seems like I'll be planting only during off season. the effort put in plating tomato is too much compared to the price they're buying here

REUBEN010:

They've successfully sacrificed more yield for disease resistance.
Please how's their resistance to bacterial leaf spot and what number of stands can be averagely gotten from a 5g pack?

not bad...at least 2200 seed.

pathology:

I will give my verdict by early next month...to me it seems Cobra has potential, but let see because I don't want to be biased has I don't own any company.

Land soak today... grade 1 diva range between 13-11k why plantinum 10-8k.. seed is out now diva, Cobra and plantinum, but is worth doing nursery now? Cobra tin 55k, diva 9k and plantinum 18k.

the same cobra i sold last tuesday for 7.5-9K per crate was sold today for 13k. Price seems to be picking up gradually. Hopefully it remains so

I dey laugh you. My advice is start small and grow bigger. What you do not yet have good knowledge of , you want to start big and plant in hectares. Weldone oo. Good luck.

Veddywhite:
I am really confused about nairaland is it only people that have few hundred thousand that are here because I no understand ooo… I know few farms that cultivate different crops on like 30 to 50 acres and they started with 20 And they’re successful now… they own personal cars. The only thing I see on nairaland is 2plot success of tomatoes or cucumber, 2acres failure of tomatoes…. Nah only 2-3plot una Dey get success for here? Must I start from 2 plots? What if I have like 10 - 20 million to start a agribusiness where I am gonna have agronomists- marketers-contracted laborers-security…. I go con carry 20million for hand con go Dey cultivate 2plots? I have never see a successful 5 acres of tomatoes farm here but I know some and have even see some on Facebook… nah only newbies Dey here? Abi nah fund issue?

Veddywhite:

What I am saying is that there many farms that are not more than 5years and they own like 2 hilux few farm trucks….. why is it that we have trend of 3 years on nairaland and all I could see is 2plot of tomatoes on the same trend since 3years…. Is it that it not profitable or when them scale up they stop coming to nairaland? In fact my father gave some some land to cultivate tomatoes last year… they have expanded this year to a bigger space if I give those women 3years they will cultivate up 10acares soon… why is there no development in a trend of over 5yrs it still same 3plot of tomatoes or cucumbers or pepper

Have you asked why dey expand like that. Do you know their background story? Where they started from? Boss, farming is one venture that can make you alot of money if you know what your are doing and also send o e back to village if one does not know what he is doing and still not willing to learn. Good luck

Pick few crate, sold diva 15k and plantinum 12k... based on say it is grade 1 first harvest. Normal plantinum price at the moment is 10k why diva 13k.

PLS ELDERS IN THE HOUSE, HOW MANY KG OF COCOPEAT WILL BE ENOUGH FOR 10 SEEDLING TRAYS OF 2000 CAPACITY. THANKS

Your Diva is enticing me oo. Seems I'll try it alongside my regular Cobra next season.

I noticed that I have a few tomato stands producing pumpkin-shaped tomato fruits (with deep flutes and contours) amongst my Cobra in two consecutive batches even though I only grow Cobra 26F1 for now.
You also made a complaint of such nature concerning Greengo.

hope you know price depends on quality and fullness? Some grade also go for like 5-6k here. If Ogun price is not encouraging why not move to Lagos?
