Britain told them to abandon it and go to school... The foolish people agreed
So in Britain there are no farmlands and farmers. Everyone goes to school.
You must be the king of those foolish people.

What are you saying? I am an Architect and I am a farmer too. You think Doctors and Engineers don't farm?

Seriously??
Majority are now millionaires?
Just like that
This is a bag of unprocessed Rice. It is 100kg. Each bag is 100k. If a farmer makes 10 bags, he is already a millionaire. Some farmers make close to 100 bags.

Farmers do not always farm one crop. They farm varieties of crops. A bag of dry ginger is over 600k now. A farmer with just 2 bags of ginger is already a millionaire.

Na you dey see million like big money. Small Boys for my village no dey see am as anything. Cause they make more money via farming

A bag of ginger is currently 600k. A farmer with two bags is already a millionaire. How many years does it take you touch a million? It's possible you have never touched one million of your own. grin

Well done op!

But for newbies, you weren’t detailed enough.
For instance, the rice grains : How were those gotten? We also didn’t get to see the rice being processed with the processor.
Ok I will make a detailed video and tag you.

I'd really love to grow soybeans sometime. I don't know if it grows in the South though.
You can try it this year. Start with a cup of Soya beans. If it work well this year, you can farm it in large quantity next year. Soya beans is expensive every year. You don't need fertilizer. 100kg bag of Soya beans is currently about 300k

How do you de-stone your rice? Nigerian farmers sell their expensive rice without de-stoning. Do you think if one was to operate a rice de-stoning services it’ll sell amongst local farmers ?
Rice storage doesn't need any special method. Just store in a cool and dry place. No need for any chemical or insecticide. Rice can be stored for over a year.

De-stoning services are available now for local farmers. I also de-stoned mine after the process. You can establish a de-stoning facility and farmers will patronize you. But ensure your facility is located at a community where they have many rice farmers.

You can start from your backyard. You can also start with the major crop that people farm in your neighborhood.

How do you deal with stones? Are there stones in it?
After everything. I take my rice for de-stoning. After the de-stoning process, there will be no single stone in the rice. It doesn't cost much to de-stoned rice. Most of these local rice are packaged and sold as foreign rice

How many ethnic groups do they have in Britain... But they came here and merged 46 ethnic group together and the foolish people agreed and defended it with Ak47 by killing themselves including you as the mayor.

How many languages do they speak in Britain but they came here and merged 86 languages together and told them to abandon it and communicate in foreign language. The idiots agreed even though they couldn't speak it, invented pigin and made those who couldn't speak foreign language inferior upto the extent of failing them in school and frustrating them.

How many Churches do we have in Britain... They came here and mounted churches every where and told the idiots that the church will solve all their problems. The foolish people agreed and till today, churches are multiplying like rats and solve nothing.

How many scientific or business books did they translate to any 86 ethnic languages but the stupid people came here and translated the Bible to all the languages but ordinary physics, they could not translate and the colonized idiots could not do it themselves till today.

If you are not ignorant, you should understand by now that those people never wished us well. Yes they have farmlands because they know the importance that's why they made sure they reprogrammed our mindset to think it's only illiterates that go to farm. In 1980, Naira had more value than the Dollars due to agriculture... All they needed to do was to create one useless certificate and tell the zoo animals to struggle for it at the expense of 20yrs there precious time.

Black man should have sense

So this confirms a thread I opened before. As the thought came to my mind, I wrote down.

How many plots of land will bring 10 bags of rice? Or say like this how many bags will a plot give?
How easy is Farming rice from start to finish, compared to most crops?

Crops that thrive in swampy areas during the rainy season and can be harvested twice a year include:

1. Ugu (Fluted Pumpkin - Telfairia occidentalis) – Grows well in waterlogged areas and can be harvested multiple times by plucking the leaves.

2. Cocoyam (Colocasia esculenta/Xanthosoma sagittifolium) – Prefers wet conditions and matures in 5-7 months, with early varieties allowing for two harvests.

3. Waterleaf (Talinum triangulare) – Grows rapidly in swampy areas and can be harvested multiple times.

4. Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) – Thrives in waterlogged soils and can be harvested twice yearly if well managed.

5. Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) – Certain varieties do well in wet conditions and can produce continuously for months.

6. Banana/Plantain (Musa spp.) – Not seasonal, but suckers keep producing after the main harvest.

Are you sure of the Ugu?

I am a farmer. I don't buy Rice in the market. But I eat rice in my house. I always keep enough rice for my family consumption every year.

This is how I process the rice I eat in my house.

Mr man,
If you have a wife and SIX children or more and you have capacity to produce all the food they will eat, your blood pressure will not rise. Believe me.

I am about to eat gari in my house from cassava I farmed in 2023, and I was not even in Nigeria at the time. My boys did everything. We are still on the product and I had to give a lot of it out.
How some groups of people came to be collectively hexed to see agriculture as being beneath them in some African countries (in favor of white collar jobs) should be under studied as an example of how strong and damaging the "herd mentality" or "group thinking" can be. While silently reading through the 3 pages of this thread, I can still see traces of resistance with some giving several excuses and seeing obstacles when there are creative solutions around obstacles and situations in life. They will all individually learn the hard way if they are NOT ready to think and take action in terms of "solutions." Period.

The same Brits were haggling out fishing rights with Europe as the last component of Brexit for such a long time.

Agric in the UK and Europe are closed industries controlled by families for centuries. Try to go into the UK and see how you can break into Billings market as a fish merchant. See how it works out. Agric business in many countries are controlled by cartels.

Do you know what those who supply food to US soldiers in their warships and submarines make?


Those who got us to abandon agriculture really got us good.
True that.
