Agriculture › Re: If watermelon is so profitable, why are farmers not cultivating it commercially? by knostbrown01(m): 7:10pm On Apr 11, 2016 |
DeLaRue: It seems people make like N250,000 per acre after 4 months of hard toil and hand-in-mouth suspense not knowing whether disease will destroy the watermelon plants overnite. Agree with Op, for the effort and risk involved, the reward is somewhat low.
Probably not bad if you are a subsistence full time farmer and live in a village or small town and have modest aspirations. Or you want to do it part time, which appears to carry even more risk.
If you can put the same effort into one acre of tomato (assuming 4,000 plants per acre) and you achieve 3kg yield per plant, that should give you 12,000 kg of tomatoes. Now, if you can plan for your tomato plants to fruit between May and June when wholesale price is around N250 per kg, you should end up with about N3 million. Even if you reduce that by N1m, you still end up with N2 million. This is still almost 10 times better than you get with watermelon!
One thing about watermelon though is its ubiquituos presence in almost every street shops these days. Same cant be said about cucumber...at least in my state. Not many seem to buy cucumber in my state, as most of the ones I see look stale and unfresh, perhaps due to lack of sale.
Based on my own careful assessment...pound for pound, the most profitable vegetable to plant in Southern Nigeria is tomato, PROVIDED:
1. You can get a decent yield - our hot & humid weather is not as good for tomatoes as the weather in the far northern states
2. You make sure your tomato arrives between May & June. Anything outside of these 2 months, you could be in big trouble. Pls, how many month does it take tomatoes to reach harvesting level? |

Texcoco: [color=#1980BC] Because it is risky,highy technical and cumbersome..we planted watermelon once though it was profitable but we found out it was relatively useless at intrinsic value per weight than most other crop we had forwent..A 50 Kg basket of tomatoes is much more valuble than 50 kg watermelon load and it gets worse when you look at it per tonne..this precludes the constant dailiy vigil you have to undergo to get a good watermelon harvest which is so not like other profit crops....Tis not worth the stress, we rather plant cucumber. [/color] are you saying cucumber is more profitable than watermellon. |

MIPNIG: ports, U.S. crude shipments to foreign buyers have stalled.
At the same time, imports into the U.S. jumped to a three year high in what looks to be a reversal of a yearslong decline in the amount of foreign crude brought into the American market. According to the report, refineries are choosing to buy imports instead of West Texas Intermediate (WTI), an oil variant produced in the US. One of the major beneficiaries is Nigeria, which is regaining lost market share. Imports from Nigeria surged to 559,000 barrels a day in mid-March, compared with an average of 52,000 in all of 2015.
Thisday: http://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2016/04/01/nnpc-targets-650000bpd-refining-capacity-opens-bids-for-co-location-of-plants/ SO That's the reason we are selling all our crude oil production to USA. we r not getting out of this mess sooner and only God can save us |
