Plantain business........ serious business

One of the simplest tools for farming is cutlass. Handling cutlass needs great care. Be careful. Many have sustained avoidable injury. Wear rain-boot while working.

@olamimo12, i am an intending farmer with a waterlogged piece of land planning to start small. What kind of crops or vegies can be planted on it. Thanks

Waterlodge farmland is almost good for nothing due to insufficient oxygen supply to the roots. Poor aeration will hinder growth. I would advise you use it for fishery or the likes.

splashbaby:
Neem leaves (dongoyaro) soaked in water for 7 days and sprayed on the leaves once in 15 days is safer alternative to that pesticide... It's cheaper and safer. You will get excellent result when the soil is treated with neem leaves mixture before planting.

How to go about it ? I mean the pre-planting application. Have you used it before? I think preplanting will deal with the nematodes and other insects in the soil.

Since u grow organically, why not try aspirin next time against pest and diseases? http://www.farmersjoint.com/blog/crop-and-plantation/crops/reduce-pest-attacks-crops-aspirin/.

I have read it. but have you tried it? tell us about the result. Someone here has posted that it makes no sense.

As I have said early, the issue of safety is beyond my scope alone. Contribute pls.............

Its a factor. Your up bringing, environment and the people you meet affects your decision making in life

Alright Sir.........no argument !

Austin234:
Poor harvest. Am discouraged.
Pls do u use fertilizer and what type and where do u buy them?

For the backyard one, i dont use fertilizer. I will use it for commercial one. Use NPK 15-15-15 for first application. Followed by liquid one on second application. I hope your farm is not a big one for now. sorry for poor yeild
