GazecoSpurt:
A joint venture it is. With all indication that the agricultural sector in Nigeria is underperforming in quality and credibility, which is blamed on several factors, from post harvest to processing etc, some farmers and individuals still believe there is every chance that the grain sector can be jointly rebuilt and refaced.
There are lots of individuals, professionals and agroconomist and even Government officials who still believe the Agricultural sector in Nigeria, will be one to reckon with in the next 10, 15 years.
So the government will say to youths like me, 'become an agropreneur instead of just farming, to create jobs, revenue and boost the economy'
But sir/ma how do i get the capital, training, exposure? All thanks to such platforms as Nairaland etc, if not, alot of agropreneurs will be getting ready to waste their time on a government that governs well thus as it is said in the media. Moreso there are many individuals practicing agriculture in Nigeria, whether substantially or otherwise, believe me if we are to combine the number of farms we have in Nigeria, their produce is enough to provide food for the whole nation all year round, but still we are suffering from food shortage. Why?
[b]Of course there are many farms in Nigeria, but the probability you will see a modern commercial farm is almost zero, all thanks to Levantis group, Dangote, Oslam and Otta.
Most local Farmers always calls on the government to do almost everything.
Poor cultivation and inadequate processing facilities.
Poor farm management and operations.
Improper planning and researchwormness[\b]
It is very true the government wants the sector buoyant enough in production, before exporting.
So to achieve result, individuals can jointly setup agricultural ventures, invest, but if there is enough capital, knowledge, and proper planning, individuals can commercially practice rice production.
Put your money in good use, not everybody can afford the huge sum required to run a modern rice farm, but we can jointly.

About the project.
We are developing 100-1500 hectares of land in 3 years to cultivate rice.
Our target yield per hectare is 7.5 tons (7500kg) and thats about 150 bags of rice from one hectare and a bag of rice is sold for atleast 12,500, so do the maths.
The duration for this project is 3 years, after which investors, will be given a renewal option.
The ROI in 3 years is 100 to 150%.
And the minimum required investment is 5% of the total required fund.
You need not worry about management, or farm operations as all department will be well handled by professionals in their fields.
Transparency in financial reports is guaranteed and or with a soft or hard copy of these reports made available to every shareholder in the project.
We have a good knowledge of the market through research, standard marketing and advertisement plan, strong revenue system all year round,
Plans to install modern processing plants close to the farm, improved packaging system with a loyal customer base, i can bet you are not thinking amiss.
Please take note that land preparations will commence 30th November 2016 and cultivation begins by February.
From 30th October 2016, we won't be accepting anymore offers.
For a copy of the financial plan/guide for the project, interested persons can drop their email address and we will forward a soft copy to your mailbox immediately. Thanks
nice write-up but what you have written don't seem to be visible in reality. In practice, most farmers in Nigeria produces an average of 2.5 to 3tons per hecter. On d point dat 7.5tons of produces 150bags of rice is not true either as paddy rice or processed rice. 7.5tons of paddy rice is equivalent to 75bags of paddy at 100kg per bag. 100kg of paddy rice produces an average of 70kg of processed rice, 20kg of husk and abt 10kg of bran if d milling machine is of high efficiency. Some machines even process less than 70kg of milled rice per 100kg of paddy rice. So, i wonder how u did ur calculation to arrive at 150bags of rice. In as much as u are trying to introduce people to rice farming/milling biz, pls try to also do a thorough research bfor u come to d public wit ur plans. God bless you.

All that i note from what you said was 'most farmers' but another point you should note from us, is the fact that we are not most farmers, and we do not plan to be, we are Gazeco Spurt. All that was written, will, can and must be executed by our team, you know why? Because anything, everything is possible. I trust you will be notified when that time comes.

@GazecoSpurt you posted "Our target yield per hectare is 7.5 tons (7500kg) and thats about 150 bags of rice from one hectare and a bag of rice is sold for at least 12,500, so do the maths"........The 150 bags from one hectare you mentioned selling at N12,500, is it paddy rice or milled rice?

At Pavore9 and the OP... do we really have an idea of how many tons per hectare (t/ha) can be gotten from Nigerian rice plantations. Even 4 t/ha from a paddy field will be a lofty achievement considering the existing varieties and agronomic practices by local rice growers.

Second, do we have an idea of the milling preservation rate of the milling equipment to be used? Because, paddy will normally lose between 25 - 30% of its weight during processing as chaff, sediments, broken rice etc. to emerge as polished, destoned rice.

These are some questions OP needs to frankly answer to be sure the projections made are realisable.

Just my humble opinion.

I did not even validate the 7.5 tons yield per hectare rather asked if the 150 bags projected is paddy or milled. I know going by the practice on ground even hitting 3.5tons/h is even seen as bountiful.

In a project l was involved in some years back we did hit 4.1ton/h because we used the improved # Nerica variety and used a hand mechanized harvester as against using sickles where the labourers intentionally skip stalks, also using a mechanized thresher escaping the loss associated with threshing with sticks.

I thank God for both of u above.
At last some people with real business sense have entered this thread. Not all these "send the biz plan to my mail" group of people.
U guys have asked the promoter basic and strategic questions that he needs to answer in order to justify his claims.
I asked him my questions privately by email. His answers did not convince me so I just ignored the whole deal and his business plan. I do the thing "jump and pass"
Cash is hard. U don't just earn it and throw it into the Bush based on someone's promises.

I am expecting those that have seen the projection sto do a financial analysis here.

What location or state is your intended farm to be situated?

Who are you competitors?

Price projections seem shaky given Dangote's interest in the sector.

Will await analysis from those who have copies of the business plan for a healthy brainstorming session

Every point you highlighted is the undisputed truth, but the question as to how we intend to beat the mark? that answer will and shall remain with the company for competitive reasons. Thanks for your opinions we really appreciate them

Am sorry Mr, we would preferably not take questions regarding this project from outside investors, loyal customers and staffs, if we would, then there would be no need for us to ask interested persons to sign the Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before getting a copy of the financial or business plan. We can publicly address questions about the company. Thank you.
Mind you, we gave you answers according to the questions you asked which where basically about the company, especially the reputation and location and we told you this company is still at it startup stage and we are sure you might not want to invest in a startup as ours. Please if you desire to know more about the project, you need to sign NDA before we can mail you a copy. Thank you

Am sorry nobody including me can publicly give you these details, as everyone who's got the financial plan, had legally signed a Non-Disclosure Agreement, so I oblige you to follow suit and sign the NDA to qualify to get a copy and carryout the analysis with your lawyer or business adviser.
