In your hatred badly configured mash called brain, you forced yourself to think everybody that left their village is in Lagos.
Try to work more on comprehension.

biafra I think

Nice one bro @ OP

Op,may God continue to bless the works of thy hands! Gradually from small scale you graduate to big time farming. Its unfortunate that Nigerian youths are blinded by "non-existing" white collar jobs,which if u manage to get it will be paying you meager stipends(30k,35k,40k) as take home. Its long overdue we look inward's and start something(business),look around and see how you can solve peoples problems and get paid for doing so.

I love this. Good one op.

OP well done

ZUBY77:
Ha. Very good.

At least it will encourage the youth to look on the ground where everything good comes from.

Not closing their eyes and hoping that one imaginary being would throw Dollars to them from the sky, or looking unto the sky for manners that never existed.

...

But I cultivated and harvested all of those things as far back as 1987 to 1996 when I lived in the village where life was easy and quiet.

As soon as I left home, I have been on 'Life on the run' since then.

Indeed i copy your remark: 'Life on the run' . i am currently been tag Ex - Village Boy Champion Farmer... 1995-2002...

lol... yes dem for give you award just say your Award never reach your village that time

@OP, Congratulations! It's always of great joy to me when I see people who have returned to the land....because that is where our future as humans is. The only thing that can really rejuvenate after any holocaust is the soil.
I am actually impressed by your patience, your dedication, your ingenuity and your commitment to the farm and by extension the environment. I will always appreciate people who have embraced the "shame" of farming and decided to go back to the ancient landmarks. I pray that the Almighty that has pit his blessings in the soil will allow it to yield to you in hundredfold and thousandfolds. I pray the seasons will work in your favour. I pray the famine and the pestilence will not find their way to you. I pray the locust will not perch on your farm....and all other prayers that I can't remember for now....lolz

But thay said, I think you really need to get back to work. And by that, I mean not only starting another season of farming, but taking it to a higher level.
First and foremost, I will like to ask.....

1. ARE YOU DOCUMENTING YOUR EFFORTS AND ACHIEVEMENT IN YOUR FARMS?
This is a very crucial first step to realize better efforts at what you do, is to tell a story, year by year, harvest by harvest, each planting season about your farm.
Take pictures. Start a daily journal. Document your expenses. Note any crop diseases and pest problems. Document your labour I'm put in days and hours. Document all problems like security issues, animal predator issues, weather issues.
The importance of documentation and record keeping cannot be overemphasized. They are the backdrop of what your success or failure is measured by.
Meticulous documentation also helps you to plan each farming season.
Meticulous documentation also helps you to showcase your work. It chronicles your achievements and helps retrospective reviews.
it helps you to become more flexible with ideas and helps yyou try on new things.

2. ARE YOU LOOKING INTO EXPANDING YOUR FARMING, OR IS IT JUST A HOBBY, LEISURE THING OR PASTIME?

what are your plans for the future? Are you just doing peasant farming or you want to make it a long term thing and mechanized? If you want to mmechanize, then you have to step up your game.
What are your assets? How much land do you have that is yours? How much land do you need? What are your farming goals and possible outcomes? Where are you located? What are the available local resources that can be tapped into? What are your financial options? Are yyou aware of the many NGOs that are taking on startup farmers? Are you aware of largely untapped government funding for agriculture in states that is being routinely embezzled by Public servants because nobody is asking?
The questions go on and on. I think you should take some time and read them sincerely so that you can answer them well.
FFinancing a farm is easy.....as long as people know you are serious about it. THAT'S ANOTHER WAY PROPER DOCUMENTATION will be of immense value.

Are you in Ibadan, or around that area? If you are, please, take out some time to visit IITA in Idi-Ose, after Ojoo and before Moniya. They have a SO MANY resources for people like you. You will be amazed at how they will help you with diseases and pest control and disease resistant seedlings etc. FOR FREE.
Networking is also very important. Networking with other local Nigerian farmers and seeing how they do, what they struggle with and how they overcome their problems is of IMMENSE value. I have such a friend in Ondo like that who has gone from being a small scale farmer to a farmer of repute.

All in all, pls, whatever it takes and whatever you do, don't be discouraged. Even if this farm thing is a little hobby, the effect of pollution free and chemical preservative free gardenletts on your health are priceless.
Thank you for making my day....

Hardworking dude, weldone, keep it up, nothing like having ur own farm and eating from ur farm products my brother

nice one. I want to believe you produce in hectares.
