Calm down
Story just started

hmm

EmpresFIDEL:
agriculture is the best, but it requires patient and persistence to make millions out of it. and if you really want to make it big you need to plant crop that can last while harvesting, e.g plantain, palm tree e.tc and complement it with fisheries, poultry, piggery e.t.c.

Best advice

Op go in this your strength and possess your possession

I will say, you are welcome here.

If you are here to say things like; what a waste of time, energy or resources, could you please click any link close to your mouse pointer?

But if you like to strive and do something new that could impact your life and those around you. Then you are welcome. I'm not selling anything, not claiming to be an expert or even trying to convince you to go into farming. All I'm here for, is to find people with same drive as my self in order to maintain that drive and also give us the room to see things differently, which means to learn off each other and broaden our horizon.

You will have to forgive my English, it's always been my weakest link right from day one in the KINDERGARTEN (even though I didn't have the chance to attend that, LOL).

Remember? I didn't introduce my self, right?

I'm Abiodun by name, A jobless man in the face of most Nigerians but a freelancer in the face internet AGE-GRADE. Why? Because once you don't work for the government or a boss, most Nigerians will believe you are jobless.

I'm a transcriptionist, a graphic artist and a FARMER(something I'm just diving into).

MY STORY IS GETTING TOO LONG, I'M SORRY. BUT I WILL TELL SOME MORE.

I have been in love with farming or let say, AGRICULTURE in general since my secondary school days, but as there is not much I can do then or put straight I didn't really have enough motivation to overcome the challenges and dive in. I had to look at poultries and farms in awe. But still then, I managed to set up my rabbit cage and also took in some chickens, I dived into quail keeping also but stopped midway as there wasn't much market for it. During this time, I plant 10-20 pods of maize in the compound as a kid.

But my first real FARM practice was during my service year, after all the coaching and long talks by the NYSC officials coupling with my realization that I'm not a MINISTER'S, GOVERNOR'S NOT EVEN A COUNCILOR'S son. I realized there is no job waiting for me after my service year. A reason why I have to find my ways. Three things I did was,

1- To list things I love which can bring me some coins.
2- To check those I'm able to do well.
3- Then, It all came down to FREELANCING and FARMING.

Because being under a boss wouldn't have allowed me the freedom I need to farm the way I want and right from onset, I always believe I will be a success as a freelancer.

A reason why I put aside some of my ALAWE, and acquire some space around my PPA and that place now is called, Oko Copa (Copa's farm). I still have my cassava there right now.

Getting back to my state, I didn't stop. Now I have my little farm where my MAIZE, G/CORN AND PEANUT seem to be enjoying themselves.

A small farm for now because of the financial constraint, something I planned to expand the following season, provided I'm still alive. Something I pray God will made possible.
I will come here with PICTURES.

I'm not a millionaire, not even a rich thousand holder. But I'm doing what I love and I'm happy.

There are people who love AGRICULTURE but can't summon the courage to banish that DON'T-DO-IT spirit.

I'm not an expert, in fact I'm just diving into agriculture. But I am here to motivate you, if you are yet to do something, please do. If you are doing something already, I can learn from you, you can learn from me. A REASON WHY I CREATE THIS THREAD.

I WILL PREPARE PICTURES OF MY FARMS. HOPEFULLY, THAT WILL MOTIVATE YOU TO DO SOMETHING.


I THINK THIS IS GETTING TOO LONG, LET ME CUT IT HERE TO HELP MY NEXT POST.

I endorse this guy. He's one of the best people I've met on nairaland.
Hey Bk.

I lost interest when I saw this. How possible not to attend kindergarten but able to read and write. You want to motivate somebody but you dey lie.

Lol, I did not attend kindergarten too. What will you say about that ? I should not be allowed to read n write ? Boy, you are funny.

Power on bro, I am facing some challenges on my farm am not going to quit. This can also novitiate me

This one has wasted all his energy talking. If you have plans, just do don't talk. So say the motivation psychologists.

Lesgupnigeria:
Nice one




Unfortunately what most Nigerians does is more talk,less action and funny enough, dreams don't come true with no action on it.

my advise for OP

you have taken your first step
but You will face challenges but don't give up

Thanks bro, I will surely take this with me.

aliblaginfo:
Nice one from you bro... Seems like minds would meet here. I have just started my small poultry here also, and i hope to go into crop production next season limited by cash this season. It's nice in the midst here.

I can see a man with passion, welcome bro.

I expected people like you to sniff around, that's why in my very first line, I stated that if you're here to be negative or put anyone done. It's not by force to view, comment or kill your self because of people who are trying to make things happen.

Like I always tell my sister, YOU ATTENDED A SCHOOL OF 'DADDY OH, YOYO' WHILE I WAS ONLY FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO ATTEND THAT OF 'BABA MI TIDE'. A public primary school (class 1-6) where there is nothing like kindergarten or pre-nursery. Though it's not an excuse to feel inferior.

Just trying to get you to defend yourself, I mean where are the pictures. We want to see your progress that's why we follow and even leave comments.

No problem brother, I have the pix here but I'm having issue uploading it as the size is more than 4mb each. But I have reduced the quality, I will upload now.

For the PISSUSS..... It's here.

The first batch of my PEANUT is the deep one you see me holding, I mixed it with MAIZE but on my new PEANUT of a month old which is clearly light, I mixed it with both MAIZE and GUINEA CORN.

The reason for that is because the bed for the first batch of PEANUT was done by a tractor while the second one was done manually. Knowing the manual one is always big and more covered, I try to take advantage of that.

I leave the cultivated lands for about a week for the weeds to germinate then I sprayed with a mixture of Glysote and Atrazine. The work seem effective as the weeds are still not much yet.


I reserved special appreciation and apology for NYSC as the NYSC jungle boot has been a loyal servant in freaking around the area.

Cool. If I read enough threads, I might try next year. Wish you a bountiful harvest.

Fheelz:
It's a great step and investment when herdsmen don't invade your farm.

I tell you, this is a very big problem.
