Good. I will surely visit the site soon.

From my little knowledge abt agriculture & farming, I doubt if this water source can be sufficient to wet/irrigate a 20 acre farmland especially for water dependend vegetable farming.
This water source is a stream/brook that may dry up at the height of the dry season. What this land requires is a river not a stream/brook.

My pple, Pardon me if am wrong.

That part of the water in the picture is small. The bigger part is just by the side and flows round the year. Deep as well. No shaking.

All is set to commence planting of cucumbers.

Hi Alpha.
Is the road from the market to the farm motorable? Can ordinary cars get to the farm.?
Is the irrigation from the river centrally managed or each individual does his pump and piping?
How is fencing and security managed?
Is the outright sales still on?

Anyway I wish you the very best in your endeavor.

Cars do get to the farm. Direct sales of acres is on. Not on the portions we are cultivating now. It is on a 50 acre section. No fencing yet until early next year. Irrigation is optional. We pump for you at N25k per month. Piping is good to avoid disturbing the growing crops but a bit costly.

Pre planting watering ongoing

Planting has commenced.

can i join fr january and can i stil plant

is it stil available n can i stil plant fr january

depair:
is it stil available n can i stil plant fr january

yes the land is still available. To plant in january is ok. Land clearing should start early because is manual.

Thanks for your visit to the farm complex. No irrigation, no cropping during this dry season. So, take advantage of the space still available.

N E W S E X T R A . You can do half acre of cucumber incase your cash is low for now and expand later. This should take care of some people not so financially strong but have high interest in the project.
Thank God the price is picking well now.

A bag of cucumber is now N4,500. Expected to hit N6,000 by end of january 2016.

I am interested in the biz.how do I come in,my email is hakeem4success@yahoo. com

Gradually we are heading there. Fruiting of this set is expected by end of january 2016.

More pix.

More acres are opening at the complex.

The stream has enough water to take our watering through the dry season. We are currently pumping from there. No issues.
