Osila2:
You don't need a lawyer AT ALL, the Memorandum and Articles of Association (M&A) is generated automatically online through the registration portal of CAC, and you can thereafter print it out.

Thank you a lot. I have just wasted my time for a few days preparing Memorandum and Articles of Association. What a waste. Anyway, thank you for letting us know.

By the way, can you or someone else guide me on how to file the annual return for my previously registered company? It appears there's no online portal for that. Please help on this.
God bless you

Simcha:
you are damn correct. With your analysis, 6 plots can occupy 4320 suckers. That's meaningful.

You mean 6 acres?

Also, when people mention plots, I personally get confused. It looks like there is no general standard for what area of land constitutes one plot. For example, I see some people saying a plot is 120 ft x 60 ft (claimed to be Lagos standard), while others say that a plot is 100 ft x 50 ft (claimed to be Ibadan standard). Also, I heard sometimes ago that the federal government standard is more than the private land standards. This leaves me confused. On the other hand, it seems acre measure is more general, and same as in other countries, ie,

1 acre = 4046 m² = 43,560 ft²

Therefore, I advise when we ask questions relating to areas of land in plots, it is better to clarify which type of plot, Ibadan, Lagos, or federal government plot, or better state the area of the land in m² or ft². The survey plan of the land will have the total area, and if you dont have that, you can use your gps enabled mobile phone to measure the area: it is very easy.

Thank you, and I welcome your corrections and ideas please.

Hello, prof. What is the normal area occupied by one plantain? How many plantains will be occupied by 100 by 50 square meter with your spacing?

Lesgupnigeria:
2.5m by 2.5m

In that case, let me bring in my maths. I may be wrong, but allow me to display my ignorance, perhaps, I will learn more from the experts' corretions.

Each plant will occupy 2.5m x 2.5m = 6.25 m².
The total available land area = 100m x 50m = 5000 m².
The No of plantain suckers that can be accommodated, assuming 100% land coverage = 5000 m²/6.25m² = 800 suckers.
If we think 100% land utilization is not realistic, then 90% coverage would mean we can comfortably push into the ground, 0.9x800 = 720 suckers.

This is way more 150 suckers. Please let me know if I made a mistake in the calculations, so that I may benefit from your knowledge. Thank you in advance.

Hello, prof. What is the normal area occupied by one plantain?

Lesgupnigeria, may I ask, what is the required spacing between suckers in both directions (along each row and across the rows)?

Lesgupnigeria:
the weather of that area is still very ok even during dry season
what i will advise you is to do manual watering at least 500L of water for the farm per week till the time rain resume fully.
It will maintain normal growth and reduce stress of the plantain.

Many thanks to you brother. More power to elbow

Lesgupnigeria:
how many acres of land is the plantain farm?depending on the area cultivated will determine the advise i can give you
and where is the farm located?

Thank you. It is about 5 acres of land. The farm is located off New-Ife/Gbongan road in osun state.

Thanks

Bros Lesgupnigeria, can u pls say something on my posts before that of Idowu2828. Thank you so much in anticipation.

and this closer look of this second batch

I have another batch of plants on the same farm, whose pics are posted as follows:

Here is another view of this batch

Here is a general outlook of this batch

Please, does anyone know the approximate minimum daily water requirement for a stand of plantain? I have a farm at a location where there is no water available anywhere in the vicinity. I am considering making a well, borehole, or supply water to on-farm reservoirs by water tankers. So I want to make a plan on that.

Related to the issue of irrigation is another question: what sort of problems am I liable to run into, if I decide not to water my plants, and how severe can these problems be. My reason for these questions is that it will be very difficult for me financially to fund the irrigation project. So I want to see if avoiding it would not be too catastrophic for me. For your reference, as for 2 weeks ago, here is the look of one batch of the plants:

Hi Gmmail,

Gmmail:
You will get better  pricing for specified target countries.

I've signed up, so how do I go about specifying target countries.

Hi Gmmail,

This easy2text looks somewhat creepy. They claimed 1 and 4 units per nigeria and global sms respectively on the 'coverage' page, but on 'faqs' page, it suddenly became 2 and 12 units. Moreso, 4 unit@#2.7 per global sms isn't good enough for my need.

I would appreciate if u could help with a better provider.

Thanks

Thanks a lot Mr Timileyin. I can't see the pricing on this routesms. Can u pls help me with other ones?

Hi great nairalanders. I need your guide and cool suggestions on a standard and reliable SMS gateway.

Pls I have a website which I need to integrate sms service to.  So I need a standard SMS gateway to connect with the following features

-API facility
-Good message delivery speed and high level of reliability
-International coverage, particularly middle east
-Competitive and Pay-as-u-go price plan, i.e, no monthly fee: buy credit and use
-Other cool features

NB: pls I dont need those type of providers who had just been helped to start SMS biz for 15K. They can't handle my needs.

Thank you all and have a cool day.

Hi great niralanders. I want to know if anyone here applied for MSc in KFUPM for the Second Semester 2009-10 admission. This is because I wish to see people to collaborate with so that we can all track the events of visa letters dispatch together.

Thanks

Hello great Nairalanders. I have a question about scoring in GRE. The school i'm eyeing for my graduate studies stipulates a minimum of a 520 score in GRE. Now after preparations, i attempted the first practice test in the ETS POWERPREP, and i scored 360 verbal and 580 quantitative, lets assume i score 5/5 in AWA, how will this score be aggregated. I want to know this so that i'll know how close i am to the required 520 by the school.

Thanks and happy Nairalanding!

Good day all. Please can anybody pls help me with the info on how to register for GRE general TEST, while in Nigeria. ETS does not allow Nigerians to pay with debit card. They list some other means to pay, but sincerely, i'm really confused.

Pls guide me. I don't want those bodies that will rob me by asking 4 $300, while the normal price is $180
