Farmerakinloye6:
good! Caterpillar force, it not compulsory to see the sign, once it three weeks old apply it. Note! Make sure your cassava has not germinate nor has any leaf before you do second spray! If it has either striker or 2-4d will kill it. Do your second spray the following day you plant cassava.

How many grams of Caterpillar force should one use per knapsack?

Are you planting with cassava, or just maize?

the spacing seems rather large

I want to understand something, is athrazine selective for Corn OR cassava or us it selective foe both of them

I'm gallantly following all the steps & the comment......
Also if i may ask, like how much can some one budget to cultivate 20 acre(8 hectares) from scratch
Thanks to Mr. Akinloye

I will plant cassava maybe 1/3 of the land and use d rest for tomatoes next year

just convert 100gm to one litter, then use it 50ml per 16 litter.

it will not kill maize whether it has germinate or not, but it will burn cassava leaf if it has germinate.the real Purpose of athrazine is to kill unwanted weed seed.

Pls how do I deal with an invasion of giant rats on my farm? They have uprooted half of the maize crops I have planted. I planted the crops just two weeks ago and these rats are just digging them out of their holes. I have started replanting them today.

that is quail and gray squirrel work, if you like plant it 30 times they will still be following your hand to pick it one one. I will advise you to Clear the surrounding Bush, bait with poison, and set trap.

tasselling begin why cassava is becoming bold.

It is a residential area but the farm is fully fenced and gated. I already cleared the surrounding bushes but it seems they are still present in the area.

I am currently preparing rat poison for them today.

Farmerakinloye6:
The first and second batch respectfully..I planted the cassava at once and spray striker and 2-4d immediately... check my channel for more insight.

Thanks for your updates. Please can I mix maize Artrazine with 2-4d when the maize has developed?
And plz what is the rate of 2-4d that you normally use? Thanks

yes athrazine and 2-4d are compatible. 50ml 2-3 weeks maize old. NOTE don't apply 2-4d to one week old maize because it will turn and cut it!

Thanks so much

All the maize has tassel... the cassava intercrop with it is doing fine too...the third spraying will start by 9th of August (contact herbicide) Had being I planted only maize and I plan to sell fresh, then I will not spray anything again because the maize will be ready for harvest by 14-15th of August. I will drop video by tomorrow (some insight)

Since I stumbled on your thread, I have learnt so much. I noticed the layout of your crops makes working on the farm relatively easy.

Currently I have 42 plantain intercropped with scent leaf on a plot measuring 50 by 50 feet. On another location I have cassava intercropped with maize that I'm currently harvesting on a plot measuring 100 by 150 feet, I have finished harvesting the yams I did 150 large heaps, I won't buy yams till next farming season hopefully.

Thank you for all the knowledge you drop for free, you didn't mention that the greatest pest where human, they did the most damage.

The processed garri is super clean.

I'll keep feeding myself and family, will only go commercial when I understand the market and find a solution to human pests.

I no no say farming sweet like this, but it can be tough at times.

Respect Sir.

Please which chemical can you recommend for cassava only plantation. The cassava is close to a month now.

star force. How Big is your farm? What is the level of weed and cassava? You g can as well use contact herbicide too.

StarForce is good but it can only kill grasses and all plants(like maize) that the leaves look like that of grass , all broad leaves will be smiling after application. He can use it if all the weeds on his farm is grass.
Force-uron is better if the weed is less than a month, it is selective for cassava and yam and kill both grass and broadleaves.

How does one treat an outbreak of Cassava Mosaic on a cassava farm?
