The two sisters were communicating

It only appeared as noise to you because of the limitation of your senses. Same way dogs barking appears as noise to us.

Because we can't hear it doesn't mean it's not there.


If mankind can make devices to correct vision deficiency by way of eye glasses, then mankind should also be able to make devices to correct hearing deficiency... making what cannot be perceived, to be.
Same way blurry vision appears perfect with eye glasses.
Blurry noise can appear perfect with ear glasses.

Visible light and sound are same. Just difference in frequency and other factors

Imagine you could hear your chickens talk. You'll know exactly what to feed them to grow healthy. You'll know how to take proper care of them because they'll tell you how to do so, naturally, instead of depending on man's science which is devoid of life most of the time

Akinola100:
The use of plastic buckets 🪣 is more sustainable than feed and cement sacks but they also face the same fate like sacks but it would just take a little longer. After making research, I discovered that tyres could be a better option,
1. Controlling land pollution as the tyres would be of good use
2. Tyres are wider and can take in a lot of soil,consequently allowing plants roots to spread
3. Doesn’t experience breakdown like in sacks
4. You could add more depth for deep rooted
plants by simply stacking tyres on top of each other.

Do you remember the original reason for sack farming in the first place?

What do you think? Would you embrace tyres for planting. Let me hear your comments below

Hi..


So I am kind of new to this section but I have been following it for a while on the low low.

Here is my story. So at the close of last year, I decided to take on a new project in Agriculture this year. This project is very large and I have spent the better part of this year focusing on this project.

The Project: Setting up a Large Scale integrated farm. Primary Livestock being Poultry for eggs and meat and the primary crop yet to be decided on (ideas for this would be welcome). The end game for me is processing. I intend to be going into the frozen food market for processed meat like frozen chicken, meat, sausages and the works.

Progress so far. I have been in training since the start of the year. Main objective of my training is in farm management. Basically how to manage a large scale integrated farm.

I have also acquired two pieces of land measuring 100,000sqm and 75,000sqm respectively. Both properties are within looking distance of each other so the management isn't going to be too much of a problem.

Biggest Challenge:: Security! Security!! Security!!! I have thought long and hard about how to overcome this challenge and I keep coming up blank.. Fencing both properties will cost in excess of 30 Million Naira.. That isn't something I am willing to do even if I could afford it. The Land is located about 3 - 5km from the nearest populated part of the host town. The 75ksqm land isn't situated directly on the main access road and can't be seen from the road as such cos there is a large property in front of it and surrounded on all sides by bush. The area isn't even remotely developed. Mostly other smaller farms around me. The 100ksqm property is on the main road and would be the operations base of the farm (accommodation, equipement, storage, offices and the works).. Also surrounded by bush

So I figure I bring it here to pick the brains of other Nairaland farmers who operate large farms like these and how they have gone about it.

Here are some thoughts I am currently playing with:

1. Digging a 6 feet × 6 feet trench right around the farm.

2. Attempting to do a pillar and barbed wire fence. But all I feel somebody will just cut them and take them away in addition to looting my crops.

3. Community engagement.. I will be getting my base workers from the community anyhow, but then they wouldn't be on the farm at night and the inhabited part of the village is a distance from my location.

Farm Location: Anambra State


... Opinions are highly welcomed especially from people who operate similar scale farming project or have worked on one.

Thanks.

I rented a self contained apartment last year March at 70ķ. On February, this year, the landlord called to tell me that my rent has expired. I told him that my rent will expire on March but he insisted so I told him okay. I also told him that I will be paying by the end of March and he agreed. I thought all was settled until I heard him saying that he has increased his rent to 150k. I was like how on earth and why telling me now. We argued and he told me 130k last while I stood at 100k. I argued that the duration of notice is short. So we couldn't settle, so he ended the call. I later found out that three people were engineering him to increase his rent or throw me out. These three people are close to me. I feel betrayed and looking for another accommodation. Ì wanted to stay because of the yard, we are just two tenants and I have a small garden of cassava.
I spoke with the landlord 8 days ago and we settled and 110k. Just today, he has changed and now demanding 120k. Ìt is getting out of my budget and too, having those three friends around isn't giving me happiness anymore. I am confused.

Hello everyone, I want to share the outcome of my business dealings with a fellow Nairalander, and how things went down. Sometimes, what we think is smart might turn out to be foolishness.

I posted on this platform seeking a partner for cassava farming, and someone showed interest. We began talking, and I invited him to join the partnership. Since I was also new to Benue State, I was staying with a friend, who initially wanted to charge the man rent for accomodations, but I asked him to forget, that since the man was supposed to partner with us. Later, I regretted not allowing my friend to collect rent from him.

When the man arrived, I took him to see the farm where I had already started cultivating cassava, and promised to show him another land soon. However, he expressed interest in having his own personal farm, while still partnering with us. I agreed, and together with my friend, we started looking for land for him. He insisted that if we couldn't find land for him, he would leave, so we worked hard to find it.

Eventually, we secured a large land, and he paid for the clearing of the land. I was in a hurry to finish his farm so we could begin our partnership, and personally went to the bush to gather cassava stems for planting 19 ulah that 400* 19. Sometimes, he would follow but do nothing, which I didn’t mind because I saw him as a brother. However, he only paid for one set of cassava stems, which was not enough to plant a substantial area, it only planted 376heeps. My friend and I provided the remaining stems.

I gave him advice, sharing my past experiences of wasting money on failed investments in Benue and how farming might have been a better path. I mentioned how I once started a cassava factory and a animal farm, which didn’t succeed because of human wickedness, and that if I had a network of investors, I would’ve suggested investing in cassava factory . he became interested and.even suggested that he could partner with me in a garri factory, combining our efforts for mutual benefit.( he brings the money and i and my friend provide mannpower and any thing we could source locally we would do it)

Despite the challenges I faced, I managed to make connections with people who could offer land for our business. I discussed how garri could be sold in markets like Port Harcourt and Jos, where demand was high. We agreed to start the factory, but when it came time for actual physical work, my friend and I were the ones carrying out the labor—gathering materials from the bush and clearing the site. The man, however, stayed behind.

Once the work began, he told my friend he didn’t want me involved in the factory anymore because he couldn’t manipulate me like he was manipulating others. He also expressed doubts about my intentions, suggesting I might run off with the garri. This was hurtful because I had always helped him, even when things were tough.

Eventually, he and my friend had an argument, and my friend was forced to leave and asked him to leave his house. I decided to step in and assist him since my friend was no longer around. But when I organized transportation to bring the garri to Jos, he suddenly claimed he had made other arrangements without even consulting me. The most frustrating part was that he never gave me any financial compensation for the work I had done—except for a loan of 25k that I had to take from him to visit my factory, which ultimately didn’t work out.

When my friend and I demanded compensation for the time and effort we had put into the business, the man used money to bribe the local authorities, and they sided with him, embarrassing themselves in the process. My friend got some compensation, but I received nothing.

In the end, when I was about to leave, people advised me to harvest his crops and take the profits, as he had been unfair. I agreed, and we harvested some of his farm, selling part of the produce while leaving the rest for him.

Now, looking back, what would you have done differently if you were in my position?

otipoju:
I.umderstand. Going forward I have resolved to be more selective as to who I allow to stay in my space.

I've given way too much of myself to people who needed a lift. Family, Friends and Aquintances.

This has really been draining and the next 3 to three to five years is for the sponge to cleanse itself.

I realize that majority of my friends and family expect me to "fix it"for them and have become used to it ,to the point that they find it hard to believe that I might even be going through anything at all. I even seem to attract people that I can pour into.

Its all good. Everything has its own season. The next five years is all about me and me alone.

otipoju:
Lol. Even able to speak big English sef na asset.

Women love words...and you can use it to take them places deep inside them.

Long short be her safe space.
