Farming In The South by Melbrom(op): 12:04pm On Sep 07, 2021

I have been wondering, why is it that most of our foodstuff comes from the north. Is that that southern lands ain't good for farming? Or southerners don't just want to farm. I really need an answer to this question

If i tell you i have a profitable farming business you can invest in so we can produce foods, would you be personally willing to invest ?

Because the North through deliberate acts of sabotage has ensured we depend on them for crops that can easily be grown here.

Murdering Southern Christian Farmers.
Flooding Southern Rivers from dams in North and Cameroons.
Grazing livestock in farms
Destroying cash crops
Government stealing lands from farmers
Lack of funding for Southern Agricultural projects.

I don't have the funds but if I did, I will invest if the proposal is convincing enough

Southerners do farm but have quite a handful of other things that puts food on their table where the north does not have. The main option for the north is to till the soil else they die off, fresh and evergreen fertile lands, abundant natural and mineral resources, quite a large number of educated folks (at least ability to read and write) are the reasons why you don't expect a southerner to die farming. I am a farmer myself.

That's the issue we have in the south o. Many times funds, the rest is the assumption of fraud. Do you know i have asked people to buy me a bull dozer and tractor in their names and hand it to me to use, even taking them to the site, but nothing?

If we don't stop mistrusting unecessarily we go dey where we dey.

In the north, at the snap of the fingers, illiterates gather collective funds to do farm work. Do your research

I have over 80 researches. Been begging people to fund for years. Zero

I started taking action, and from october will setup my first 20 acres farm, all funded by few nairalnders who came together to support the dream.

It will scale up to 200 acres in a year

Southneres are too educated to work together

Murder Christian southern farmers in the south? Crops are mostly destroyed in the north more than they are destroyed in the south

I understand. But from what I understand so far, the northerns are more trust worthy than southerns(truth be told). We are too smart for our own good and won't hesitate to cheat each other when given the opportunity. But collective mind will be best and we can achieve great things.
