₦airaland Forum

globatop:
@Valarinz;
The location is not as important as the sector of agric, like animal farming and plantations.

If u are able to create it just educate members on how to join whichever group, God bless.

Ok, I specialize in poultry farming so I've already created a group on that, interested members should contact me on 08032897486 to add them up. Thanks
Note : 08032897486(text,calls.or whatsapp)

globatop:
The iniative of the op is quite laudable, a directory of farmers has been created, but we can move a step closer to each other if farmers group can be created on whatsapp or bbm group. Whoever knows how could crate the group while others join. Just an idea.

I must commend everyone for a good job on this forum, God bless all.

Nice idea, I believe this will result also in prompt sharing of info and networking.
I for one, can create a whatsapp group and add anyone Interested, but should we make it a general group, or should it be based on location?

omejeo:
pls oga grownaira my 4wks broiler their stool is blood what wil do to them thanks. they dont eat and they are week

clear case of coccidiosis here, treat with pantacox or amprolium or any other good anti-coccidiostat you can find in your area. also include vitamins and Dont forget to change their litter

NB: major likely cause is wet litter, avoid that and make sure your birds are well fed because poorly fed birds are more susceptible. thanks

templegate:
Any size from 50 birds is big enough for us. We are interested in Layers & Broilers.
Pls give your farm address.

Along Jikwoyi/karshi expressway, Azhata(just after Kurudu)

I'm a poultry farmer based in Abuja too but I Dont know what your definition of "large" would be, anyways you can reach me on 234 814 671 2421

Left the biz, thanks

I guess the socio-psychological revolution will require that we use what we have to correct the trend. Since more and more people are going online today. Nairaland has become a huge chat room, sort-of.
Most Nigerian youngsters have no idea that things can be done better organized and with them in mind. Its a Jungle out here for all from their view. They have never seen things done differently and cant see anyone really trying to do it anyway, so...what do you expect. There is a great impact on our minds from what we see especially for youths still learning to live life from what they see on the streets, on the school campuses, on TV and the use of language. Using the same forum like Nairaland might be a way to send the message and try to change the orientation.

So true, we can try, and even this thread and discourse gives me joy and hope, at least to find out that there are still people out there who have what it takes to try to make our society a better one

Just one thread which I've bumped into on Nairaland on my quest for knowledge when I wanted to open a poultry farm have lived up to my expectations,
https://www.nairaland.com/640716/starting-poultry-farm-blog

the thread has been a reservoir of experiences and information, its a daily contribution of poultry farmers' experiences and possible solutions proffered by anyone knowledgeable enough

More of this type of thread is what I expect to dominate Nairaland but the reverse seems to be the case, the mods seems to also fuel the sour trend(of promoting tribal/bigotry and celebrity gossip) cos it seems to drive the needed traffic for their gains, imagine always logging in to Nairaland on a daily basis to be greeted with topics about what tonto dikeh wore in her bathroom

You find this attitude on business, technology and other positive/ educational threads. Then they become full of abusive wreck-less comments that don't further the discussion.

My brother, its so painful to me that words can't explain how I feel at times, I joined Nairaland as far back as 2008 all in the hope of hooking up with my fellow young minds and sharing information and/or experiences that will bring about positive impact on our lives and hustles(not discounting a little entertainment every now and then), but its been such a disappointment.

And it seems as the years go down, it gets worse and that's where my real worry for this country stems.

REASON WHY NIGERIA IS STILL WHERE WE ARE:

Look at a thread like this, despite being on the front page for a while now, haven't gone past the second page, despite Nairaland users consisting of at least 80% youths

Now compare this with threads that have to do with celebrity gossip or tribal/bigotry rants and we would be at the tenth page in the least now

Zero interest on matters that have to do with hard work and entrepreneurship, but we all want good things to come our way and we'll live like kings, and if GEJ can't make us rich men overnight we 'vote' him out and bring in GMB(messiah/miracle worker), and quote me on this: in four years time when its apparent GMB isn't going to make them rich men overnight, they'll 'vote' him out and bring in another Messiah/miracle worker

Its so embarrassing to the point of excruciating pain, how lazy and unenterprising Nigerian youths are and yet we hope to be a better country in the future?

hello house,

a friend said he scanned his vehicle and got the following codes

TCM 0 00B SHIFT SOLENOID SL HYDRAULIC FAULT
ECM O 9400 BRAKE PEDAL POSITION SIGNAL SENSOR

please, is there anyone who can help explain what the above code implies for his vehicle, the vehicle is a Volvo s80

Thanks

I tire o, some of the wounded ones are most unlikely to make it sef, I wonder who buhari will now rule if we all die like this

One buhari/APC supporter has been confirmed dead from a motorbike accident at Nyanya, Abuja while performing celebratory stunts with motorcycles, others injured.

Globaby01:
@ farmtech, please help me my broilers are all sick, i have tried all i know and now i dont know what else to do because they are dying in droves, they will be 8 weeks on monday and they did not grow for easter at all and i cant dispose them cos they aren't big and no one will want them. help me please

Sorry for your loss, birds usually perform bad during heat season as we currently have, but there could still be a combination of factors leading to your birds poor performance. You could post pics or more details of their droppings colour and their weight and how much much feed you serve them and at which time of the day.

if its too cumbersome you can call me on 08146712421. thanks

my vehicle also had the same overheating issue as a result of faulty thermostat, and my mechanic replaced it with something they called "relay", which makes the fan turn on when the vehicle is started. Is this the same thing you guys are warning against pls.

Thanks

GAZZUZZ:
Return your fan connections to normal, problem solved.

sorry bro, didn't quite get your question, now I understand the question and the answer is that the fan doesn't start immediately I start the car, it actually takes a while, does that make any difference

thanks

GAZZUZZ:
Type of vehicle? Are you fans connected to work immediately the ignition is switched on?

its a 2002 Volvo v70 and the fans work when the vehicle is switched on

that's too bad now, I also wonder if theres actually ever going time be a solution to this mess. All countries(except Saudi arabia-understandably), who have at least 30% muslim population is dealing with one form of insurgency/terrorism or the other, wonder if this will just be a part of our existence from now on,

for all of you shouting "vote GMB to end insurgency", I hope buhari wins and we'll have this discussion again, a year from now, perhaps then it will be a more constructive discussion

Hello house,

Sometimes my car engine doesn't totally go off even when I've out it off and removed the keys and even locked the car, you still hear the engine whirring for some minutes before it finally dies down.

Is there anyone with an explanation to this and is it a cause for worry.

Thanks

Ricmayak1:
many thing can cause the problem. I don't know where to start from. Fuel pump.... fuel Pressure regulator. .... fuel line leakage...... over retarded timing..... crankshaft position sensor..... wrong operating temp (bad coolant temperature sensor, thermostat, bad fan operation. ...).... air leaks..... MAF and/or MAP sensor...... faulty or blocked injector nozzles. ..... misfire due to faulty ignition cable/coil/spark plug.....bad EGR.....faulty valves....... engine with bad compression.... fouled engine oil...... engine running rich (bad operating temp, FPR, leaky injector, bad CTS e.t.c) and others........

If you have the minor things checked and they are okay, it's likely your throttle position sensor from your description of poor acceleration and AC dragging down engine power.
BR.

Thanks a lot

Bros, which area of Abuja are u located and what will it cost me to scan. Thanks

chillex8:
Na last card be this ooo.

How do U mean??

GAZZUZZ:
Vehicle repair history?

Have you worke on any of these of recent

Fuel pump
Timing belt
Transmission repair

Won't say I know much about that cos I just bought the car from someone , maybe I'll try to ask him

Hello

My 2002 Volvo v70 automatic has some issues:

Hard starting:, it takes two times to get the car started, and sometimes when the engine is hot this doesn't happen

Slow acceleration: it takes time for the car to get going despite pressing hard on the pedal, and when it picks finally and struggles through the first and second gear, the movement becomes smoother

Hard to pick up while using ac: when the ac is on, the car seems heavier for the engine and accelerates more slowly

Please oga GAZZUZZ, any ideas on what might be the issue

Bros, how this car take be tokunbo na, haba

johnson33:
what do you mean by state number

Like 'Anambra' plate number or 'Nassarawa' plate number , not 'Abuja' or 'Lagos'

johnson33:
35k sir

35k, even for state number?
