I want to know where and how it's grown...sourcing, and also if I can get a biz plan to the effect

That is why l opened a thread asking where it is grown commercially in Nigeria as l know someone who wants to work with that information. There are lots of videos of YouTube on how to grow beetroots.

@Pavore9 thank you bro... Am following the thread. please do not forget to include me in the arrangement for the red stark apples seeds that can grow here in Nigeria. I have 5acres I want to put to use....but that will be after experimenting with a small area though

Yes, you can start with a few seedlings and after your first harvest you can then expand.

This short video will give an idea what the charcoal cooler structure looks like and ideal for those in the rural areas. I believe it will extend the freshness of your Okra for a week or more.

@ penmight! Finally

A demonstration farm about one hour plus drive away from Nairobi where training on how to organically grow fruits, herbs and spices takes place. Rabbit urine and earthworm's waste plays a central role in achieving sweet harvests. From Strawberries, Pepino melons, Sage, Chia seeds, Peppermint, Thyme, Parsley, Marjoram, Coriander, Rosemary,Mulberry, Fennel,Gooseberries and tens of other short term crops. It is really inspiring.

@povare9 i also want 50 apple seedlings, i sent you a PM. awaiting your feedback.

Love to have these in the kitchen! Currently have one on my Kitchen's counter top, bought it on the 23rd of December and today is day 75 and still looking good as day one, destination is 90 days. Researching on how good it will be after such duration, farmers will never be forced to sell off, as long as it was harvested at full maturity.

Based on the post of the farmer who grew these ''We harvested 17 squash from 2 plants on 2 trellises, growing within about 16 square feet of garden bed.....These 17 squash weighed 40 pounds (18kg)''

@Pavore, I sincerely want to try out this beet root squash/strawberry. How can I get d seedlings?

I believe Technisem should locally have the butternut squash and beetroot.

Saw an advert where the attached picture was posted, the Advert is sponsored by a big Kenyan agro exporting firm that massively exports Dutch potatoes, fruits and vegetables to Europe. They are looking for farmers who grow the pepper organically as they intend buying tonnes of it for export, What caught my attention was many Kenyans saying if the company was to be Nigeria based it would be easier to source it as Nigerians are more into the variety!

Truly Kenyans farmers don't grow much of it that is why it is not commonly seen in the market as one is only sure to see it in Indian owned grocery stores as Indians consumes it like us.

This shows we have crops that have huge market potentials but lack of adequate knowledge and logistics is just what is hindering us!

Sir, I have been a keen follower of your ideas. I would like to come to Kenya and acquire knowledge on green house construction and farming techniques. Also, get exposure on markets. Where do I need to start from?

You need to list out what you intend to achieve while visiting Kenya and weeks before arrival engage with the persons/institutions you want to learn from. That would help you calculate time and costs.

My brother how can one be a part of this?

We need to build our own network.

Lucy the farmer.........love her focus.

Pepino melons helps in lowering blood pressure, stroke and liver problems. Harvest is about 4 to 5 months after planting. Nigeria's weather is ideal for its cultivation

I am not much of a poultry person but l love such sight but most importantly l love guinea fowl eggs!

I think a specie of pepino melon is already being grown in Nigeria.
The one that I saw around here during its season is all yellow/lemon colour (no strip) & "oval" shaped (not round/circular like this). I hv eaten it & it has a weird swt taste.
Sorry I don't hv d pix

Same here. Am not a fan of poultry but love d sight of exotic birds like guinea fowl, turkey & ducks. I intend to farm it ds year. But d challenge is d small/weight size. It still can't compete with chicken in terms of size/weight.

Or is there any (guinea fowl) hybrid of better weight around?

Am with you on that bro...where do we start?what am I to do. Can I reach u on WhatsApp?

Pavore9:
Am into non-agricultural exports. Visit the Nigerian Export Promotion Council http://www.nepc.gov.ng/ and also visit any of their offices it will help you in knowing the right process involved to avoid loss.

hi brother

I have checked in at the nepc office and I was told to get a Ltd to begin the journey

After I get the Ltd certificate across to the nepc, can you suggest to me what you think I should do as a novice..

To enrol for training with other exporter or simply attend only nepc workshops?

Good evening Pavore, do you know of any feed formular that I can use for cattle fattening?
