stagger: Contact IITA Ibadan. They will sort you out.
Exactly. You can call them, and ask to talk to the cassava department, they will handle your complaints or requests. Just ask them about their improved variety.

saliubello: Maybe I spoil your market. Cassava farmers beware of lofty calculations. I know a town about 25minutes drive from Abeokuta. Their main produce is cassava, and I know how the yields & prices flunctuates. I know 2 companies in Ogun state, one extracts ethanol (AGBARA-IGBESA) while the other is a vendor company (OSOSA) to Flour Mills of Nigeria. The 3rd company makes glucose but its wound-up now. If you are close to any of this locations, go for it. My advice watch out for internet based consultants with no fields,they can be misleading.
Thanks a bunch. What is the name of the ethanol company my brother? And the glucose company, is it the one at ibafo?

soladel: Pman06, Thanks for this, Yes, one can achieve that tonage under full mechanisation, although all these tools are not easy come by, but that is the area where Govt has to help us. with the right machine, farming is greatly rewarded. For instance, a cassava planter can plant up to 10ha in a day.
Does this means that manual farmer can make a return of say, 30tons using this varieties? Cos if you ask me, a 25ton return is quite huge and reasonable. So are you in IB now, would appreciate meeting up with you if possible.
BusinessRe: Cassava Sellers And Buyers, Lets Meet Here by pman06(op): 11:07am On Dec 06, 2013
soladel: Cassava is a crop is perishable and post harvest is very costly.
Now, Industries that needed it are many but few of them are ready to bear the cost of transportation and other logistics.
soladel: I can tell you guys, all things being equal, one can get up to 50-60 tons per Ha. I got that in Shonga, Kwara state with Mr. Graham Hatty, i still have my farm there, i have close to 60 Ha now, ready for harvesting by next year april.
soladel: I forget to mention, the specie of cassava also determine your output, I have many specie on the farm courtesy IITA, Tme 98/0581, Tme 419, Tme 289, Tme 2324 etc.
60ton/hectre? How do you do this? Do you plant all this varieties or just one of this varieties. And one thing i heard is that this improved varieties are not always available on ground, how true is this please? Also, which companies are the so called ready to buy companies by the government?

kingagropro1: How old is your cassava in the ground? If its up to 13 months, then contact me.

Thanks.

danot1030: Please where can one get an hectre for 5k per year?
My suggestion is that you contact your state ministry of agriculture about this, as this may be possible in mine and not possible in yours.

vince01: you guys are doing a great job here and let me say THANK GOD FOR THIS THREAD i'm actually planning to start cassava farming in d year 2014, pls how can u guys put me thru ur advice is highly needed thanks
First thing first, you need a land. Contact your state ministry of agriculture if there are farm settlements in the state where land can be lease for farming. Them have atleast 100k at hand. When you cross that stage, you can come back here, so we can rub minds together.

@ All

Thanks for your contributions. If any individual know of buying companies for cassava produce, lets share them on the forum rather than making private contacts. As for those asking where 5k/hectre of land is, i'm referring to my state, ogun, and its not a virgin forest per say.

For other questions directed at me, i will try and answer as much as i can. And E-jaja & Stagger are here to help too.

@ E-jaja
I dont know about their land lease o. But my best suggestion is to lease from the state government. Its cheaper and you have lands all over the state depending on your location.

@ all

Please, anybody on the thread who knows the name of the ethanol company at agbara please in ogun state? I will appreciate if anybody can help with the companys' name.

Thanks.

stagger: Where did you get the info that length of time to maturity determines which is used for gari or industrially? I have not seen it written anywhere.
I dont think 18months old cassava can be bought by those HQCF mills. Cos its even stated on their site that it must not be more 18months old.

@e-jaja i stay close to the river basin, if its something i can ask around on your behalf, do let me know.

@ E-jaja Yeah, am based in abk.

@ All

Visit your state agricultural ministry. I believe they will have some farm settlements around the state. Its from there you can get to know there prices for one year rentage per hatre(2.5acres of land), and they will help with tractors, you just need to pay for each operation you do. And in respect to how long it will take a cassava to grow before harvesting, it majorly depends on the variety. I'v seen 6months varieties being cultivated, and most 9months and above, its just about the variety. And with 250k to spare, you can start with 2hectres of land.

My brother, i reason with you that it may be a means to disqualify ppl. Am not a dssc applicant though, but when i went for nnbts screening i saw the need for health and physique chks. Even the health issues was the reason some ppl were called out before the race so that they wont do the 3.2 km, and die or faint on the way. If such measures were taken for just a race, i believe risking the lives of hundreds more, by not doing screening, will be far from being possible.

nnesochim: Is very possible,i thought of that,they can come-up with a final list for training,thats why atimes we dnt need to be too agitated when things happen abnormally,It might be for someones good.
I need to believe its true but am very certain its not. Now military will employ ppl w/o knowing their health status. Its a standard protocol. You cant just assume everybody is not hypertensive, nor hiv negative, nor even know why they are applying to join the navy, and the rest that can be find out during screening. So i figure its a must standard.

Well, my plan is to lease ten acres or buy it outright if the price is conducive for me and my aim to cultivate cassava crop of high variety quality that will be profitable . So I want to know how much this can cost me to execute and also a guardian that can assit me through . Appreciate for ur concern E-Jaja
My suggestion is that, if you have such money to buy the lands, why not just use it to rent more land, 1hectre is 5k per year. Cheaper and saves cost too.
