Russell145: I really like what the OP, soloxam and the rest are doing here. I have been going thru the thread fr some time nw and I gat to say, I was motivated.
My mum has abt 7hectares of land in Edo state which has been fallowing fr sme time nw. I decided to try out wat I have been reading here. I wanted to buy some seeds frm mr soloxam but the small money that I saved frm my feeding in schl was nt enough, checking transport and everything, so I just bought some at the market in Benin.....abt 4000 seeds or so. Fortunately fr me, by the time I travelled to my mum's villa, they jst finished clearing her land and I quickly planted the seeds I bought. That was around semptember19-23. I also took sme to my dads place in Abia state where I cleared the land and planted there also. Just want to see which of the regions will be best fr watermelon's growth. Though it has been raining almost everyday there....bt I was able to get sme pics of the ones that have germinating.
#these ones were planted last week monday being 5th of october and they've produced sme leaves as at 12th wen I went to check them.
Pavore9: Did you get to watch the Canola oil episode on Smart Farm few weeks ago? I hear someone is coming over to Kenya from Nigeria very soon to come understudy the cultivation of the seeds, harvesting and processing into oil and packaging. It is said Canola seeds matures for harvest within 90days and a acre gives 2 tonnes at harvest from which 500 litres of canola oil is processed from. Saw a litre at the supermarket earlier in the week selling for N850.
I watched it and i also have it in my collection....the video is below:
Some cashew farmers on Sunday said they recorded huge sales and made profits from cashew nuts during the 2015 cashew season.The National Cashew Association of Nigeria, NCAN, told the News Agency of Nigeria on Sunday in Lagos that the current global market trends showed an increase in demand for cashew.The association’s spokesperson, Sotonye Anga, said that this was due to Good Agricultural Practice and improvement introduced to farmers in 2014.“We are glad to witness the prosperity of cashew farmers in Nigeria. It goes a great deal to show that NCAN is working and in collaboration with government and our development partners.“The current global market trends show an increasing and strong demand for cashew and Nigeria will continue to deliver its quota and remain relevant in the cashew world.
“I therefore, urge our cashew farmers nationwide to be serious with the cashew business and be committed to GAP and quality improvement protocols so as to get the cash in cashew.“It is obvious that local cashew farming and processing holds a great potential for national economic growth, development, employment creation and better income for farmers in rural areas,” he said.According to Mr. Anga, with little more steps to support the sub-sector by the Federal Government, cashew will soon become the number one cash crop in Nigeria.He said, “We hope to do much more for the cashew sector and create more prosperity for our cashew farmers, cashew processors, traders and exporters.’’Mr. Anga said that Africa produced over 50 per cent of the world’s cashew and Nigeria was among the top three largest cashew producers in Africa.
He said about 400,000 hectares of land was being used for cashew production across the country.Mr. Anga, however, noted that Nigeria’s annual yield per hectare was low because the nation’s current annual production stood at 150,000 tonnes of raw cashew nuts.He said the association was moving forward by rejuvenating cashew plantations and increasing the area of land under cashew production in Nigeria.He said the recent successes of cashew farmers in some parts of Kogi State had further encouraged the association to continue its drive to empower cashew farmers nationwide.He said cashew farmers were already clearing their farms for the 2016 season.Some cashew farmers in Umoni Village, Ofu Local Government Area in Kogi said on telephone that they were happy with the development as their lives had become better.A cashew farmer, Samuel Haruna, said he was able to roof his family house with the sales he recorded from the 2015 cashew season.Mr. Haruna, who had been in the cashew business for more than 20 years, said he never really made profit from selling raw cashew nuts as much as he made in 2015 season.
“I was able to buy 14 bundles of roofing zinc to roof my family house. I have been involved in cashew farming for 20years and I never had it this good.“This 2015 cashew season was really good for me and for my people, I realised good money from the sale of cashew.“We cashew farmers from Umoni village are very happy; we are pleased with the activities of NCAN and all the efforts at improving cashew farmer’s livelihood.“This year I made good money from my cashew farm for the first time. Not just me but other cashew farmers made good money too,” he said.A 30-year-old cashew farmer, Joel Thomas, said that he bought a jeep from the sale of cashew recently.Another cashew farmer, also from Umoni Village, Ibrahima Sule, said he bought a Toyota car from the sale of cashew in 2015.A 35-year-old, Isaac Idanyi, said he was able to build a four-bedroom flat from the sale of cashew nuts.
Do you know anywhere I can get processed cashew nuts (the type in the second picture) around Oyo State
Pavore9: We can't wait on government, creative minds can come up with programmes with a refreshing delivery as against the NTA's insipid presentations. l know such programmes would be a hit amongst Nigerians. lanre2009 knows how the presenter of Seeds of Gold, makes it interesting as he puts fun into it and moreover there are many other agro related programme in different TV stations competing for viewership. Like you said there are lots of untapped territories in Nigeria.
I have copies of some agric videos ( seeds of gold, smart farm, vermiculture, etc) I am willing to give free copies to anyone in and around Lagos. Hope this will make someone come up with such a program in Nigeira. Any interested person should send me a PM.
Pavore9: That dude is making N400k monthly from that space. He sells his earthworms for N4,000 per kilo. Is there any agro-related TV programme in Nigeria in Seed of Gold's format?
Pavore9: It is common in supermarkets here. There is a lady who owns a farm of it and she sells @ N160 per kilo.
I really look forward to visiting Kenya for more extensive training after getting the basics here in Nigeria. I now have all the episodes of SEEDS OF GOLD that was uploaded to YOuTube.... :
jethro2: The farm is a continuous process. The training has been ongoing since May. Trainee comes and do their own practical. They learn from the previously planted and still transplant or sow their own crops. What you see is at different stages in the farm. The tomatoes and cabbage has been planted by previous trainees.
Thanks for the heads up. God continually bless and increase you....any update on the cauliflower?
luvinhubby: I would not do that Milemaster thing if i were you. You do not compare the experience of one who has been handling and driving Honda vehicles for upwards of 10yrs to one who just got one 9 months ago, the effects of wrong use of fluids in engines and gears takes a while to manifest in cars, that it your engine still runs well does not mean some things are not giving way gradually.
@luvinhubbby @gazzuzz: So will you recommend i use Honda 5W20 OEM engine oil to service my 2006 Honda Accord (4 cylinders)?
I have the PDF manual for my car too, i will surely check it.
mexxy1: I always get mine from konga. They deliver to me at home (I'm in Rivers state) and I usually use the pay on delivery option. As per the quantity required, refer to your vehicle owners manual. I have the PDF versions for '01 & '03 Accord, '04 Acura MDX & '04 Honda Pilot (which I use).
mexxy1: As much as I respect his (Gazzuzz's) opinion, I'll advice in your interest that you stick to the manufacturers' specification on ANY THING or part of your vehicle. If there is any need to do otherwise, they will release a bulletin to that effect. Note that the Honda ATF Z1 was replaced with ATF DW1 by the manufacturers... Honda. I've use milemaster 5W 20 since I took delivery of my vehicle in January with no issues whatsoever and I even do my oil changes myself.
Where can I be this brand of oil in Lagos. And how much does it cost. How many litres will I require to service my 2006 Honda accord.
GAZZUZZ: I have my reservations on 5W20 please use 5W30 please.
Buy your scanner, scan vehicle and post codes.
Bro, the manufacturer oil for my Honda Accord 2006 is 5w20, could you please share some of the reservations you have for this oil. And would it be wise of me to use this 5W30 despite the manufacturer specified 5w20. This is my first time of servicing the car since i got it close to 2 months now. Thanks.
You can only transfer to another GTBank Euro dorm Acccout...
larez: Okay, still a little confused about these Policies. I have about 14,000 Euro available for sale in my Domiciliary account with GTB. These are foreign inflows. How do I transfer to a potential buyer in Euro?
