@ yinka> u can get readymade buyers by reaching out to all the feedmillers in ijebu and ota axis.just find a poultry or piggery farmer from those axis they can get u contacts of the millers.

Thank you very much. I appreciate this. One marketing strategy i have discovered is that whenever you start visiting the feed millers, they tends to offer ridiculous price that does not even cover the production cost. I have been to Ikorodu, Ota and some few ones. But we are not relenting. Thank you

The late rain has also be a very great blessing.

The cucumber are doing great. I have been trying to upload the picture at two weeks old but couldnt. I will still try again. It needs constant spraying with insecticides. The leaf attracts insects fast. The recommended spraying interval is every two weeks. But we look out for spot on the leaf to decide the spraying

waka2:
how is your cucumber doing,pls update im learning.
