Even with my irrigation, I have lost 60% of my farm.

Sangoamadioha1:
Then why did Jesus say turn the other cheek when you are slapped.
My argument is if you profess Jesus Christ then adhere to his teachings or do your thing and stop hiding under the banner of Christianity.
A non Christian (Ghandi) even practiced this with his non violent approach to provocation than the so called Christians.

Fulfillment of Prophecy: The very next verse (Luke 22:37) provides crucial context: Jesus says He must be "numbered with the transgressors". Having a few swords among the group would help cast them as revolutionaries, justifying His arrest and fulfilling Isaiah’s prophecy.

"It is Enough": When the disciples quickly produce two swords in verse 38, Jesus responds, "That is enough". Many interpret this as Jesus ending the conversation, possibly in frustration because they were taking Him too literally—two swords would never be enough for eleven men to fight an army.

A Call to Peace: The non-violent interpretation is reinforced later in the chapter (Luke 22:50-51) when Peter actually uses a sword to strike a servant, and Jesus rebukes him, saying "No more of this!" and healing the man.

Good afternoon everyone, how goes the Sunday, to my fellow farmers it's another week to plan and prepare for the rains.

Where will you farm ?
how will you farm ?
what will you farm ?
What price will you sell ?

Very important questions all farmers bear in mind this year, even as we head into the bushes.

For question number one the where, I believe I have solved that part by japa to Iwo osun states. I now work with Surging Momentum Foods.
Our Lands are private clusters bulldozed in clusters of varying acreages totaling 5000acres. Most of the land fencing has been done and the host community is multi ethnic and religious.
Surging Momentum has its own private Dam where tilapia, catfish, mudfish and various varieties are breed naturally and harvested during the dry season. Harvest began November and will be carried out till rain resumes and the dam is restocked. Tons of fish is harvested daily. Yes there are cows here but grazing field has been allocated to in house cattles and partners. I will hire land from surging Momentum.


How will you farm ? Surging Momentum has a fleet of tractors and combine harvester's ready and available to carry out work anywhere in the south West of Nigeria but as for me willy, I will just pay per acre and carry out work slow and steady acre by acre as we try once again to make money this year so we can be debt free. Missing an independent winfarms already

DoctorAyukebot:
Cameroon has an English speaking minority that used go be administered by the British as part of Nigeria. That was before independence in the 60's. If you have heard of towns like Bamenda, Mamfe, Kumba, Buea, those are English speaking areas. We make up about a fifth of the population..

DoctorAyukebot:
Isn't it obvious😅...

Zocalite:
Are you the one that want to bring them from their country?

What work will they be doing on the farm?

How many are they?

9 acres isn't even much like that

There are many Cotonou people already residing in nigeria that do job or labour monthly

Do your calculations Sha

2Minuteswoman:
I understand what you’re saying, and I agree the Cotonou guys are more disciplined. That’s not even the issue. My concern is that most of them don’t stay beyond one season. By the following year, they’re usually back in their country, and I don’t want to be restarting labour every year .
The Middle Belt option wasn’t really an option for me at all. From what I’ve seen, and from people close to me, the level of monitoring required is just too much. If you’re not on ground almost all the time, it becomes risky.
The issue for me is continuity...

Thanks for your Input

2Minuteswoman:
Yes, you’re right. I heard they came from Cotonou,and most likely won’t even stay up to a year. After a year, I’ll probably start looking for another labourer. It doesn’t really make sense though.

femi4:
cos faze was just a squad member...he didn't put in much work, didn't lose much as well

Abeg Naija rice farmers should get at! Buhari closed border to favor them and they almost killed Nigerians

EduBrazil1991:
I have over 13,000 matured cassava stands presently in Owo, Ondo state. Not TME419 variety though.

I don't want to sell the tubers, I would prefer turning it to Garri as that will generate more profit.

Funds for setting up a a garri processing factory is my biggest challenge now.

I have tried getting soft loan from Wema, Jaiz bank and none went through.

I'm supposed to start harvesting by first week of July.

I'm even open for partnership

Jaywrld:
That's in akure right
Here in Ogun state abeokuta precisely it's far more expensive

Elyonboy:
No i didn't apply any fertilizer, the land is very fertile by itself.

Thanks

Moboj:
The 25mesh is thicker Sir
But the porosity of the 25mesh is more

Jaywrld:
Pls 🙏 where can I get ansal f1 seeds in Ogun state

Lanjonath:
It definitely isn't cheap because even the RZ tomatoes aren't cheap seedforth the guys that bring in RZ seeds also sell rootstock (something they won't do if they didn't have customers who were buying, but you usually have to pre-order).

But leave the farmer who's still trapped with last decades knowledge to wallow in his lack of knowledge. Because you don't see every Tom, Dick and Harry doing something doesn't mean it isn't being done. I know 3 farmers who average 3.8kg+ per plant with zero BW incidents and there's also a method that was shared by Pistota on how to crash the price of tomato rootstock completely (but you need to learn to crawl before you learn to run) and I know someone who's already doing this.

But if you decide to do Rambo or Platinum, they're also good cultivars like I said earlier.

Jaywrld:
Is the rootstock expensive and how do I get it

dondo83:
I am confused , is maize different from corn?

Jaywrld:
Pls 🙏 just tell me how I can handle the bacterial wilt disease in gamhar rz

Pls 🙏 enlighten me on the managerial practices it woild be nice to learn from someone like you considering you farm the same cultivar in the same region as me

I need to know how to manage my crops come the bacterial wilt, so as to not lose my investment
