There are different types of digester, but the cheapest is the one they use sun-resistant waterproof to construct. They call it the bag digester and if you know plumbing you can build your own. With digester like that you don't put grass because it can block the outlet. You only use manure and some kitchen wastes. If you're looking for where to start educating yourself about biogas digesters, I wrote about them here.

God bless u sir more wisdon IN JESUS NAME.THANKS

Pavore9:
This biodigester (the one with canvass/tarpaulin) is the owner's patent so the thickness and quality of the canvass is not in my privy!

Ok sir, since u know it teach me nw atleast wit pic i wl understand.thnks

@pavore9 pls give us online video that wl reveal sted by step procedure in building d digester and d whole process of the biogas production.thanks

Kalusam:
In the south, the demand for fufu(whether odourless or not) is always increasing. Fufu sells far better than garri(in terms of price) and takes less stress and cost in producing!

God bless u jare, even in d southwest fufu is in high demand, we realise much profit frm fufu processing out garri, cassava powder and starch dat we processed in our project work @ college of agriculture akure.thanks

jethro2:
Please get some practical experience from a practising farmer nearby. The nursery is the most delicate part of growing vegetables.
You also need to apply poultry waste and sawdust or rice shaft to your soil before planting.
The quantity applies also affects your germination rate.
I know there are some online videos but i don't have.

Thanks ma

jethro2:
What method are you currently using?
Are you using seed tray or our own method?
How do you handle your soil before planting?
I now use a system introduce to us by IFDC.
I think I attach one of the picture on the thread

Wot i does is dat i first clear d land wit cutlass and then use spade or hoe 2 mix d soil and then make platform frm it and then spread d planting material on d platform, cover it wit light soil and then cover it wt palmfrond.pls ma if possible give me practical video of how u re doing it.thanks.i mean online video.

@ madam jethro2 pls how do u nurse ur tomatos and u re getting almost 80%, i used 2 nurse pepper but hardly get 40% out of it pls teach ma. Thanks.

jasper7:
Okay this got me laughing... sheyi no wan hear any other side of the story Lol. @sheyi. I think cassava wound you well well . but it's well o. Just try and take a deep breath, open your mind. look into the possibilities of what they are saying. Go out to the field, and investigate. Easy bro.

thanks 4 ur piece of advice, i really appreciate ur work on cumcumber. Actually i was into garri processing sm years bck but day in day out pple consume garri hw profitable this thing is? D way pple are presenting dis thing is as if it so profitable nw compare 2 veg production, dis very year i av made 8k frm amaranthus i didnt concentrate on it, i'm just doing it along with poultry work, 2day i ask a girl dat came frm kano state d price of garri overthere she said d garri is even cheaper than dis place, i ask her dat who re those supplying them and she said it is benue state dat is supplying them which is nt so far frm kano state. Now where are dis pple supplying their product and they re make million frm cassava product, are they d only 1 producing it.Sir hw many pple tackle u on cucumber stuff? Late last year my mum bought 2 pcs of cucumber @100 is dat nt reality of wot u av stated so far abt cucumber?i wl always respect for d fact u used 2 state bt sir try and go into cassava processing and c wot is going on.thanks

FarmTech:
..
I don't see them as such and like I said, it is all about proper marketing and God's help.

but sir who re those consuming dis cassava products are they frm other planets. The only way 2 make profit frm dis business is after processing it e.g garri, u take it 2 market sell directiy 2 d consumer dat is d only way.thanks

stagger:
At least Jethro2 is a lot more articulate when presenting her own side of the coin. You; you no just get one sense for your head. What is your own contribution to this thread? What is your story?

thanks.i think it is beta 2 kp quiet than stating wot is nt real.

@farmtech forget,legsup and stagger are just article writter, which market are they supplying,hw are they parkaging their product dat others do nt do, this is practical farmer's threard nt just an article, show me d set of pple dat are really making it frm cassava nt cocoa o.

Lesgupnigeria:
How many successful cassava farmers have you met?
See and meet successful farmers beyond your location.
Stagger has said it all and no need to comment much
If you are wise, i believe you should parley with people that have made money and gain more experience in this business.

It will be better if you open your mind to learn more instead of talking what you dont know.

Do you think that you will make profit when everybody have access to the same markets or buyer?

Thats what the local farmers use to do that make buyers take advantage of them.
I always want to create my own market and serve the market.


Agribusiness is different from agriculture. Agribusiness is doing your market research well,creating the market for your produce and supplying the market.

Stagger has open up one out of numerous strategies to make fortune in this business.
You Better grap it and start taking action on how to make work for you instead of saying what you dont know

wit wot u and stagger av stated so far, i can say dat u re just office or sitting room farmer dat base on theoretical aspect of farming u re nt a practical farmer at all, mind u 70% of d theoretical aspect is nt applicable practically.Stop luring pple into wot is real.Go for real.

@ tadeus i av been following dis ur so far and i discover dat ur price is unbelievably affordable dat is gud of u.Can i get manual full optioned golf 3 @ 500k.thanks.

stagger:
In your own state, how many foodstuff markets are there? Do you know all of them?

I do not live in the South West. But let me help you by giving you some information which will help you.

For gari, the market flow in Nigeria is like this:

Smallholder units in villages---->rural markets--->urban markets----assembly markets----->destination markets in other states.


You can get in at any of these points. Take a look at the attached map.

Thanks sir

Lesgupnigeria:
I do not want to comment initially because i always want to mind my business but as my name being mentioned, i feel the need to put out one or two statements.

@sheyi86: can you please state what i stated on the guy's thread that is not true here?

You sound like a neophyte.

Because you make loss in processing your cassava, does it means other processors are not making good profit?
If you do make loss,then it means that you don't know some things that will make you also to make profit and need to go for more knowledge from experts that are making money from the venture.

When i was starting out in agribusness,i once lose over half a million cultivating watermelon.

Does that mean if someone comes out and say he/she make millions of.naira from watermelon criticise or label him as a fraud?

I learnt from my mistakes,learn from established watermelon.farmers and since then all the watermelon i cultivated was profitable,likewise for other crops.

A lot of theories i would not want to puncture here because everybody has right to his/her own opinion.
Even 2 farmers cultivating the same crop, at the same location cannot be guaranteed to make profit. One may make profit while the other may make loss.
It all boils down to experience, indepth knowledge of the crops and the market, contacts of reliable buyers,managerial skills. e.t.c

Do u remember dat undagraduate dat asked 4 advice on which crop 2 cultivate while on campus? Dat u qouted jethro abt cassava stuff.in ur proof there u make mention of a processor u partner wit which after supplying ur cassava 2 him his machine got fault and u waited 4 sm month b4 he could pay u. Sir, do u think it is profitable 4 farmer after waiting 4 a yr plus and then wait some months b4 he could get his reward 4 his labour? Pls lets be realistic all d buyer u mention wia re they? Are they in heaven? How many farmers can access dis pple, cassava production is nt d issue bt d market.we all knw dat cocoa farmers are smilling all d time because there is always market 4 dis produce regardless of d location.Wot nw happen 2 cassava farmers in nigeria, how many of dis farmer can even sponsor their children thru cassava? If good market 4 cassava really exist it shouldnt be hidden.so, dat is reason y i said wot u say abt cassava is nt true and wot u stated as a proof 4 jethro does nt convince me at all.thanks. Bt i wish 2 learn smthns abt WM frm u.
