Hello Jhetro... Your thread on "Tomato Marketing and Trading" has actually got me to register on Nairaland for the first time in years although I have always been the non-participatory type. I read that thread from page 1 to 19 and stumbled upon this one when I was searching for a more recent/active thread as with regard to the training.
I am currently a poultry farmer with a keen interest on breaking my phobia/barrier on vegetable/crop farming. Please keep us updated on the forth coming training as you are guaranteed to have a candidate from Rivers State for subsequent trainings.
Lastly, I hope students will get to meet you during the training sessions because for me, that is priceless. Kind Regards

I am glad you are motivated by the tomato thread.
We are rounding up the second week for the one month training. Hopefully next training has been schedule for the month of July. Precisely first week of July.
We will be looking forward to meeting you at the training.
By Gods grace I will be fully on around for the training period to interact with students.
You are highly welcome

I have been battling with uploading the training pictures from my side. I guess i may have to leave it for the trainee to do justice to that at their leisure.
Will still find a way to post later

practical on farm training .

Last week training pictures will be uploaded as soon as the network allows. We hope to get that across tomorrow by Gods grace

Training proper begins by the second day starting with our Nursery making.
40% of expected yield from our vegetable planting can be achieved through good and proper management starting from the nursery.
Most farmers use broadcasting methods of making nursery.
Some of the disadvantaged of broadcasting method is that
1. Vegetables competes for the nutrients that is available
2. The strongest broods tramples on the weaklings in the struggle for sunlight and water
3. The germination rates are greatly reduced
This methods is also referred to as survival of thr fittest.
New methods of vegetable nursery making was introduced.
Each trainee now has the mandates to prrepare their own nursery beds for diferent vegetables.

First day was introduction, familiarity network e. t.c
We have trainee from Lagos, Ibadan, Ilorin and to my amazement some trainees from Anambra and Delta.
One of our trainee who could not later meet up due to circumstances travelled from Benin.
Now i believe if given the oppourtunity and the back up our Nigerians are hard workers.

Fhemmmy:
Cant wait to see pix and do some e-learning

Lots and lots of learning and pictures. So unfortunate network has not been that favourable. But will try to do some justice

This is the first of a kind fully private organised Agribusiness training by Youths and for the Youth in Nigeria! My company, Agritechnovate Solutions is proud to be part of this great epoch making event, we will provide Agribusiness management trainings on writing an effective business plan, project proposal, effective farm planning and setup and post harvest loss management...there is an opportunity to recruit the best students who wish to join our network of young Agribusiness professionals with an opportunity to make monthly income from managing short term fruits and vegetable farms, after their training! There is not an excuse for you not to apply today.

It amazes me when this kind of offers are online and yet youth are all over complaining of being unemployed.
They would rather go from aptitude test to aptitude test and from interviews to interviews.
How i wish more youth can make the bold move and get out of their comfort zone.
Nigeria is richly bless.
Thanks for creating the great oppourtunity

Time to get our hands dirty

Look here Mr Nate Farms or whatever you are...Stop this silly flooding of your advert on this thread because it's really irritating reading your jagorns. Go and buy advert space from seun if you really want to advertise your company and that is when serious people who need your services will contact you.

Thank you oooo
What most people don't realise is that some habits portrays them as childish and irresponsible.
Its a big dent on ones image

Davidelect15:
Please any buyer who is interested in buying a bulk of watermelon should contact me to this: 08061274388. the farm is situated in Oyo state.......
you can contact me so we discuss it out..... thanks

Water melons are sold in trucks eg cabstar full or pick up. You must have plant several acres before you can sell like that. However if you have small quantity, you will be at the mercy of the middle man.
You might have to sell in pieces to retailers who will dictate price to you.
If incase your watermelon will be up to a truck full of pick up or cabstar, I can give you contact no of agent in mile 12 that will sell for you at the current market price.
10% of the whole sales goes to him.
You will also pay the off loaders and market tax.
Cheers
