It's time we invest on heavy farming in this country...
Invest on good roads from farming communities to the market. Invest on security for the farmers and see if you will be telling the same story by next year.
We already have enough farm labor and enough land. Just roads and security will make all the difference.

And the gullible ones still believe this country will get better where;

- There's no consequences for decision or indecision taken by the leaders.

- The leaders loot to high heaven and nothing happens.
The country will get better by getting disintegrated.

Yes, I have a small garden where I planted it.

Besides, this tomato plant has the ability to spread and climb walls anyhow. No wonder it is called Snake Tomatoes 😀😀😀

The topic is tomatoes and another fruit which is alternative to tomatoes.

Why do you digress and bring in religion, Muhammad, Allah Jesus and Lord ?

Why do you say Allah is a demon from hell ?

I am a Christian but I condemn that statement.

That statement can cause fight between Christian and Muslims.

Please refrain from using such statement .

They are also called tomato. I saw them in my Estate and a neighbor used them to cook way back 2020.
Re: Have You Used This Tomatoes To Cook Before? by EMETOALEXI: 11:06am On Jun 10, 2024
It taste good. Infact, we used it over the weekend for stew. But you need to mix it with the normal tomatoes.
Re: Have You Used This Tomatoes To Cook Before? by Mcslize: 11:07am On Jun 10, 2024
I used to plant this when I was 7-10 years old. It will ripe and then pluck it, scoop it into pot and boil it to dry off the water before use to cook your stew. It tastes so nice. But these ones on the pic are not ripe yet.

Any reference?

What type?

what is its botanical classification?

or are you saying because people called it so back then?
Re: Have You Used This Tomatoes To Cook Before? by Lovit(m): 11:08am On Jun 10, 2024
I have eaten that before when I was young. It was used as an alternative to tomato then

That said, we should not be going backwards. The FG, Ministry of agriculture and NIA should understudy reason for shortages in tomato production and come up with research and findings to ensure we have a robust supply of tomatoes year round

Other nations are solving their problems and providing a better life for their citizens, here we are debating if a cow should be granted citizenship status or not.
