A 100 pig unit composed mostly of grown pigs will generate enough fresh waste on a daily basis to power a 2.2kva gen set for about 1 and half hours to 2 hours each day. The biodigester will cost around #130,000 to set up.
Thanks. Do you have a funtional one on your farm that i can come to see how it works and do you do the construction? what type of Biodigester are you having in mind?

The only permit u nned is the dpr permit, the cost for anywhere in Nigeria is now 3million
What are the conditions for granting the permit apart from the N3m? I think it's better to get permit first before getting the gas plant itself.

The land I have is in a residential area with houses on both sides. So i dont know if DPR can approve of it.

With due respect to the moderator of this section, i hope this is the right section to post this very useful material. Over the past three years, research has been ongoing on how to harness the power of BIOGAS. The past few weeks have been difficult for some people because of the ARTIFICIAL fuel scarcity being encountered in our dear country. Aside from the fact that PMS is scarce, kerosene is way on the high side too.

In view of this, i have decided to take any person who might be interested in generating his/her (Cooking/Electricity) energy @ home by the hand on how to construct a 500L BIOGAS TANK for domestic consumption ONLY.

This lesson is made possible by my teacher in BIOGAS TECHNOLOGY, MR J. Antoni Raj. (Rtd) Civil Engineer, Uthamapalayam and Dr. S Ajmal Khan, M.sc, P.hd, Professor- Emeritus, Centre of Advanced Study in Marine Biology, Annamalal University, Paranglpettai, India.

All lectures will be supported with pictures. I need 10 nairalanders to indicate interest before i proceed. PLS DON'T DROP YOUR EMAILS.

Visit www.biogasindex..com.ng for further infomation.
Wao!!! This is what I have been looking for, for years gotten on a platter of Gold.
Dexpro, you have done a great favour to so many people free!!!

I am seriously interested and I have gone through the whole lectures as well as the questions and answers.
I have sent you a mail earlier today 31st March 2017 requesting you to let me know what it will cost to construct one for me.

I don't mind if I can equally get on the job training while you are doing the construction in my house too.

I am waiting for your response to my mail

Thanks and God bless you.

BusinessRe: Make 2k DAILY Selling BIOGAS by TONY56: 10:47am On Mar 31, 2017
Dexpro:
Yea, well spoken. But the issue is we have seven types of BIOGAS plants. It all depends on the you want constructed for you. If you want the one depicted on my tutorial, then we start costing from basic things like the GP tanks.
I just stumbled on this thread and I am delighted. I am a prospective Pig farmer with my Pig farm under construction. For a start, I am thinking of a 100 pig farm and i am worried about the disposal of their dung.

I am therefore interested in having a Bio gas plant on the farm. The Bio gas plant is expected to be able to power a 2.2kva Generator, that will provide electricity, to a 1hp submersible water pump for 2hrs, power a small freezer for at least 12hrs, a 3/4hp A/c for at least 4hrs, lightings and electronics for a one-bedroom flat farm house & cooking.

Kindly let me know what it will cost for you to install. I can be reached on 07038569000

For all the farmers with pig waste disposal issues, bio digester is your viaible long term solution.
Even if you don't make use of the biogas, a biodigester will drastically reduce odour from your farm by degrading your pig manure into odourless substances.
TONY56:
How much will it cost to build one for a pig farm of 100 pigs. The Bio digester plant should be able to also provide gas to power a 2.2kva Generator to be used to pump water as well as provide electricity for a one-bedroom farm house and cooking

Hi. In oke-aro, a room dat can take 50 animals rents for around 6000 per month; for 100 animals, u will need 2 rooms.
Brewery spent grains is sold in cement bags, 200 per bag. Aside dat u have to buy a truck load and dats killing.
Cassava mash aka paki is sold @ d rate of 250 per bag; one bag equals 2 20ltr paint buckets. Also it isnt sold in tonnes. A busload costs 18k. Shongi costs around 300 per bag.

Do you have any other questions on oke-aro tins?? Note that you need to be careful in oke-aro esp with attendants.
Hmmmm
50 animals of which size, age or kg? And what's the size of each room? The investor should also be mindful of the fact that he should also get extra rooms ready cause the space would definitely become too small or overcrowded in about 3 months or there about and at that time, he may not be able to get more to rent expecially close to the existing ones and he may consequently be forced to sell some at give away prices.

It's better to pls elaborate on why it's necessary to "be careful in oke-aro especially with attendants". By so doing, you will be doing the prospective investors there and elsewhere a lot of good. Pls share your experiences on the antecedents of the attendants with members on the forum to avoid falling prey to them.

lekefem:
Thank you @femu. Any ideas about the current cost of Spent Brewers Grain and Cassava Marsh? Anyone with an idea of the current cost of renting a 50 -100 capacity Pen at Okearo Pig Farm?
When you talk about cost of renting a 50-100 capacity Pen, to me, it's sounds vague in the sense that it depends on the numbers of pigs you intend to house in a single room and their age or kg.
Normally, they are not supposed to be over crowded. So whatever cost anyone gives you should be based on the size of each of the room in the Pig pen because some people house about 10 pigs in a 10 X 10ft room, while some prefer only 5 in same size of room and others crowd even 20 in same size of Room and of cause other factors like age, kg, breeding, farrowing, etc come into play too.
If you have more than a Boar for example you can't house them together in same room except you want a "fight to finish" and you can't also house a boar and a sow together except when you want to cross or mate them and in which case they have to be separated after crossing.

Good morning people. I am into pig farming but i have this consistent issue which even with much research has yieled no result. That is waste disposal for the pig farm. i have some questions to ask, please share your ideas thanks.

1. What is the best practice for waste disposal in a pig farm?
2. How do you manitain low odor form the waste?
3. What tools can you use for large waste quantity removal?
[
The only viable solution is the conversion of the waste to Bio gas for cooking; Electricity generation to pump water and produce electric power in the farm as well ferterlizer.
In that way, your waste or dung is constantly taken care of.

[quote author=dejia post=39566278]Hello Fellow Farmers/ Potential Farmers,


This month ( October) was so fast! i will try and write a few advice for those looking into " our industry".

I promised to write about Management and the Nigerian factor

** Management: uhmm.. like i have written in some of my previous posts, We have 3 major factors to succeed in Piggery, they are

1) The Breed ( Genetics)

2) Feed

3) Management


Management for me is the biggest among the 3 factors, alot of us think Labour is cheap, "why do i have to automate,

Nigeria is a country, where the minimum wage is N18,000; so why do i have to spend so much money on automation? I will

rather employ someone to do the job than spend alot of money ( drinking nipples, slated floors,farrowing crates)"..

Labour in Nigeria is inefficient, unreliable, scarce and one of the biggest challenges most farmers in Africa .

In Nigeria its worse, in my 3years as a pig farmer, i have lost count of how many farm workers i have employed, i have tried, Togolese, Benue, Igbo, Yoruba

Tiv, Nassawa boys etc... Most of them work when you are there, they work when they want to and dont follow instructions.

They also dont come cheap.this is a major factor constraint in our industry. Pigs have specific time they need to be fed, to convert it ultimately

; i love to compare pigs with human beings, what is the point, when instead of you giving a child food 3 times a day,

you put his breakfast and lunch in the microwave and at night, you give him the 3 meals.. will that child be as healthy as

a child given his 3 meals has at when due?


** Skilled Labour: Well, am sorry to say,.. the graduates coming out of Nigerian Universities these days are something else..

I have employed Master degree holders, who will cross their legs and do nothing and cant even keep farm records. some cant use Ms.excel

I have employed a Vet Doctor, who couldnt diffreniate between a castrate Male pig from an uncastrate pig.

You have so many people claiming to be vet doctors who cant inject correctly, who cant read pig behaviours;

There are quacks who claim to be vet doctors. all these are big issues that have to be considered before setting up a piggery..

For alot of farmers or people looking at farming " inabsential " ( you are abroad, and you are looking into having a farm

in nigeria or you are working and want to have it as a side business). This is a big factor that i will recommend

you take time to look carefully.


The Nigerian Factor:

There are stories of farm manager making substandard feed, we have cases of feedmillers cheating the farmer etc.selling unpalatable feed

Most successful farms in Nigeria, now hire expartriates from China, India and SA, not because they know the job better

maybe because they dont understand what is called " Nigerian factor"

I can write a book on Management issues especially on Nigerian factor, i will advice that people going into piggery should

look into ways to reduce it; it is believed you cant eradicate it completely, you can only reduce it.

Also I will advice people looking into piggery to try and automate as many things as they can. Network with

people who have experience, get consultants who have experience to consult for you. You also need to do alot of Research, read books,

there are thousands of materials all over the internet on piggery, some are not applicable in Nigeria, some are relevant while others are not.

*** Farm Record:

Alot of young people ( including myself) are into farming, but most of us are still doing it the old way, the way the

illerates do it, i have visited alot of farms in Nigeria, and they cant tell me, how much feed their pigs eat per day or

how much it cost? Farming is all about " Input and Output" it is pure Mathematics, in Piggery, all we are doing is converting

feed to meat ( for those fattening). You have to know your cost per day, per animal .

farm record keeping is has important has the farm itself

you need to know when your pigs were born, when they are supposed to be weaned, when they attain first heat, etc.

in some countries, they monitor the cycles of their sows to know when they will be on heat.( Secret for having large

number of piglets). You need to either tag each pig or tatoo them, or have a way of identify each of your breeders stock to keep

proper record.


** Digital Scale:

You also need to have a digital scale to weigh you pigs on a regular basis to know if you are making profit or not.

Alot of farmers dont have scales, some have " hanging scales" which i think is " Barbaric " to hang a pig upside down

just to check its weight. Some sell pigs just by the way it looks (lol), this is 2015.. we need to measure correctly.

I will recommend that anyone going into piggery, should ensure that they have a digital scale to weigh their pigs regularly, to know

how to calculate its FCR ( Feed Conversion Ratio) and know if the farm was making money or running at a loss.

I hope i have been able to add another 2kobo to my previous post.


[/quote Deji, where do you know that I can get the Tip Drinkers, Digital scales and other pig farm accessories or equipments to buy at good prices?
