| Business › Organic Fertiliser and the export Economy by Ritchiee(op): 1:28pm On Feb 26, 2016 |
By using bio-fertiliser, farmers are reviving land and boosting the nation’s agro exports prospect, Daniel Essiet writes. While many farmers are battling to survive, because of the financial challenge of setting up a modern farm, organic farming method is helping Herny Adigun, chief executive, Yomex Organic Farm, to succeed. He uses organic fertiliser, mostly green manure. This helps to provide moisture and nutrients. When he began, his knowledge of farming was not much. Yet his willingness to learn and hard work have paid off handsomely – and he is an example to emerging farmers everywhere. Yomex Organic Farm based in Lagelu Local Government Area of Oyo State, showcases Adigun’s efforts to make his 16-acre farmland a self-sufficient organic. The farm is one of the largest in the area, with tomatoes, cucumber and vegetables on three acres of land. Besides growing vegetables, Adigun has spacious sheds for poultry and goats. The peculiarity of the farm is its self sufficiency in every aspect, including manure production, and its solar power unit to generate its own electricity is nearing completion. At the pace he is going, he could begin the process of applying for Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) certification or any international certification as an organic grower. Although his farm is not yet ‘official’, he regards his operation as 100 per cent organic. While exploring various business ventures, he hit upon organic farming as having a promising growth potential. He foresees a tremendous growth in the demand for organic food in the next few years. With activities of farmers, such as Adigun, organic production, has taken off successfully. Companies involved in organic farming are mostly export oriented. In the last 20 years, a lucrative international market for organic cocoa, spices, vegetables and coffee has attracted more farmers into organic farming. This is because the demand for such produce in the United States, Europe and Asia far outstrips domestic supply. The major organic produce importing countries are the United Kingdom, the United States, China, India, Germany and the Netherlands. A member of the Nigeria Vietnam Business Council, Mr Sunday Anjorin, said European and Asian markets offer good business opportunities for Nigerian organic companies that want to export their products. According to Anjorin, supermarkets, food and pharmaceutical companies are channels for organic produce. Others include bakeries, health food shops, specialised organic shops, fast food restaurants and delivery services. He said organic spices and herbs were in demand in India. So far, Germany is Europe’s largest market for organic products, with a sales volume of €5.8 billion and an average growth of 15 per cent yearly. Indeed, food exports are vital to Nigeria’s economy, and increasing participation in organic farming by exporters is a welcome boost to the already strong and expanding sector. Gradually, the ranks of certified organic farmers is swelling with the Nigerian Organic Agriculture Network (NOAN), an association that unites farmers, processors, exporters and organisations promoting the practice. To experts and farmers, as organic farming drives growth in productivity, it also allows farmers to get the most out of soil. While health-conscious consumers worldwide are providing valuable new organic export markets, most Nigerian farmers are finding it challenging meeting necessary certifications and other requirements to take advantage of the growing popularity of organic foods in industrialised countries. In most cases, new entrants incur higher costs applying new organic techniques without the higher prices associated with organic label. Most importantly, the European Union (EU) legislation requires that imported organic foods are produced to the same standards as that from the UK or EU. On the average, and to win certification, a farm must stop using most pesticides and make other changes, then maintain those practices for three years. Going organic is governed by strict government standards, which require that products bearing the organic label are made without the toxic and persistent pesticides, synthetic nitrogen fertilisers, antibiotics, synthetic hormones, genetic engineering or other excluded practices, sewage sludge, or irradiation. Beyond this, producers and processors are expected to register with an EU-approved organic control body, and subject to the import controls for organic produce. While farmers are struggling to comply with the high-level standards needed to meet certification requirements, the EU in June banned some of the nation’s food items. They included beans, sesame seeds, melon seeds, fried fish, meat and peanut chips, among others, from entering Europe till June this year. According to the European Food Safety Authority, the rejected beans were found to contain between 0.03mg per kg to 4.6mg/kg of dichlorvos pesticide. The acceptable maximum residue limit is 0.01mg/kg. Addressing a forum in Lagos, the Chairman, Agro-Commodity Export Group of the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), Dr Obiora Madu, said it was imperative for the government to resolve the issue before the June deadline given by the EU to correct the anomaly. ”Yes, there are a lot of export markets beyond Europe but if we do nothing, it is likely to escalate at the same time as other nations join the EU to reject our produce again we are in trouble. “As a chamber, we are concerned about the trend and are actively at the forefront of sensitising farmers and exporters on compliance to international standard for our produce.” According to him, food safety implies the absence or acceptable and safe levels of contaminants, adulterants, naturally-occurring toxins or any hazard that may make food injurious to health. In an interview, Madu noted that the organic export market is growing because of awareness on the dangers of pesticide residues in food and growing disposable incomes of the urban middle classes. He said organically-grown products don’t have problems because producers don’t use pesticides. Madu observed that the EU market is one of the toughest to supply because the technical, ethical, quality and packaging standards are so high. This, notwithstanding, the successful exporters expect buyers to pay a premium for the extra certification and the quality and size standards; however, they are increasingly finding that the EU is still paying lower prices. For some exporters, there are still opportunities in the world, including the EU, which makes it attractive to new exporters. With Nigeria like South Africa in its ability to produce diverse agro product ranges, he sees a bright future for aspiring exporters. Madu stressed the need for collaborative efforts of regulatory authorities and stakeholders in formulating a framework to address the challenges of the agricultural produce in the international market There are programmes to help farmer groups and small exporters overcome the challenges and take advantage of the remunerative markets. The programmes are designed to increase their technical skills and improve product quality, which will enable them to obtain organic and fair-trade certification. Some of the programmes focus on stages of the supply chain from production, harvesting and packaging to certification and marketing. The vital part is to pay for the costly certification and comply with high international quality standards. On the issue, NOAN President Prof Victor Idowu Olugbemiga Olowe said the group was at the forefront of helping farmers to meet standards for certification. To make them competitive, he said organic farmers, processors and traders must comply with strict requirements if they want to use organic logo or label their products as organic. He noted that farmers face a number of obstacles in exporting their products, including meeting buyers’ demands on quality, requirements and standards. According to him, importers require agro exports to have certification. The organic product labels should bear the name of the producer. The advantage of certification, Olowe noted, is that the exporters are able to brand their goods as “certified organic, not just organic” which would increase value. NOAN, he argued, is striving to assist farmers to adopt organic agriculture as a model for sustainable food and farming. One way to achieve this is through a national system certification that demonstrates sustainable production practices and meets food safety practices. According to him, independent validation of sustainability and quality claims is crucial for organic growers to market their produce. Globally, the major problem in the organic market is a large number of logos and brands, which confuses many consumers and potential buyers of organic products; and probably has a limiting effect on growth over several years. The other challenge is that exporters are expected to prove with documentation that their produce have fair trade certification. http://thenationonlineng.net/organic-produce-for-export/

ikeg7416:Can you disprove this facts that you are way below the SW? Lagos - Lagos is beginning to lose most its investors to neighbouring state, Ogun following the increase in incentives offered by the state. The Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN) in its latest economic review (2015) said the production value recorded by the Ogun Industrial Zone accounted for 69 percent of total production for all zones, thus re-confirming Ogun as the industrial hub of the nation . According to findings, investors get rebates on land, good road network and better security of plants, machinery and assets in industrial zones in Ogun State. Certain types of taxes paid by these investors in Lagos are also accepted by Ogun State, thus preventing them from paying multiple levies in two states. Ogun also has a one-stop-shop platform, where investors are given access to understudy available natural and mineral deposits, as well as agricultural potential of the state. Many manufacturers also say there is less harassment from touts in Ogun. Also, there is less traffic gridlock in Ogun and cheaper and more available accommodation for staff in the state. In the last two to three years, more investments have moved to Agbara, Igbesa, Abeokuta, Sango- Otta, Ibafo, Mowe, Ijebu-Ode and Sagamu industrial clusters, all in Ogun State, at the expense of Ikeja and Apapa zones in Lagos which used to be the hubs of investors. In terms of output, Ogun turned out N265.27 billion in output in half year 2015 as against Lagos’ N88.6 billion. Similarly, Ogun produced goods worth N306.58 billion in the whole of 2014, while Lagos churned out output worth N274.41 billion within the period. Some of the new investors which berthed Ogun in 2014 were Shongai Technologies Limited, Ijako in Sango-Otta, Apples and Pears Limited, Ceplas Farms Limited, Greenlife Bliss Healthcare Limited, Sumo Steel Limited, among others. http://m.news24.com/nigeria/National/News/lagos-loses-investors-to-ogun-20160209 http://m.news24.com/nigeria/National/News/diarrhoea-outbreak-kills-30-children-in-imo-20160226 1 Like |

ikeg7416:lol...read this: Nigeria's agricultural products fall into two main groups: food crops produced for home consumption, and exports. Prior to the Nigerian civil war , the country was self-sufficient in food, but increased steeply after 1973. Bread made from American wheat replaced domestic crops as the cheapest staple food. [5] Food crops The most important food crops are Rice, yams and manioc ( cassava),Rice, in the south and sorghum, Beans, and millet in the north. [5] Cocoa Cocoa is the leading non-oil foreign exchange earner but the dominance of smallholders and lack of farm labor due to urbanization hold back production.

| Politics › The Laudable Deal Between Naf And Innoson Motors. by Ritchiee(op): 9:52am On Feb 25, 2016 |
WE join other delighted Nigerians in applauding the recent deal between the Nigeria Air Force NAF and the Nnewi, Anambra State-based Innoson Vehicles Manufacturing (IVM) Company Ltd. Under this deal, IVM manufactures spare parts for the Air Force to keep its Alpha Jets platform fully operational in the war against the Boko Haram terrorists in the North East. According the Captain Ayodele Famuyiwa, the NAF Director of Public Relations and Information, the Force would have been made to ground the Alpha Jets had it not been for the gallant efforts of the indigenous motor manufacturer “as no help was coming from outside the country”. The IVM, according to the Air Force Spokesman, helps to modify and overhaul the brake assembly of the MB-339 for adoption on the Alpha Jets. The significance of this collaborative effort is fundamental. It is a wonderful example and prompter on the need for us as a country to begin to look inwards for solutions to our problems, which we had foolishly depended on external sources to provide for us. We are particularly cheered by the fact that this collaboration is part of the vision of the current Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, to forge strategic partnerships with both government and public organisation for enhanced research and development. At a time when the nation’s economy is suffering from foreign exchange crunch due to worldwide oil glut and the rapidly dwindling value of the Naira against foreign currencies, we must now make self reliance a broadbased national policy. Nigeria has what it takes to produce most of the things we have been importing from other countries. Innoson is just one of the many local resource platforms that have been neglected in preference for foreign suppliers of manufactured goods, some of them as mundane as toothpicks. This great example demonstrated by the NAF and IVM, if emulated in other areas, will go a long way in reducing the high level of mass unemployment and the prevalence of violent crimes among the restive youth. It is a wonderful way of keying into President Muhammadu Buhari’s agenda of diversifying the economy and creating jobs. We must seize the opportunity provided by the current economic downturn to explore the vast human and natural resource potentials of this nation and turn them to our advantage. The authorities of the Nigerian Air Force deserve commendation for leading the way in looking inwards for solutions as opposed to their predecessors who are being accused of misappropriating funds given to them to source for weapons to defend the nation. No nation ever becomes great by depending on the finished goods of other countries. We must join Innoson and other local manufacturers in saying: “Yes, we can”. Everybody say...WE DEFINITELY CAN DO IT. Bits and bits,we would surely get there . Mynd44 what says you? |

| Politics › This Is How The First DNA Forensic Laboratory In Nigeria Will Reduce Crime Rate by Ritchiee(op): 9:07pm On Feb 24, 2016 |
With visionary leadership and commitment, Lagos state is fast becoming one of the most developed cities in Africa. More than any other state in Nigeria, the Lagos state government seems rather focused on building a functional and safe city for its residents. Since he became the governor of Lagos state, Akinwunmi Ambode has made the commitment to build on the foundation his predecessor laid, by moulding the state into an advanced city. In view of this, the Lagos State government announced, on Tuesday, the 23rd of February, that a DNA forensic laboratory will be established in Lagos and will kick off operations within the next year. The State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Adeniji Kazeem, while speaking on behalf of the government, stated that the laboratory will be in charge of collection and preservation of reference and evidential DNA which can later be used in identifying criminals. Also, the DNA evidence will help to decode familial relationships of individuals and identify victims and remains after natural and man-made disasters. On the benefits of the laboratory to the judicial system, Kazeem noted that the centre will assist the judiciary to challenge an alibi, confirm physical presence of suspects at the scene of a crime and the origin of DNA to such suspects. Lagos state’s commitment to fighting crime is commendable given the alarming crime statistics reported last year. According to the Guardian Newspaper, the Police Commissioner, Fatai Owoseni, reported that within the past year, there were 220 murder cases, 25 kidnap cases and 44 armed robbery cases. Also, over 200 cars and items worth millions of Naira were recovered by the police. While the Lagos State government may be commended for its recent efforts towards reducing crime in the state by donating more cars, vans and helicopters to the Nigerian police, this new DNA forensic laboratory presents an easy and effective method to identify criminals. What may be a major stumbling block to this initiative is the lack of documentation in the country and also, that the Lagos state government has not given clear guidelines regarding how the DNA will be gotten. How does the government intend to get people’s DNA? Will all the families in Lagos have to do the DNA test? Nonetheless, if the government can get this right, it will go a long way in nipping crime in the bud and exonerating the innocent in criminal investigations. http://venturesafrica.com/this-is-how-dna-forensic-laboratories-will-reduce-crime-rates-in-lagos-state/ Would the area boys' syndrome be reduced by this feat?  1 Like |

blueAgent:There Is A Nigerian Astronaut In Space....yes,we already have Tunde Abacha in space...lol There is a Nigerian Astronaut in space and he needs your help FEBRUARY 15, 2016 BY VICTOR EKWEALOR Nigerian Twitter is one of the most fun places to be on earth.You cannot go through your timeline and keep a straight face. Naija people would not let you keep a poker face required to scroll through the social web detached. You will either laugh, cry or even curse. From the obnoxious wolves of Naija Twitter forcing unnecessary trends to the armchair hypocritical philosophers and social media activists, there is no dull moment on Nigerian Twitter. Over the weekend I stumbled upon a startling revelation while scrolling through my Twitter timeline, apparently there is a Yoruba man floating in space somewhere and we did not even know. In learning about this Nigerian astronaut, I was so full of admiration and pride for my country, but further investigation revealed a nasty norm. From the look of things, Air Force Major Abacha Tunde has been floating in space since 1990, that is 26 years now(never mind his cousin forgetting basic 2+2). And his cousin that is a namesake of one our big pastors around here has been soliciting for funds from foreigners to help bring the astronaut home and of course promising to share entitlements with them in ‘due course’. I am not going to dissect the intricacies of this scheme’s folly like the fact Dr. Bakare Tunde does not know that 1990 till now is 26 years and not 14, or that after 26 years (or 14 as you wish), Major Abacha is hanging somewhere lacking gravity and is still ‘in good humour’ as the letter claims. I am not going to poke holes into the story. My major concern is the fact that this is coming at a time when Nigeria is trying to rebrand and save face amidst a tainted global image. At a time when we are flooding Twitter with # NigeriansAreNotCriminals , somebody is somewhere fabricating the most incredible tales of Nigerian spacemanship to fleece foreigners to the detriment of the already battered Nigerian image. Apparently, this scam has been around for a very long time now, counting over 6 years and beyond. Three years ago, the National Space Research and Development Agency (NSRDA) said 2015 was the year they would produce the first Nigerian astronaut in space and 2015 came and went, we did not hear anything from them, maybe this year again then? Astronaut in space or not, somebody was actually doing their homework and studying the terrain. The news apparently made the scammers dredge up the astronaut story, dust it up and look for new magas . An uninitiated mark would be conned because looking the story up on Google would lend it some credence with the NSRDA story somewhere in the background as backing. Thanks to a brave woman, there is a Nigerian flag in the North Pole and Mountain Kilimanjaro of course. There is a good representation of Nigeria everywhere. But everybody take note, we are NOT in space yet. We will get there someday soon. NSRDA said 2015, maybe 2016? Or sometime in the nearest future, we are just not there now. Please just leave Air Force Major Tunde Abacha to hang in space and keep taking selfies, we would be in contact with him on Instagram. And tell everybody to tell everybody, spread the word. |

Druckerman is the author of Bringing Up
Bébé (The Penguin Press: 2012),[1] which
was published in the United Kingdom under
the title French Children Don't Throw Food
(Doubleday UK: 2012),[2] and Lust In
Translation (The Penguin Press: 2007).[3]
Her Op-eds and articles have appeared in
The New York Times,[4][5][6] The
Washington Post,[7][8] Marie Claire, Monocle
and elsewhere. From 1997 to 2002 she was
a staff reporter at The Wall Street Journal.
She has a master's degree from Columbia
University's School of International and
Public Affairs and from Colgate University in
1991.
Lust, along with several accompanying
magazine and blog pieces, examined the
nature of infidelity in marriage. Druckerman
has asserted that North America is the worst
place to have an extramarital affair, because
of the high degree to which Americans
expect honesty from their committed
partners, and observed that the French
attitude towards such affairs is more
understanding of adultery. [9]

A Kenyan Historian has come up with his new research that the most adulterous and fetish tribe in Africa is Yoruba Read: Infidelity is universal. But which country boasts the most cheaters? The tableau of adulterous and fetish have become famous internationally as proof that the Yoruba (a tribes in Nigeria) are uniquely known for extramarital affairs. In fact, although Yorubas seem to have an infidelity record approaching 100 per cent, ordinary Yoruba men and women claim it is a way of life. In a 2004 world survey, In Yoruba land, just 88 per cent of married men and 92 per cent of women said they had had more than one sex partner in the one week (the worst approximation of infidelity even worst than Sodom) . I quickly discovered that global sex research is patchy and incomplete. Even serious researchers can't even agree on what to call infidelity. Nigerians prefer the term "sexual networking." and "simultaneous multi-partnerships." Then there's the tricky matter of what constitutes cheating. A poll in one South African magazine had separate categories for men who cheat, and men who cheat "while drunk." One American survey defined sex as "either vaginal or anal intercourse," while another decided that sex is a "mutually voluntary activity with another person that involves genital contact and sexual excitement or arousal, that is, feeling really turned on, even if intercourse or orgasm did not occur." But all these are common among Yorubas, a tribe in Nigeria. In our research we are yet tried to count their so-called "emotional affairs," in which the "cheaters" might never meet. Though, we are still making more findings on Yoruba race to conclude their fetish belief which they called "magoon." source" retudworldadulterous recordthuy854yv5902:/x Look at the non existent source...Imagine a stinking,dirty,smelling CANNIBAL like you and your brother wailing for nothing...lol |

After François Mitterrand’s funeral, a photo
showed the late president’s mistress and
illegitimate daughter standing by his grave
alongside his wife and sons. That tableau
has become famous internationally as proof
that the French are uniquely tolerant of
extramarital affairs.
In fact, although French presidents seem to
have an infidelity record approaching 100
percent, ordinary Frenchmen claim to be
quite faithful. In a 2004 national survey, just
3.8 percent of married men and 2 percent of
women said they had had more than one sex
partner in the past year (the best
approximation of infidelity)—fewer than in
similar surveys in the United States and the
United Kingdom.
If France isn’t the world capital of adultery,
which country is? I set off around the world
to find out.
I quickly discovered that global sex research
is patchy and incomplete. Even serious
researchers can’t even agree on what to call
infidelity. Nigerians prefer the term “sexual
networking.” The Finns use the morally
neutral term “parallel relationships.” A
French team uses an expression perhaps
better suited for an accounting course:
simultaneous multipartnerships.
Then there’s the tricky matter of what
constitutes cheating. A poll in one South
African magazine had separate categories for
men who cheat, and men who cheat while
drunk. One American survey defined sex as
“either vaginal or anal intercourse,” while
another decided that sex is a “mutually
voluntary activity with another person that
involves genital contact and sexual
excitement or arousal, that is, feeling really
turned on, even if intercourse or orgasm did
not occur.” Americans haven’t yet tried to
count their so-called emotional affairs, in
which the cheaters might never meet.
Many countries simply have no reliable sex
statistics. National surveys are expensive,
and many governments are either too
prudish or too poor to help pay for them
(private funding is seldom sufficient).
America’s first representative national survey
only got off the ground in the 1990s, after
conservative members of Congress spent
years trying to block it. Hints of Japan’s
infidelity levels come only from the
enormous size of the country’s paid-sex
industry, which is famously frequented by
married businessmen. A legal loophole
permits a man and a woman to strike a
private agreement for sex. Understandably,
the state would rather not be confronted with
the details.
In Russia, just talking about sex research can
be hazardous. Soviet governments barely
permitted any public discussion of sex, let
alone a survey that might embarrass the
government by showing that Russians were
engaging in banned activities like
extramarital affairs. And though the Soviet
Union collapsed in 1991, Russia’s Orthodox
church keeps the current government from
funding practically anything related to sex. That is what your cannibal brother posted down there... |
