AgricultureWhy Do You Want Start Oil Palm Plantation ? by Karbswell(op): 3:14pm On Dec 24, 2023
WHY DO YOU WANT TO START OIL PALM PLANTATION

Knowing fully well that oil palm plantation is a long term project that will not yield any returns during the first and third year of it's establishment which is characterized by huge financial investment and labour in the case of large plantation .As a farmer you need to ask yourself why you want to invest in a long term perennial crop like oil palm plantation .If the reason is to make immediate return then oil palm plantation is not for you . We have seen cases of farmers and cooperate organisation that we set up oil palm plantation for but abandoned it during the second and third year thereby rendering the project unproductive and lost of investment .Asian countries who came to Nigeria in 60th and 70th to obtain our local seeds dura and pisifera which they improved the quality to produce the hybrid seeds have never relent in their efforts to improve the standard of their farm management and setting up more oil palm plantation which to day makes them the largest producer and net exporter of refined palm oil .

LETS LOOK AT WHAT CATEGORY OF PEOPLE CAN CULTIVATE OIL PALM PLANTATION

The category of people that can cultivate oil palm tree are people that have farmlands at the rural side .having farmland either purchased or inherited will give you a leverage to grow oil palm tree but that is not enough .Many farmers or would- be- farmers from the cities always assumed that once you have hectares of farmland and funds you can go into oil palm farming .For you to become successful in oil palm farming you need to have patience,perseverance and most importantly you have to be very hardworking if not you will be forced to abandoned the plantation project half way .It is very hard to loose money growing oil palm tree but the aspect of waiting for 3 to 4 years to start making returns on investment is where many farmers and investors failed .There are many successful and productive oil palm plantation and there are still many failed and unproductive oil palm plantation in Nigeria ,what differentiate the two is not lack of funds but lack of patience that one need to endure before the plant start fruiting .

If you have patiently read this post ,you should know by now whether you are worthy to start an oil palm plantation or not .Agriculture is time bound and oil palm farming is a game of patience and hard work .You do not necessarily need to start with 10 acres ,you can start even with few acres or plots ,Learn to start small and grow big and you can be rest assured that oil palm farming will reward you by providing you with sustainable wealth that you and your children can always depend on .

Do you know that 70% of palm oil and vegetable oil we are still consuming in Nigeria is obtained from the local palm trees planted in the early 70th by our great grand parent and the families that owns them are still profiting from them ? .What's now delaying you from establishing this type of project that can sustain you and your family within the next few years ?

All you need to do is to order few seedlings of our improved tenera and supergene oil palm seedlings and you are rest assured that I will guide you and provide you with information that are key to running a successful oil palm plantation in Nigeria .We can waybill to anywhere in Nigeria .

Oil palm farming as been the bedrock of our economy for many years back but the discovery of crude oil as made us to neglect this farming business hence making Nigeria a mono economy nation .Our neglect of this venture as brought us where we are today and the implication is steering us at the face .it is now time to go back to the farm to claim our position as major producer and exporter of refined palm oil and palm kernel oil .

AgricultureCooperate Organisation And Private Business Owners Can Diversify Into Oil Palm F by Karbswell(op):
Are you an agric enthusiast and you are still deliberating on which aspect of agric you should invest your money in 2024 .

Let me help you to identify oil palm plantation as one of the most lucrative venture in agric with very low risk factor that can create a generational wealth for you and your family .

Why oil palm plantation ?

The risk factor involve is very low when compared to other aspect of agriculture .it is a very rugged plants that can survive for many decades .the only identifiable risk associated with an oil palm plantation is fire out .to prevent this one will need to remove weed the entire plantation as soon the rainfall ends for the year .

It require one time planting .the farmer does not need to till the land Every year to replant an oil palm tree except he wants to expand .cultivating short term crops require the farmer to till the land Every year but the case is different when it comes to oil palm plantation .This enable the farmer to save alot of money which goes to mentainance of the plantation till it mature for harvesting with 3 to 4 years .


It requires little labour to mentain the farm .After the plantation as been set up the farmer require labourers to weed the farm 3 times or 4 times in a year depending on the volume of rainfall .

Creation of generational wealth .having an oil palm plantation is like printing your own money year in year out .An oil palm plantation well mentained could create a generation wealth for the farmer and his family for many decades .

As cost of living increases and inflation continue to push up the prices of commodity ,the price of palm oil and palm kernel oil follow similar trend .This provide a form of reward system to the farmer and give him a leverage to meet his family demand and responsibility as the economy bites hard .

Proven as retirement package .during your active days of work and service year when you are able to use some proceed of your work to purchase farmland and set up few acres of oil palm plantation this could serve as a retirement package for you and a sustainable way to live a good life after retirement .

A better way of diversification .Cooperate organisation and private business owner could also own an oil palm plantation as a means of diversification .Companies that are currently struggling due to increase in cost of production and companies that are striving and doing well can also diversify into oil palm plantation and within 3 to 4 years it can create another stream of income to the company or private business owner . Mentaining an oil palm plantation in the rural side is relatively cheaper than running a company which comes with payment of salaries,taxes,royalties, electricity and other unforeseen contingencies .

Our services include

Sales of farmland
Sales of hybrid oil palm seedlings
Farm set up and general consultation .

AgricultureRe: Potential Of Oil Palm Farming by Karbswell(op): 8:20pm On Dec 06, 2023
The oil palm tree will do well in sandy loamy soil .if you can support it with manure it will help the plant to be more productive .

It is very hard to steal from an oil palm tree however you should provide some level of security against theft .


I am from kwara state .There are farmlands available to cultivate oil palm trees in my region

POTENTIAL OF OIL PALM FARMING AND ITS FINANCIAL IMPLICATION /ACRE


Growing oil palm tree could be one of the best investment and retirement plan for you now that you are actively working or still in service .The main focus is that by the time you are due for retirement the oil palm tree plantation will be mature to become productive within 3 to 4 years after farm establishment.Oil palm tree is more productive in the entire Southern states of Nigeria and they also perform well in the North central part of Nigeria .Oil palm tree product such as palm oil has one of the highest demand locally and internationally and if done on large scale it has the potential to earn the country foreign exchange and increase Nigeria's GDP on the macro economy level  .



If you are a civil servant ,business owner and even a student , oil palm farming is one of the lucrative agro investment with low risk factor you can put your money into .it is a long term project that creates generational wealth however it is never a get rich quick farming scheme .the cost of setting up and oil palm farm is reduced if one owns a farmland in the village or one as already bought the farmland before the project is conceived .


Since the discovery of crude oil in Nigeria the cultivation of oil palm tree as decline tremendously and so badly that Nigeria as become a mono-economy nation and with the current economic challenges that bedevilled this nation which cause decline in the value of naira it is high time we should go back to the cultivation of this cash crop as a means to diversity the economy of this nation and earn forex .As a private business owner,civil servant and cooperate organisation there is no better time to own an oil palm plantation than now .

An acre oil palm tree is capable of yielding between 400 to 600 litres of palm oil .However yield is determined by several factors such as farm management and geographical location interms of weather and rainfall .hence the farmer should lower his yield expectation during the first year harvest to 400 litres .
400lit x 1000 naira per litre
=400,000

Hence,projected first year revenue which is not constant is 450,000 naira .As the oil palm tree continue to increase in size it produces more bunches which yield more oil and increases the farmers annual revenue .
