How many midi makes 100kg bag?
Depends on the locality.

Use ratio 1:1.2-1.5 for modu conversion

Nasarawa, Kaduna and Niger have some of the biggest modu though that is also market dependent

Are these prices in kg's or metric tones?
Prices in kg. In some instances, weight of bag is above 100kg, but maize and soya are 100kg bags

Dry pepper and ginger do not weigh up to 100kg. Both can attain 50kg if properly bagged
AgricultureRe: Long Awaited Egusi {Melon} Storage Business Season Is On Now by Olayimikami: 11:44pm On Nov 28, 2016
Bags sold at 28-30k. Modu at 170

Peeled Egusi sold at 420/modu

Prices may rise slightly next month as demand increases for the yuletide.

among the pictures dry chilli pepper u shared here, please which one is the best that's have high returns and always demanded
It depends on your locality or intended market. The smaller the pepper, the hotter it is and of course, the higher the price too.

Bag sizes differ but mostly jumbo 6 bags or Jamilu bags(size 32)

Current prices range from 19k-21k for jumbo 6 capped in kaduna to 26k-28k for jamilu bag uncapped in nasarawa and 40k-42k for African bird eye chilli (size 32 uncapped) on the Plateau.

how do you use the slippers to scale the bag?

How much is this bag size? is this bag up to 40kg.?
To help him a bit. That's a size L5 bag. If well packaged, should be more than 40kg, approx 50kg.
AgricultureRe: Agric/grains Commodity Purchase/storage by Olayimikami(op): 9:45am On Nov 21, 2016
Red kidney beans @400-420/modu. Prices may however dip slightly in December.

[quote author=Sanitty post=51225317][/quote]Soya 100 kg bag(jumbo) =12000
Beans "milk".... .......... 15000
Ground nuts (unshelled)... 6300
This are the ones I know.
What do you think about the entry level price for beans?

Thanks. Can you please state location and confirm size for beans and groundnuts.

Price of beans is fair if you are referring to a size 32 bag though most harvest are just trickling out

Soya price is relatively okay too when compared with figures in kaduna, Nasarawa and parts of Plateau
AgricultureRe: Agric/grains Commodity Purchase/storage by Olayimikami(op): 12:31pm On Nov 20, 2016
For those who have quoted prices for commodities, will appreciate if your can confirm bag sizes for ease of comparism.

Thank you
AgricultureRe: Agric/grains Commodity Purchase/storage by Olayimikami(op): 12:27pm On Nov 20, 2016
I had earlier suggested a price synergy, but sense most are not willing to be forthcoming with current prices.

The following commodities are available currently at fairly okay entry prices

1, Soya beans
2, Maize
3, Rice
4, Sorghum
5, Dry pepper

Remember to treat commodities before storage if holding long term

Don't store beyond your capacity as it may not be easy to sell without prior experience.

Primary location of commodity is kaduna. Anywhere in Kachia LGA will do. Kafanchan also has similar prices

How much is a bag of dried split ginger today?
20k as at monday
AgricultureRe: Agric/grains Commodity Purchase/storage by Olayimikami(op): 4:43pm On Nov 14, 2016
henrimoto:
can one bag of fresh whole ginger make up 40kg of split dried ginger? or how many of fresh whole ginger bag will make up 40kg of split dried ginger?

Thanks for Sharing knowledge.
You will definitely required more weight of fresh whole ginger to make up 40kg of split dried ginger.

Even if you store up your fresh ginger, it will gradually lose weight from change in surronding temperature

Please use moisture content values to determine dry matter ratio.

Dried state could also be in stages and of different value

@Olayimi..

Welldone Bro. Do you know the current price of fresh ginger per bag? secondly, will buying fresh ginger directly from farmers at the farm be of better low price advantage?

Thank You.
Fresh Whole ginger is 7-9k per bag.

Farm gate is always cheaper than market price, however you need to understand the scaling ratio.

Thank you for the good work. What was the exit price for maize and soya last year and what is the price now? And the price of ginger in nasarawa now. Thanks
You are welcome sir.

Exit was N130/140 per kg @ for maize, N200/modu in the open market. Those were the high end prices.

Soya was N120/140 per kg, N150 per modu in the open market.

Ginger is predominantly Kaduna and not nasarawa. Price range is 19k-21k per bag. Approx average weight is 50kg per bag

Dry split ginger/Fresh Ginger

AgricultureRe: Agric/grains Commodity Purchase/storage by Olayimikami(op): 7:17am On Nov 12, 2016
Let's have a price synergy of commodities in our locality.

I believe some of the most volatile are maize and soya for now.

Prices for botprices almost at last years exit price and i fear most speculators may find it hard to sell at much higher prices

Sesame out but trading @35k a bag,company prices may however drop the prices to 24k-27k from next week
AgricultureRe: Agric/grains Commodity Purchase/storage by Olayimikami(op): 7:12am On Nov 12, 2016
Also called the bird eye pepper and is bagged in size 30 A6 sack but not capped. Current price in nasarawa market is 26k, farm gate is 24k.
