8 ►

New International Version
The pig is also unclean; although it has a divided hoof, it does not chew the cud. You are not to eat their meat or touch their carcasses.

Jesus Christ never tasted a pork cuz he knows the Law.
What a shame on pork eaters

This law was for the Jews in those days.

Though Christianity has its roots in Judaism, they are not the same.

The Bible is not like an operation manual that you just follow hook, line and sinker; that would make Christians zombies. It also contains a lot of historical facts, (most of which has nothing to do with spirituality or Christianity).

Happy to see your posts and eager for your updates.

Please can I have your contact so I can ask some questions anytime I have issues?

Please could you ping me on Whatsapp?
I have some enquiries.
Thanks

How much?

mayhills082:
We fabricate maize dryer that uses:just 3 litters of petrol and 2 bunches of fire wood lthat is ess than N1,000 to dry 1 ton of maize in 1.30min
So why plant maize and Wait for sunshine before it dry while you can use dryer and replant twice during raining season ,bag and sell ,dry maize is usually expensive and scarse
The same machine can dry cassava, yam,any kind of vegetable, sweet potatoes, fruits , pkn etc but not for fish or meat

contact us for details 09074984693

Gave birth to them through Caesarean Section which is a very painful way to bring forth a child into this world, now hearing such news about their death was really devastating for her...

She couldn't take the pains anymore, She couldn't enjoy the joy of motherhood.

This is really painful.

Caesarian Section is not painful nah!!!! Which planet you from come sef? Hian!

Born again Christian? How did you get born again without you hearing the gospel being preached? Kindly explain

GoTV:
Even though I'm a born again Christian, i think preaching the gospel should be banned worldwide. We Christians are constituting nuisances all over the world with our hypocritical evangelism afterall we fail to practice what we preach. No muslim will do this madness in public, why are we Christians so primitive

Arrant nonsense!
Night vigil is not part of Christianity!
