Please talk to Malix (he is a nairalander) on 08091525901, he is the techinical guy that installed the free to air cable for me, maybe he can come to set it up for you at ibadan.

Pavore9:
NTV will start airing Seeds of Gold on Wednesdays (don't know the time yet) but it will be bigger than Smart farm going by the success they have recorded in their weekly magazine which is a pullout in Saturday Nation newspaper, making it the most sought-after newspaper in Kenya every Saturday. So be on the look out as it would be very informative though currently travelling l will follow it up as l stream the station online.

Thanks bro, do keep me posted as soon as you have the time and day it the program will be airing.

Hi Lanre2009,

That's been noted. However, if you're buying this, you'd have to balance us $5 for Service Charge or you buy 2pcs and the Service Charge drops to $15 which you've paid already.

Cheers.[/color]

I need only one of the item i requested, in the case i cant buy one without paying additional service charge, i will like to request for a refund of the difference ($5.15), while you can go ahead and buy the other 3 items on my initial list. Please reply asap. Thanks.

Can you shed more light on your findings through the research papers. Thanks

@ Felixzo1 and other gurus in the house: Will it be possible to grow the fodder that will be used in feeding the cow/goat/cattle with HYDROPHONICS SYSTEM. I believe this system will save a lot on the cost of feeding the animals. I have attached a link to the video of one of the top people in HYDROPHONIC SYSTEMS in Kenya. Please lets talk about this possibilities.

@ felixzo1 and other gurus in the house, is it really possible to for a cow to produce 80 Liters of milk per day?

Our American cows give us 80 liters of milk daily


In this interview, Alhaji Samir Salihu Argungu who is into poultry, fishery, dairy and breeding of sheep in Sokoto, says he remains into farming to contribute his quota in making Nigeria food sufficient. Excerpts:

What prompted you to go into large scale poultry, cows, fishing and sheep farming?
First and foremost, my parents were farmers and so I grew up as a farmer. Beyond that, when I realised that most of the things we feed on in this country like rice, palm oil and other food items are imported, even the chickens and eggs that we were using in Sokoto were brought to us from Ibadan at high prices and inadequate quantity. I resolved to make sure I set up my farm to contribute towards providing food in this country. In the meantime, we are into poultry, dairy, fishery and have some sheep as well. We are into large scale selling of milk, eggs and fish. I started with 500 birds but within the first 6 months, 28 of them died. On the advice of my veterinary doctor, I increased the number to 1,000. When people knew about the farm, they started coming to buy eggs from the farm. I was again advised to buy broilers since all the 1,000 were layers, I did just that. Gradually, the farm developed to this level. Within just 8 weeks or so the broilers will mature for sell.

How many birds do you have in your farm now?
I now have 7,200 layers with only 2,000 broilers left. We do not keep the broilers for long, the moment they are matured we sell to bulk buyers and we also sell on retail price to people that buy, slaughter and prepare the chicken for buyers here.

How do you get their feeds?
Our veterinary experts are responsible for mixing their feeds. We have a mill for the processing of their feeds. We would not like to give details of how we mix their feeds, but the fact is we combine maize, soya beans, moringa leaves that we have here and some other ingredients.

What difficulties are you facing in this business?
Our major problem is when the weather is hot. You know Sokoto has harsh weather and chickens do not like heat. But from the onset we selected a site where the heat will not be much.

What informed your decision to combine sheep, cows, chicken and fish in one farm?
You are aware that most farms that combine poultry and fishery is because they use the chicken waste and meat of the dead chicken to feed the fish, we also do that. Again, all the maize we are using to produce the feed comes from our farm. We are operating a sort of integrated farm. We do not buy or apply fertiliser to our farms, instead, we use the manure from our cows and sheep, the waste from the poultry and the waste water from the fish ponds on our farms. I use to import the chicken pens, that is the cages from China India and Turkey and sell here. People come from Ondo, Bauchi and other parts of Nigeria to buy the pens from us.

Do you have access to bank loans?
I have never accessed any form of loan from any bank or government. The only assistance I know we got from government was when they gave us 500 fingerlings. I understand they gave to all the fish farms in the state. That was the only support we got from government. Farming generally is improving greatly in the state because the governor himself is a farmer and is doing a lot to encourage farmers and improve farming activities in the state. I remember when fish farmers invited him to an event, he attended and even donated large consignment of fish from his farm. He is doing a lot to farmers in this state.

How many fishes and cows do you have in the farm?
We have 50,000 tilapia and 80,000 cat fishes in this farm. We brought our cows from the United States of America specifically for dairy purpose, to produce for us in commercial quantity. We have two different varieties, those that give us 20 litres the ones that give us 80 litres milk daily. We sell fresh cow milk in the farm. We also breed the sheep for sale to interested members of the public.

https://www.aftvnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/kodi-missing.jpg

Kodi, the open source media player that so many love, has been entirely removed from the Amazon Appstore. The app was never available on the Fire TV appstore, but a few months ago, it was surprisingly approved by the Amazon Appstore for smartphones and tablets. I say surprisingly because Kodi is not in, and has never been in, the Google Play Store nor the Apple Appstore. The reasons for this are complicated, but they stem from licensing issues and Kodi’s open source nature. It’s unclear at this time why Kodi was removed and whether or not it will return.

Even though the app was never available in the Fire TV appstore, having it in the Amazon Appstore in some form allowed Fire TV owners to take advantage of a bug which caused the app to appear on the Fire TV’s homescreen, even when the app was sideloaded. I’ve been seeing word (and was in the process of confirming) that this bug had been squashed with the latest software update. Those who haven’t updated their Fire TV device to the latest software version were still able to launch Kodi from the homescreen due to its existence in the Amazon appstore.

If you’ve purchased Kodi from the Amazon Appstore in the past, it is still associated with your Amazon account, and therefore, will still appear on the Fire TV and Fire TV Stick homescreen’s “Recent” section if you’re running an older software version. Do not delete Kodi from your account using Amazon’s “Apps and Devices” page or you will not be able to repurchase it. Uninstalling it from your Fire TV or Fire TV Stick will not affect its association with your Amazon account, so uninstalling is safe to do.

That is Peter Chege, he is the number one person when it comes to hydroponics in Kenya. l remember hearing him on BBC saying he has been invited to Nigeria by a government agency.

I watched the Live at 1 News program on citizens tv. They are going to be featuring a farmer that's into WHEAT FARMING @ 7PM Nigerian time.

Ladies Is this true...

Pavore9:
SMART FARM is aired every Wednesday during the 9p.m news which is 7p.m Nigerian Time. Then Shamba Shape Up which is a show focusing on meeting the needs of the rural farmers in Kenya and it entails a make over for any chosen farm where experts are involved it airs every Saturday at 11.30a.m Nigeria Time. it is very informative. There are more in other TV Stations but they are produced in Swahili.

Thanks. You forgot to drop your contact details...

Pavore9:
Last night here in Nairobi, l watched the weekly program agribusiness programme called Smart farm and got to watch this inspiring episode focused on Vertical Sack Farming, Where a man has been farming in a 45ft by 75ft space which is not even up to half a plot was highlighted. l will just do some commentary based on the programme but it is better one watch/download the 4mins video as it would go a long way to motivate one.

The vertical sack farming will do well for crops like lettuce, curry, parsley which would fetch good returns. For every sack, a mixture of 5 wheelbarrows of soil and 5 wheelbarrows of manure is needed to fill it. The 45ft by 75ft space contains 100 bags which has Spinach growing on the sides of the bags and Parsley on the top, it takes one and half month to harvest his spinach. An average of 100 spinach seeds around planted around each sack and the owner makes N200,000 monthly from the sales of harvest from the 100 bags.

Adapting it to our local needs growing lettuce around the sides and curry on the top will do well as l know these two fetch good returns in the market........l miss fresh curry whenever l cook stew!

2. HIGH HANDEDNESS OF NCS PERSONNEL - IT NOWS SEEMS MOST OFFICERS AND MEN OF THE NCS HAVE NOW MADE IT A NORMAL THING TO STAY ON THE ROADS TO VICTIMISE INNOCENT IMPORTERS AND CLEARING AGENTS. HUNDREDS  OF VEHICLES ARE SMUGGLED INTO THE COUNTRY RIGHT UNDER THE NOSES OF CUSTOM OFFICERS WHO COLLECT BRIBES FROM THEM WHILE INNOCENT AGENTS AND IMPORTERS ARE ALWAYS VICTIMISED ESPECIALLY ALONG THE SEME ROUTE.
ALL THEY DO ALL DAY US SIT DOWN AND DEMAND FOR BRIBES AGENTS AND IMPORTERS,THESE PEOPLE ARE EVEN THREATENED AND THEY CLOSE THEIR EYES TO SMUGGLED VEHICLES.

Are you saying even though we pay the official duty rates, and collect original documents, we can still be victimized by these custom officicals

I managed to solve just eight of these puzzles. How many can u solve. Lets have fun....
