* USEFUL INFORMATION ON GROWING PARSELY AS A HERB*

It has long been considered a valuable herb and we now know it to be rich in iron and carotene. It need not be confined to herb gardens either, for in the flower garden its foliage provides a pleasant back-ground, particularly to spring bulbs.

Poor soil and over-crowding can hinder germination. Basically, parsley needs warmth for germination, a rich, deeply dug soil and plenty of room. When these conditions are satisfied, the plants will develop into dark green domes that are a joy to see and to pick.

Parsley, is naturally slow germinating, and along with carrots and celery, parsley can suffer from having seeds with underdeveloped embryos. This means that once sown these seeds still need time to develop and mature before they can germinate. Whilst in this immature state they are susceptible to soil pests and diseases and this is often the reason why germination is slow . Early sowings often also fail because the soil temperature is too low for rapid germination and development.

Parsley will germinate at temperatures from 40-90°F. The optimum temperature is 80°F with a drop during the night to 68°F, and at lower temperatures germination will take correspondingly longer. A suitable compromise particularly for early sowings, is to sow in containers at room temperature, when germination usually takes around 7 days, and transplant later on into the garden. An alternative is fluid sowing where pre-germinated seedlings are piped along the drill in an inert gel. Research has shown that this method results in better and earlier emergence.

It is usually only necessary to make two sowings, one in spring and one in the summer.
The latter crop to provide continuity of supply through the winter, and into the following spring. If you are sowing indoors it can be done as early as February for planting outside in April. Outdoors, sow in drills 1/2 to 3/4 inch deep, in rows 12 inches apart. During dry weather water the bed well before sowing and if you have persistent problems with parsley, try mixing damp peat with the seeds before sowing. Watering the drill before sowing with a kettleful of boiling water has also proved helpful, perhaps because it acts as a soil sterilant to keep disease and weeds away during the long germination period.

After germination, perhaps the most important thing is to give the plants enough room, so thin out before the seedlings begin to crowd and leave each plant finally with 12 inches of space. Light picking can commence 85-90 days from sowing and from then on should be carried out regularly along the full length of the row. This will ensure a constant supply of fresh leaves. You can dry what you do not use or even put it on the compost heap, but if you stop picking, the foliage will go coarse.

*INTRODUCING THE OLIVE TREE*

Scientific name: Olea europaea L.
Family: Oleacea,
Oleaster (O. europaea var. oleaster).

There are many varieties of olives but our interest is the Kalamata olives from Greece.

*BRIEF HISTORY OF OLIVES*

Olive cultivation dates back more than 6,000 years and it is still flourishing today, not only in its countries of origin, but now in most areas of the world.

The olive is native to the Mediterranean region, tropical and central Asia and various parts of Africa. The olive has a history almost as long as that of Western civilization, its development being one of civilized man's first accomplishments.

At a site in Spain, carbon-dating has shown olive seed found there to be 8,000 years old. The cultivation of O. europaea may have been initiated independently in both Crete and Syria.

Archeological evidence suggests that olives were grown in Crete as long ago as 2,500 B.C. From Crete and Syria olives spread to Greece, Italy and other parts of the Mediterranean area.

Over the years, the olive has been the symbol of peace, wisdom, glory, fertility, power and pureness.



*WHAT MORE TO KNOW ABOUT THE OLIVES*


*Flower induction and fruit-set*

The tree is mature enough to produce flowers and fruits at the age of about four years.

There are two basic products: olive oil and table olives. Olive oil products dominate the marketplace and 80% to 90% of olives produced are devoted to olive oil production. Most interest is in producing high quality extra virgin (EV) olive oil, for which there is good demand.


*CLIMATE FOR GROWING OLIVES*

Different olives adapt to different temperatures.Some are subtropical in nature others require humid conditions. It is, therefore, best suited to a Mediterranean-type of climate.

Some olive varieties, such as those grown in Egypt, Tunisia or Israel, bloom and fruit with very little winter chilling, whilst other varieties require more chilling for a normal flower differentiation.

*SOIL TYPE TO GROW OLIVES*

Olives grow well on almost any well-drained and aerated soil with pH values of 6.5 – 8.5. Therefore, sites where water stands during rainy periods or where ground water is shallower than 1.2 meters deep should be avoided.

Olive trees are tolerant to mild saline conditions, but extremely salty or sodic soils should be avoided. Olives have a relatively shallow root system and consequently they only require a 1.0 – 1.5 meter deep soil profile without any serious physical limitations. Olives prefer moderately fine textured soils ranging from sandy to silty clay, loamy soils.

*PRUNNING OF OLIVE TREES*

Proper pruning is important for the olive tree. Pruning both regulates production and shapes the tree for easier harvest. The trees can withstand radical pruning, so it is relatively easy to keep them at a desired height. The problem of alternate bearing can also be partially amended with careful annual pruning.

*There are three main types of pruning*:

(a) *Regulated Pruning* :

It aims to develop the tree’s frame and is of great importance in the first years of the tree’s life.

(b) *Pruning for fruiting* :

The aim of this pruning is to induce productive branches to form fruits, leaving the structural branches unaffected. Additionally, it maintains uniform production in terms of yield and quality, a feature that is particularly important in table olive varieties.

(c) *Renovating pruning*

This aims to stimulate sprouting in order to rejuvenate senescent trees.

*THINNING OF OLIVES*

Wherever table olives enjoy special premium for greater fruit sizes, it is advisable to thin the fruits, when bloom is plentiful only.
Spray the foliage 10 days after full bloom.

*IRRIGATION OF OLIVE TREES*

Because of its small leaves with their protective cuticle and hairy underside that slow transpiration, the olive tree survives even extended dry periods.

However, this defense system is at the expense of growth and productivity of the tree. Once established, olive trees are among the most drought-resistant trees in the world.

But the olive tree is not a desert plant. It needs regular watering to thrive. Insufficient water will cause the plantation to suffer and even die if left too dry for too long.

Thus, olive yield is greatly increased by applying small amounts of water. Moreover, if commercial yields are desired greater amounts of water will be needed, provided that soil humidity does not become excessive.

There are 2 – 3 extremely critical periods, during which soil moisture must be kept optimal, for maximum bearing, as follows:

For oil production, the most critical periods to avoid water stress are fruit-set and oil accumulation.

For fresh fruit production, fruit-set and fruit growth, stages # 1 & 3 are the most critical.

Olive trees are very sensitive to over irrigation and will not perform well in waterlogged soils. Waterlogged soil, often a result of poor drainage, causes poor soil aeration and root deterioration and can lead to the death of the trees.

Trees cultivated in saturated soils are more susceptible to varying weather conditions and soil borne pathogens such as phytophthora and verticillium.

Drip irrigation in many diverse agro-ecological conditions brought about considerably higher olive oil yield (30% – 50%), water savings (30% – 45%), and improvement in oil qualitative characteristics, in comparison to rain-fed and surface flood irrigation methods.

*FERTILIZATION OF OLIVE TREES*

Intensively grown olive trees will greatly benefit from a good nutrition regime. During the first years of the plantation a premium slow-release fertilizer, augmented with trace elements, is recommended.

Alternatively, soluble fertilizers may be used with high efficiency, especially by Nutrigation. If the fertilizers are broadcasted separately, be sure to water very well after application.

Many growers in Mediterranean countries apply organic fertilizers every other year. Organically derived fertilizers are available, but they are often markedly more expensive per nutritive element unit.

Top dressing with organic material such as composted manure or kitchen compost can be done, but the grower should consult carefully before using it because it is difficult to achieve a good balance of nutritional elements by this method.

It is environmentally responsible but requires more study and understanding by the grower. Always avoid placing compost or any fertilizer next to the trunk of the tree.

Whatever type of fertilizer is used, it is best to feed lightly and often during the growing season. Avoid heavy applications of soluble fertilizers that could damage plants and leach or run-off into groundwater.

*HARVESTING OF OLIVES*

Fruits that are to be processed as green olives are picked while they are still green but have reached full size.

They can also be picked for processing at any later stage, through full ripeness. Ripe olives bruise easily and should be handled with care. Mold is also a problem for the fruit between picking and curing. There are several classical ways of curing olives.

A common method is the lye-cure process in which green or near-ripe olives are soaked in a series of lye solutions for a period of time to remove the bitter ingredients, then transferred to water and finally to a mild saline solution.

Other processing methods include water curing, salt curing and Greek-style curing. Both green-cured and ripe-cured olives are popular as a relish or snack. The black color of black olives is obtained by exposure to air after lye extraction and has nothing to do with ripeness.

For olive oil production, irrigation should be stopped for the weeks leading up to harvest to avoid accumulation of high moisture content in the fruit and difficulties during oil extraction.

Optimum moisture content is 50%. Use freshly picked olives (no longer than 24 – 48 hours from picking to processor) for producing extra virgin olive oil. Harvest olive fruits at the correct time. Immature fruit will give less oil.

*INTRODUCING THE IMPORTED DWARF HIGH YIELD PRODUCING COCONUT*

Exotic coconut variety produces 150 to 200 coconuts a year compared to local variety’s that produces 50-80 coconuts per year.

This high-yielding open pollinated (op) coconut variety were first imported from Vietnam and Kerala state of India three years ago.


Local variety takes 8-10 years to bear fruit, but the short and high-yielding Vietnam variety will give fruit within three years.

The height of the coconut tree is maximum one foot when it comes to production.

We are introducing Vietnam imported coconut variety because they bear fruits within a short time. Farmers will be more benefited farming this variety, and production will rise three times than usual.

Our Nigerian soil is suitable for coconut farming as it grows fast areas with well distributed rainfall.


For instance bangladesh in India annually imports 20,000 tonnes of copra, dried kernel of the coconut, from which coconut oil is extracted, for manufacturing different branded coconut oil as local production is only 500 tonnes.

Bangladesh imports coconut copra from Papua New Guinea, Sri Lanka, India, Philippines, Indonesia and Fiji.

OIL PALM INVESTMENT IN NIGERIA.


PZ, Wilmar In $650m Oil Palm Investment
A Singapore-based Wilmar International and PZ Cusson Nigeria have entered into a joint venture and invested more than $650 million in oil palm plantations and processing facilities in Nigeria.
For instance, the company planted almost 26,500 hectares of oil palm in Cross River State.
The company’s investments in oil palm plantations and associated infrastructures in Cross River State currently stand at about N45 billion (approximately $150 million). These include a processing plant at Calaro Estate in Akamkpa Local Government Area in Cross River State. The estate consists a 45 tonne per hour palm oil mill (POM) and a 2.5 tonne per hour kernel crushing plant (KCP).
Its Chief Executive Officer, Christos Giannopoulos, said the POM basically converts fresh fruit bunches (FFB) into palm oil. This process involves extracting red palm oil from the fleshy outer mesocarp of the palm fruit. The product is known as Crude Palm Oil (CPO), similar to the red palm oil that is sold in the local market.The KCP, on the other hand, extracts palm kernel oil (PKO) from the palm kernels.The company’s palm oil mill at Ibad Oil Palm Estate in Cross River has the capacity of 20 tonnes per hour in terms of FFB processing.
He said the company has invested around N20 billion in an oil palm refinery in Ikorodu, Lagos State.
To the company, Nigeria has the biggest market in Africa and is the largest consumer of the palm oil in the region.
Currently, there is a massive gap between demand and supply. Estimates of this deficit are around 600,000 to 700,000 tonnes per annum.
Last year, he added that the company launched its Pilot Out growers Scheme. The goal is to support local farmers to develop viable and sustainable oil palm businesses.

As part of the programme, the company makes available, high quality seedlings for farmers, training them on Best Management Practices (BMPs) to optimise their yields.
For stakeholders, while there are significant efforts to reduce the gap between demand and supply of palm oil in Nigeria, there is massive smuggling of palm oil across the borders to the tune of 400,000 tons per annum due to which the federal government loses millions of dollars in revenue from duty and tax collection.

THE COCONUT AND OIL PALM MARKET .


Coconut and oil palm are the two important plantation crops grown in the wet tropics. Both the palms are monocots and produce oil from their fruits. Oil palm currently occupies the topmost position in the international vegetable oil market, while coconut is a palm with diverse uses in addition to being an oil crop.

Out of the two palms, oil palm has shown a spectacular boom in the world oil trade during the last 60 years. Systematic genetic improvement programmes of both these palms have been carried out since the first quarter of the last century due to the importance of oil palm and coconut.

Oil palm and coconut share much similar challenges in their genetic improvement for better traits owing both of these being perennial monocot palms of massive stature, cross-pollinating heterogeneous populations and certain other genetic implications. Despite these inherent constraints, considerable gains have been achieved in the breeding of both oil palm and coconut through the transfer of desirable genes from diverse sources into the cultivated material.

African oil palm populations have been most important in transfer of genes from populations of different origins. In addition, interspecific hybridization between African and American oil palms has also been carried out with success. Similarly, in coconut, much advancement has been made with respect to yield components, precocity and shorter stature using intervarietal and interpopulation gene transfer methods.

These gene transfer methods have helped to bring oil palm to the topmost position in the world oil trade and coconut to provide vegetable oil and livelihoods to millions of people in the coconut-growing countries like Nigeria.

*INTRODUCTION TO THE GROWING OF STRAWBERRIES*

*INTRODUCTION*

Picking the right strawberry cultivar requires a combined knowledge of hardiness, disease resistance, flavor, size and time of fruiting. There are June bearing, everbearing and day-neutral strawberries, each with a different time and duration of fruiting. You can also go all out and plant each of the three different types of strawberries in the garden.

*STRAWBERRY TYPES*

(i) JUNE BEARING :June bearing plants have one monster crop of berries per year. June is the general time for bearing but that may be earlier or later depending upon your zone.

(ii) EVERBEARING :
Everbearing strawberry plants have more modest/smaller sized fruits , but they can start producing as soon as there is 12 hours of daylight and continue bearing until the end of summer.We at SEEDWORLD LTD deal on this strawberry variety.

(iii) DAY NEUTRAL : Day-neutral strawberry plant types have three peak periods of fruiting. Usually, these fall as early June, mid July and late August, which provides a nicely spread out crop.

It is important to avoid growing strawberry on land where the following crops were planted the previous season, due to susceptibility to Verticillium wilt a viral disease controlled through crop rotation only. Tomatoes, capsicums, Eggplant/ okra. Diseases or insects that may have plagued those crops can be carried over and affect the strawberries.


*IMPORTANT POINTS TO NOTE IN GROWING STRAWBERRIES*


1. *LAND PREPARATION*

Strawberry gardening starts with thorough land preparation in order to raise a vigorous crop. A bed raised to 15cm with a width of 1metre by any convenient length should be prepared, and well decomposed manure incorporated into the soil at a rate of one medium bucket per square metre. Then planting holes are made at a spacing of 30cm from row to row and 30cm from plant to plant.

2. *PROPAGATION/ PLANTING*

Strawberries prefer rich, fertile soil that contains plenty of organic matter.
In strawberries gardening propagation is done using vegetative material namely splits of the strawberries crown. Planting is done after thorough watering of the bed and the roots be are well covered but not too deep so as to prevent rotting of the stem.

NB : In planting do ensure that all roots are buried and that the crown(shoots) are not covered with soil.

3. MULCHING : Mulching is a recommended post planting management practice in strawberries gardening in order to conserve moisture, control weeds and keep strawberries clean. A layer of mulch, underneath the leaves of the plants will prevent water splashing onto the soil and then onto the foliage or leaves from passing on soil pathogens. Remove any dead or decaying foliage or leaves as well, as soon as you spot it.


4. IRRIGATION : Irrigate daily in the afternoon during the first month after planting for good crop establishment and 2-3 times a week from the second month of gardening onwards. Strawberries dislike wet soil, but they also don’t tolerate drought well or dry soils, so be consistent in your watering.


4. DEBLOSSOMING : De-blossoming and removal of strawberry flowers is recommended for the first 2 months to avoid premature fruiting, which may lead to stunting and poor development of the crop.

5. FERTILIZER APPLICATION : FERTILIZERS Strawberries require a lot of nutrients hence one has to constantly avail the supply. Strawberry plants need a lot of nitrogen as they are sending out runners and producing berries. Ideally, you have prepared the soil before planting the berries by amending with compost or manure. This will enable you to lessen or eliminate the amount of additional fertilizer the plants need.

6. INTRODUCING GROWTH STIMULATORS/ROOTING AND SHOOTING HORMONE :

*USE VEGIMAX* - This stimulates the shooting and the rooting of your berry plants. Use the following foliar feeds. You too can make your own organic foliars using farm yard manure. (Please ensure the manure if fully decomposed before use) DI Grow starter .

– *Two weeks after planting Easy grow vegetative*- When shoots appear (Can be repeated every 2 weeks).

Aids in strengthening the plant in readiness of fruiting.

*DI Grow fruit*- When you want to trigger the fruiting process you can use red cap DI GROW organic fertilizer.


7.HARVESTING : Harvesting of strawberry fruits starts 2½months -3months after planting. Thinning to 2- 3 splits per crown should be done every 7 months to allow rejuvenation and increase strawberry yields. Runners and old leaves are removed in strawberries gardening in a practice called pruning or stripping.

Flowering is continuous with adequate watering with a pause in the cold season.The lifespan of the crop is 3 years.During the gardening period foliar feeds may be applied to boost the yields. Rooting media or enzymes which include plantone, Anatone1, Anatone( a broad spectrum for roots, flower stimulation and fruit retention) may enhance strawberry plant establishment.

Tie the top end of the cuttings, then dip strawberries cuttings into the enzyme solution for 42 hrs. Put fertile soil into plastic bags and plant the cuttings ensuring two nodes are below the soil level, then water frequently. Seeking knowledge on gardening of strawberries is a necessary step during the planning period.

Gdevening great farmers.We wish you all a happy New month.We wish to prepare our minds against the next planting season.




** YOU WANT TO BECOME A SERIOUS FARMER?
DO THESE THINGS BELOW.




1. *Conduct Market Survey*

Most farmers rush into farming without validating the market capability of their particular crop.

Growing any type of crop without a particular market in mind is suicidal.

Funny enough most farmers do that.

Here in Kenya, many farmers are worse. They have become a “ _me too”_ farmer.

They certify what to grow by looking at what their neighbors are growing

Due to this kind of behavior, the market becomes saturated with similar goods.

The aftermath is that competition starts to happen: the forces of economics take place. T hat is, the supply is more than the demand, thus forcing the prices to come down.

No farmer wants such a scenario.

However, that is what you will get if you fail to look for a market upfront.

You’ll pay for the mistake by squeezing your margins dry.

Therefore, for you to be outstanding, start by approaching all probable market outlets about what you intend to grow and then choose an idea based on your results.

By so doing, you will be able to know that what you intend to grow is what the market really needs.



​2. *Make Sure you Go for the right crop*

For you to optimize farm profitability, choose the right crop.

In any market, the end users will demand for more than one commodity.

As a farmer in such circumstances, you have a decision to make.

Our stand therefore would be, choose the crop that has a higher market value.

This is so because the cost of production is almost same across many crops.

For instance if you want to grow Macadamia, Hass avocado, Oranges or Mangoes, you will require land, same land preparation and same operation cost.

The difference among all these fruits is the market value.

In our case, it favors hass avocado in which case you should go for tomatoes.

3. *​Make Sure you plan well in Advance*

They say if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Ignore planning at your own peril.

No one can guarantee your success in farming but if you plan well you increase your chances of becoming successful.

Most farmers ignore this important factor and by so doing most of their ideas never see the light of the day.

If you know and adhere to this, you have an advantage over the rest of the folks.

When you clearly take your time to write a detailed farm plan, you will definitely save yourself a lot of time and frustration trying to figure out what to do next.

Any farmer can’t afford the luxury of time.

Given the perishable nature of most horticultural produce, you will have a problem if you lack a plan of action.

4. *​​Diversify your ventures*

Did you know that most successful people in Africa are also farmers.

Not just farmers but in many avenues, for example, President Uhuru is a dairy farmer, a coffee farmer, cotton farmer, sisal farmer e.t.c,.

Don’t just plant maize, diversify with other more profitable crops such as Macadamia, Avocados and Dairy.

There are some other instances where specialization is paramount, but if you want farm profitability badly, you can’t afford to specialize.

For instance if you are growing tree-tomato fruits, you could also intercrop them with other vegetables such as kales, spinach, pilipili hoho e.t.c,..

These intercropped short term crops will enable you to earn some income before your main crop.



5. *​​Be Patient and Stick to the Plan*

Although farming is a good way of earning some income and having control, it’s not magic that you plant today and suddenly, you become a millionaire.

I will tell you: farming is not for the fainthearted; it is challenging and requires patience and resilience.

In farming there are several uncertainties, such as crop failures and market fluctuations.

One year may produce a bountiful harvest, while another year may bring total devastation and little or no income.

This is all part of the business of agriculture.

Now, when you face such situation, the last thing you need to do is switch plans.

While some challenges might require a change of plans, it’s better to stick to your plan and learn from your mistakes.

It is all part of the process that eventually leads to farm profitability.

6. *Ensure You Keep Clear And Traceable Records*


Ensure your records are up-to date and accurate.

Pay attention to details.

Know where your money is generated and where it is spent.

Storing receipts in a shoe box and waiting to post figures at the end of the year is not a recommended record keeping system.

Good records will help you to evaluate your cash flow as well as project the profitability of your venture.

Having said all that, success in farming depends solely on you.

What we have told you, combined with what you know, can give you massive profits.

We urge you to work towards the above.We wish you goodluck as you apply the right principles in your farming venture.
