Cassava Farming is in my mind
I have been thinking all this while of a way out, I have try so many things, some were successful and some were not. I realise after a lot of research and personal thinking that the only way out is to invest in agriculture, as much as I would love to start a large farming of cocoa, palm, rice and the like because of the profits level, I know it demand big start, thus I will like to settled for CASSAVA.

Am here once and am back no, as a novice, but interested farm, soliciting for help, assistance and more information to kick start. What can I do so as not to regret doing this.

Am in Akure, Ondo State capital, I will be ready to go any where not to far away to start, my hope for 2017 is on having a farm to start my agriculture investment. All sort of assistance, help and information will be welcome.

Thanks.

Cassava seems to be his interest, and in ondo, there arent much cucumber farmer, didn't even know of any cucumber farm in ondo state, but he is surrounded by cassava far all around. So, its understandable what he chooses, and who told u cassava farming takes 2 years?

I will advise you to visit the nearest ministry of agric close to you and also make sure you use improved variety that matures within 6 months.
