onatisi:What makes them farmers if they didn't know how to plant and harvest without the phones? |

Dc4life:It is not by creating policies, what matters is efficiently implementing the thousands of policies lying fallow over the years and extracting results from them. Nobody is in a competition to create policy, Nigeria has never lacked creative policies, fruitful implementation has always been the problem. |

sometimes I wonder if our so caller leaders have brain. what would the phone do? They should have the money for fertilizers, herbicides, improved seeds and other things that would b beneficiary to d farmers. The real farmers are illiterate. |

SmartMugu: Not all farmers will benefit from this. One person will. The money they spent on those phones are enough to send the to other african countries for training if they wanted to waste money. How many farmers sabi operate Nokia torch Talk more of Android. |

greenermodels:The phone they are about to distribute will automatically detect the language of ita area. That phone can plant.harvest and even process the rice . It is a special brand of phone specially made for Nigeria farmers . In fact the ministry of agric should set up a whatsapp group and bbm for naija rice farmers. Forget anambra ,dat guy thinks he can scam buhari. Anambra farmers only need Mtn lines and recharge card 2 Likes |

I think this phones were already ordered by the previous government, prior to them packing out of the villa. So, common sense demands that this present government must complete the project to avoid wastefulness. |
Re: FG Distributes Smartphones With Agric Apps To Rice Farmers In Nigeria by onatisi(m): 8:41pm On Dec 01, 2016 |
rhymaholic:Well-done,oya clap for yourself. Nobody go teach you. Infact I say once again well-done. Just continue as u are doing .u just keep thinking while they continue packing the money |

afanide: From all ur comments, it shows how irresponsible you think. Nairaland is filled with folks like you. For instance, a topic "like Mr A gave Mrs B money", and it gets to front page, majority just come and comment without thinking.. 'Ahh mrs B is a prostitute, Mrs B this, Mrs B that' without verification, without thinking of the relationship btw both parties, without thinking of what led to the money been given etc. You people just wanna comment, make e no be like say u no comment. Good luck with people taking you serious with your 'signature', a serious minded business person won't take you serious . I think its high time you apply much sense.. Thank you!! 1 Like |

Dc4life: If any policy of GEJ administration is good, does it make sense not to "Copy" it? You think everything should be reduced to petty squabbles? |
Re: FG Distributes Smartphones With Agric Apps To Rice Farmers In Nigeria by mapet: 10:35pm On Dec 01, 2016 |
OHIsIManuEL:.... Unfortunately, many of you lot have little minds, not imaginative or cerebral enough to even reason out why the need for the initative. You take the easy way out, i.e. condemn in the most ignorant manner.............. In Kenya, concepts like this was used successfully to close the gap in financial inclusion, hence farmers and other artisans in remote location can access information and make financial transaction using apps ........... But why do I care...... Ignorance is free and easy |
Re: FG Distributes Smartphones With Agric Apps To Rice Farmers In Nigeria by mapet: 10:40pm On Dec 01, 2016 |
Handsomeemmy: This is a modification of the idea. If anything is good from GEJ's era, let's continue with it. If anything is bad, let's drop it A leader uses resources, who are the people he leads............. If you place the proposal infront of GEJ, trust me he may have no clue...... It was Dr. Akinwunmi who brought the idea back then, and was mainly for fertilizer distribution. This is a modification for rice value chain |

Weedcrusher: ...... Slow down 1. Who told you that the Rice plantersin the CBN-led anchor farmer/borrower program use hoe and cutlass? You need to find out about an initiative before you argue way off tangent. 2. I do not see logic in your arguement wrt App. You acknowledge developed world use it to rapidly increase their production, yet you fault the fact that we are embracing it.......so we should stick to hoe and cutlass? |
Re: FG Distributes Smartphones With Agric Apps To Rice Farmers In Nigeria by mapet: 10:45pm On Dec 01, 2016 |
noeloge82: Is there any indication that these are not provided concurrently with the phone app? The phone app is simply to enhance the rapid development of rice farming strategy........ and not a replacement for any of those. I think we should read carefully and understand the context in which this is presented |
Re: FG Distributes Smartphones With Agric Apps To Rice Farmers In Nigeria by mapet: 10:51pm On Dec 01, 2016 |
B4bestbrain: How many of "our farmers" do you know? We are dealing with those in the big business of farming. The second largest private rice farmer is a 25 year old that left Diamond Bank. There are many farmer-businesses men with large expanse of land and sophisticated technology tools whose output account for a large proportion of crops in market. There are also small scale farmers who have basic understanding of the use of phones. Trust me, if it take no brain tasking to take a selfy, then what's the problem with an app that provide basic information, especially when each user of the App will be trained on its use |
