emmanuelbrown26:

Keep growing, one day somebody might like to invest in path u hv choosing

Thanks for the prompt advice sir, but I'm seriously running out of Capital.

Bankowner:
I know what GMO means bro.
Except you're telling me food from Ghana and Nigeria are now genetically modified in Africa.
African stores here sell pretty much every kind of African food, except that they are expensive.
If you want ugwu from Nigeria, you'll get it here.

I get you bro, and i wish you all the best. But one can Never be too careful about diet concerns cos it directly affects the overall health of the people.

NobleSeed:
Nice one op
Followed the thread to this page I must commend your efforts.
First of all if you want to plants the stuff you mentioned on your Post for these moulds I will advice you to either reduce them { plant yam and cocoyam} or make the moulds very big.
Cause if you plant yam, cocoyam, cassava for for one moulds it won't do very well.
I will just advice you buy the yam seedlings you can afford plant them together with cocoyam in the same mould then plant cassava separate in the remaining moulds.
You don't plant cassava when the yam hasn't started springing up, cause if you do it will disturb their growth, cause the cassava will first the yam to grow and the yam won't be able to compete with the cassava for nutrients and space.

I understand you perfectly reason i made 20 new mounds to cover up the spaces. Thanks for the heads up.

Desperation

netmillionaires:
Hope your over in and out of the property else you will have to be moving the blocks often

No car entry or exit in the compound this year. Mostly pedestrian, bike or keke and the stones don't affect that in anyway.

Rubyjade:

Invest in my farm and i swear you won't regret it.

Check out my farming thread that made the frontpage yesterday

Bankowner:
Pretty much what you consume back in Nigeria.
There are African foods here.

Mostly GMO bro, Google GMO and get a glimpse of what it means

netmillionaires:
Extend the cemented part under the gate to both ends. It will take care of the others except the cats

Thanks bro, but I've already used some blocks lying around the compound to cover it this evening.

RIP

netmillionaires:
Which kind of strayed animals?

Goats, chickens, dogs, cats, etc

Cassava sticks planting ongoing

Cutting ongoing

Cassava sticks ready for cutting

netmillionaires:
Strayed animals used to come before until I fixed a gate on the property. The first were four silly goats and then the notorious herders.

He cut enough maize to feed himself for the day.

Damn , I can only Imagine the incurring losses. Sorry bro

My compound has a gate that's always on lock and keys. But there is hole under the gate where most stray animals come in from. What do you advice can be done about it?

fineboynl:
Google Abakaliki yam

Just did, but i clearly mentioned water yam in my post #no offence

Bankowner:
Na japa make me stop jare.
But I enjoyed every bit of farming at the time.

Okay so What are you consuming over there presently with the GMO craze going on.

Love800:
But people dont usually eat it cooked wholly.
They only pound it and afterwards they use it in cooking soups.

Few people eat it wholly Sir

netmillionaires:
It is fenced o. The location is Atan Otta, Ogun state. The funny thing is that I was discussing with someone about a man whose Cassava was harvested around 4:30 am one day, not knowing that they were already planning to rob me too before the next day's break. I saw the person's footprint because it rained the previous day.

Wow this is really crazy oo😧

Hope there wasn't much damages

And also, how did you deal with stray animals because that's what I'm currently facing.

Ndidi29:
How much do they sell the yam setts. They ones I see growing in that your pics there

It depends on the quantity. I bought mine for 15k.

Freshtruth:

Come invest in my farm and reap the benefits in large folds.

DaveHarry:
i eat better food then. my dad was a very good crop farmer, fisherman and hunter. we have a very big forest for agricultural activities in ekpan and okpe lga. only one of his sons followed his footsteps, now he lives rich, while people worry in anxiety.

Why didn't you follow his footsteps

Love800:
Okay.
I want to quickly ask, what is coco-yam used for?

Alot of things. For example grounded as an ingredient for different kinds of soup and can also be eaten alone cooked with palm oil etc

fineboynl:
the yams will not be harvest at once. 20 - 30 every month. From December to April. Transport matters and I have to come check things myself.

Also I thought the Abakaliki yam is the first to come out. Very big and usually July and August. And before December they will all disappeared from the market. And now you want to farm Abakaliki yam?

I don't see the problem here honestly, i can do all that for you at a very subsidized rate.

What do you mean by Abakaliki yam

GloryDome47:
Can I have your number I also want to start farming in the east

O 80 61 34 74 81

aalangel:
Well done and congratulations!

Thanks alot for the support

Love800:
All together on one mould?

Yes exactly. No problem with that or what do you think the mould is for and the expended energy used in making them?

Love800:
When you talk of investors, what do you mean?

I mean people that can invest in the business and we share the profits or a soft loan with reasonable time frame for repayment etc

Love800:
What is the difference between water yam and white yam?
And why do you prefer white yam?

Water yam is softer and lighter than white yam and has lesser starch. Also, white yam is more in demand and sweeter and more preferable for poundo and also more expensive. Apart from this, no much noticeable difference.
