dejia: Jeffmyson,
Do you say N1,300 for 70kg? Thats like 2 basket for N1,300?. Thats N18.50 per kg? That's correct and can even be lower sometimes, like yesterday we bought for N1,200 per basket (Big size Basket) the price depends finally on quality. Cheers!! |

Just as I initially promised, I finally started a pilot project for tomatoes marketing. We have developed a model which we intend to spread across Nigeria. We have started a trail run in Abuja to better understand how the final system will work. Just this week we have started delivering to wholesale markets at least 5,000 Kgs (100 Basket) of tomatoes daily which we are also able to sell of almost immediately.
There are challenges in the marketing of the commodity, one of which is lack of standardized quality, quantity and price mechanism. From our brief sojorn so far, I have come to realise that the farmers pay for the risks involved in the business as most dealers are not willing to offer better prices for the produce for fear of losing money either during produce transit or flooding of the market with products which may undercut their margins! Imagine right now we currently buy almost 70KG of tomatoes from farmers in Zaria and Kano for around N1,300.
I am sharing my experience so that farmers of the commodity will better understand the marketing aspects and it challenges!
Though the tomatoes we are trading on is for the wholesale mass market. |

I was doing a transaction a few days ago and after concluding the transaction, you know what happened? The Naira to Dollar exchange further plummeted within a few hours from 209 to 213.
My transaction was destroyed because the customer was not ready to bankroll that increase, and moreover anything could still happen.
If you know how many people are becoming impoverished because of the crisis in the finance sector you will understand what I mean.
This same crisis in the finance sector may force the FG to stop paying further tranches of this same Youwin program. It is time our Government declares a red alert in our finance sector because if they dont, all the people calling ourselves millionaires as a result of this Youwin program may still find ourselves in penury.
I will cast my vote based on my own careful analysis of the general policy of the incumbent and not based on what any other person thinks or the fact that I got some money from you or not.
I have a mind of my own and anybody that has a problem with that should deal with it.
The time has come for us to have a critical eye on our leaders no matter who is there. Even if the person I voted for gets to power I will still maintain my critical stance.
A leader is not going there to play, he is going there to do serious work, they are our servant but they keep behaving like we must praise them for every little work done, even after doing half work and pillaging our resources.

You devalue the currency in order to safe foreign reserves! What the Central Bank should even do is to totally devalue the currency rather than using our scarce reserve to artificially "fix the exchange rate". The real value of the naira to the dollar is around N250/$. Secondly the value of a country currency is not a measure of the economy growth! Japan, China all have devalued currency in order to encourage exports and discourage imports! Nigeria should tow that path! you are busy shouting "change", you should remember a few things before you dive into an ocean that will swallow you! Did egyptians, Tunisia, Libya,Yemen, shout change! what did they get? What we need is progressive change my friend! It is foolhardy for anyone to believe that the bunch of thugs propagating the message of change today are not devils!

I am in plantain flour production. I have used my first tranche to procure land for two years (the landlord insisted on two years payment). That done, I need detail information on how I can register trademark for my business, processes, costs, and duration before I get the certificate.
Did any one of you did any registration with the local government where your business is to be located? If yes, what registration is that? Aside Nafdac and Trademark, what other registration is compulsory before I start production.
Thanks in advance.
CC; Chukwuka12, stagger, Mohammed83, Denn, bizhub, favouryoul... Hi Terry! The trademark is done in Abuja at Federal Ministry of trades and Investments! Its a simple procedures that requires you to register your custom marks/logo. This is necessary for Nafdac registration procedures. Go to the nearest Nafdac office in your state for detailed informations about your product registration requirements, floor plan schematics and food grade equipments requirements before proceeding further with the rented property. This will properly guide you as you begin the procedures! Incase you don't have contacts in Abuja for trademarks, PM me and i can arrange for you. You need to start processing it now as it takes time to clear! Cheers! |

Agriculture › Re: Tomato Production And Marketing. Facts Backed With Figures by jeffmyson(m): 8:01am On Jan 25, 2015 |
choiceman: Ufeolorun, dizengoff would want you to plant tomato like Beefsteak or Roma that attract a high price. The price of this type of tomato cannot be less than 400/kg. So in a planting circle of about 180days, you are expected to get 7tons by 400 will give us like NGN 2m and above. Please note that the first harvest starts at about 85 to 90 days after planting. Quantity and quality of produce depends on your expertise. With greenhouse farming and market, it is achievable You are probably right however you should realise that in preparing a feasibility study you don't use a best case scenario! You use the average case scenario and base your calculations on the market rate as if you fail to find a supermarket buyer you will have no choice but to sell in the Open market. Let me give you an instance, would you probably fund a dizengoff greenhouse if someone came to you to take a loan for the business based on the above calculations? I know for sure that there are other scenarios you would like to be included! |
Agriculture › Re: Tomato Production And Marketing. Facts Backed With Figures by jeffmyson(m): 6:44am On Jan 25, 2015 |
Ufeolorun: 1m for dizengoff Amiran kit maybe, another 300k for relevant running cost( workers),add another 300k if you don't have 2 plots so start up cost 1.6m. The kit promises. 7000kg of tomatoes all other things being equal (if you go for the nemo-neta package) A basket of tomatoes in the market is, say 50kg - 7000/50 = 140 baskets. Assume a price lower than the prevailing market rate for competitive reason (so you can get a buyer quickly)
Let take 3k5 for a basket * 140 =490k first revenue
NB. I assume the following; 7000kg would be the total from initial harvest but in real life, its likely to be the total over a multiple harvesting period
No loss atall from seed to harvest (unreal)
Lastly they would train you and leave you to it all probably after the first harvest.
The most important part of the polytunnel is the polythene and that should last about 2years depending on the quality hence you would have to buy another covering for your greenhouse
You can draw your conclusions |

It takes within a year. One just need to put in some work Can you prove this with hard data? Can you do a computational analysis showing the possibility of breaking even within 1 year? You don't need to upload it here, just do it so that you will be convinced yourself, you have to factor in the best case scenario, worst case scenario and mid point scenario and then use the average. I still maintain my stance, it will take you minimum of two years to break even and 3 years max! |

omonnakoda: How can anyone realistically export based on 1 unit of the Dizengoff system. That does not seem like a realistic option either . Let us examine some figures for any specific crop you are suggesting. What would me more realistic would be to be located close to customers and sell directly to them e.g if you think about it 8x24 =1/3 of a plot so if so have land around Agege then growing tomatoes and selling directly by retail is actually a more productie use of that land than building property and housing tenants. That scenario is certainly worth analysing. I do not disagree with you about the cost but a 3 year pay back period is not an unreasonable time the key parameter is what is the lifespan of the system. In business we have to be realistic and not sentimental. We analyse based on what things cost not what they should cost.
If we think of any business with a major capital outlay on a depreciating asset e.g Transport (Trucks buses etc) ,how many pay back before 3 years . The reaal issue is would there still be any juice in it after 3 years? My view would then be Perhaps a more permanent structure should be built. Here I would suggest something outrageous. Imagine in lagos you build a 3 bedroom flat with AC etc would it be more profitable to rent it out to humans or to grow tomatoes in it . This should be a question of analysis with facts and figures not sentiments We are all on the same page! For instance Kenya export lots of fresh produce and most of them are grown in greenhouses. If for example the greenhouses are cheaper a lot of people would go into the business and maybe we can acquire some market share from the kenyans too. Also it is possible to own one of those greenhouses in naija and say maybe grow strawberries instead of tomatoes and you might breakeven within 2 years since strawberries are imported and expensive too but all these requires market analysis and feasibility! |

Pavore9: Though Dizengoff is ripping off l suggest whoever is setting up a greenhouse to make sure it is high yielding & crops that are expensive in the open market. Will try & upload short videos of young Kenyans growiog cucumber & capsicum in a greenhouse. My take on the issue has always being the same! It will take minimum of 3 years to break even with the Dizengoff systems. I suggest anyone who wants to buy the dizengoff system to grow crops that are not native to Nigeria for either export or expatriate market for quicker breakeven! The stuff is very expensive and fragile and I still maintain it should cost nothing more that 250k to 300k. I will advice anyone who really wants to do greenhouse farming to travel down to kenya to see first hand how it works! It will be worth your investment. |
