Dear Diary,

Weeds are sprouting on our groundnut farm once again

We did manual weeding today but will continue tomorrow morning

We discovered the seeds Are coming outside of the root, we're fetching soil to cover it up.
This will inadvertently lead to more seeds during harvest

Diary,

I'm glad everyday seeing what's becoming of my farm across different locations.

Good night diary,
Much Love
Keju

They asked you to explain why the receipt you offered has a price higher than what the product is worth, and how come your entry into the books showed a price lower than the actual price, and your response is the definition and history of bookkeeping. Guilty conscience is killing you, simple! 😆😅🤣😂

It the first harvest from different varieties of crops on my 15 acres farm.
The output is encouraging despite inconsistent water supply.
The best bet is irrigation system which is in progress.

This is the second truck load trip to market

Well we aren't using oxen to pull the plow, but machine like tricycle both pickup and keke napep type, while others use car etc.
Both the plow and the machine wasn't mine, but Friend's.

I planted about 15,000 pineapple suckers around June 2020, followed due process of it's farming.

Last year, I induced it all, and about 12,000 of the pineapple stands started fruiting, at first I was scared of how to sell 12,000 fruits, but when I started getting intouch with fruit sellers in my area, I was able to get many customers even more than what I needed.

I harvested over 10,000 fruits at ones and sold in dozens, I have about 600 dozens bigger sizes of pineapple fruits which I sold for ₦6000 per dozen.
I realized approximately ₦3,600,000 on just 600 dozens of bigger sizes fruits
I still have some smaller sizes left which I sold for ₦3000 per dozen

Planting just 15,000 suckers, and harvested about 12,000 fruits after spending about 700k on the farm.

Now I believe what some pineapple farmer always say, pineapple farming is a cool money investment...

Pineapple farming is a lucrative agrobusiness, invest in it if you have the opportunity.

But they are building a $570 million transmission line to those West African countries, so if distribution and transmission is the problem like I have been hearing why is that money not spent in Nigeria to build distribution and transmission capabilities. Or is the electricity going to be wirelessly transmitted to the four West African countries?

HAPPY EASTER everyone, hope you all had a blissful day, now to the answers....

1. Am harvesting, my Cassava June and yes it's easier harvesting during the raining season the soil is soft and wet so pulling the Cassava out of the soil ain't to difficult, now a little bit of crop science Cassava grows in stages and during the dry season the Cassava generally shuts down, the leafs fall off, and growth partially stunts, this is its way of coping with the drought but once the rain resumes even if it's just a rain you see the Cassava in days looking all green with new stems etc this is the cassava taping starch and water from the tubers underneath to help it grow, it's a very bad idea to harvest just after the rains resume even if your Cassava is up to 12months. you can harvest a month or 2 after the rains by this time, your tubers ain't just back to its former size but it's added in size and moisture content...

2.. I think Cassava is of more value after the very first harvest season.

3. An Acre here I will be using 5plots of a 100 by 100 that's how we measure in my locality.. Dyna is here once again, a plot that does "extremely" well can give you 1.5dyna load a Dyna should be able to produce 6 to 10 basins of garri depending on the kind of tuber, moisture content etc. garri production really has no fixed input to out put conversion rate because no variable is constant. time of harvest, variety, peeling, fermentation all this can affect output..

I chose to use Dyna because you really can't run from it esp if your business would be within your location, you can use the example I gave of a plot to calculate an Acre even heactres. I hope I was of help, thank you..
please my bosses can help out more and correct me if possible too

Thanks. I currently use a costly method - wire mesh.

Centrifugal pumps are designed for volume flow, not pressure. And what farmers need is the volume with some pressure. And centrifugal pumps can meet these demands. Too much prseeure is bad for your hose, drip, PVC pipes, joints etc.

Farmerakinloye6:
This 10hp, four inches mouth for those planning to irrigate hectares. If I have this kind of pumping marching I will convert the mouth to 2 inch.

okoroemeka:
sometimes you don't need to be a professor to separate facts from fiction and see the red flags,a research breakthrough of such by an unnamed Nigerian University will have research papers, academic journals, newspaper reports,farmers updates and videos littered all over the internet, assuming the crop is planted and germinated in 5 days,it will take just 15 days to grow up and flower,then it will take another 20 days for the pods to mature and be harvested,we need solid facts by farmers that has planted such not just a link on naira land

JeAgro477:
I use glyphosate for the grown weeds and pendilin as preemergence

JeAgro477:
I sometimes use mechanical methods but in most cases i use chemicals

JeAgro477:
2 bags of fertilizer urea and npk @15000 seeds 500 grams @15000 2bottles of insecticides at 4500 each@9000 2 bottles of herbicide at 1300 each @2600 1liter of supergro at 5000 one sachet of humus Plus @3500 a sprayer @7500 2bottles of imi force at 400 each=800 total 1 bottle of pendilin at 4500 totaling 62900

JeAgro477:
Before you think of planting watermelon ensure that have a sprayer (knapsack)have your pesticide,fungicide,fertilizers both liquid and compound i recommends supergro and urea/npk get your pre-emergence and post emergence herbicides available

Vital info for new plantain plantation owner
The info was necessary because of Qs new and potential plantain farmer usually ask on my SM pages

1. When a sucker is 6months, it has attain puberty and any treatment in terms of nutrient addition is a pure waste of time and resources. All nutrient application is to be done b4 the sucker is 6months. It takes the sucker 5-6months to take all it need to produce good fruit from the soil. Any further application of nutrient after 6months will only make the sucker pseudo-stem grow fatter. I don't think you intend to sell the pseudo-stem

2. A sucker stem that has not bear a fruit will always continue to grow even when it cut off. But the moment it bear fruit it has completed it life-cycle. So whether you cut it or not, it will whether off. This is the reason we often cut off the sucker after cutting off the bunch. Cutting off the sucker will enable more offspring to shoot out around the parent.

3. After 4weeks of transplanting, always apply fertilizer (NPK 12:12:17). If you have access to potash (Eru from Aro) then apply to the base of each stand. When the sucker attain puberty, then heap soil round the base to fortify the root and to enhance more suckers growing around the parent.

For more info, contact kenfarm
Cheers!!

Instead of improving our transmission and distribution network to enhance electricity supply to the citizens they chose to bring in another country to tap the grossly inadequate power we get.
Until we start to make these people accountable for their deeds, they won't stop to mess with us.

Azura and Osssiomo power plants were constructed and working perfectly without a penny investment by the federal government versus nipp power projects that are beset with so many bottlenecks. Lcc at a time constructed their road and maintaining it before Lagos state took it over from them. Any project that is not economically viable for the private investors to key in to should be deferred otherwise we will run into bankruptcy Dangote and private modular refineries are moving in strides Bua own is coming up strongly while the government refineries are languishing even with all the turnaround maintenance

How can anyone justify additional debt burden? Madam minister just informed us that Federal Government retained revenue between January and May 2020 was N1.48 trillion and debt service was N1.25 trillion. If we continue with this trajectory, in a very short while, debt service will be higher than retained revenue. The government should just make the environment conducive for the private sector to thrive and take the back seat. They should just accept the fact that power has changed hands unlike before when petro dollars still imbue government with strength and they can grand stand
