I have been doing agribusiness for a long time now and I can confidently say that cucumber farming is one aspect of the Agric sector if done well.

I'd be sharing pictures of my cucumber farm here just to encourage intending farmer.

Hi, I will like to reach out to you sometime soon. I have a project coming up

I doubt the Authenticity of this..
it is never possible to get 450bags from 1acre
Bro it is very possible.... Like Highly possible.

I've gotten 120 bags from 1000 stands before... I would have gotten more but I was to attend to other things.

Mop fertilizer helped me out sha.... Try applying it on day 30 and immediately after your 1st harvest.

You'll see that your cucumbers will be very big and you'll hardly see fruit abortion... All these things no be rocket science oo.

Infact I would have gotten more than that but I got tired harvesting abeg... Make i rest.

And also I spray Fungicides immediately I make any harvest.

I use Urea and Mop.... Then Foliar Fertilizers too

If enough cash dey... I supplement with Calcium Nitrate... Magnesium Sulphate and potassium Nitrate.... This can be fertigated or sprayed... Most people prefer spraying all these.

Then I spray Amino acid to reduce the heat stress on my plants so I won't see any abortion on my flowers.



10 bags from 1200 plants.... Are you sure this isn't a mistake??....
