Kazikazi:
Do you have any smelters over there?

Yes, there is Goverment owned called Gold coast refinery.

theenchanter:
There are more than two Guineas in Africa, West africa has two.

Learn, dummy..... learn!!

dundee, evidence is not close to you. Only two guineas of a country exist in west.Africa. so which one has more bauxite deposite.

tylann:
That is good for Ghana
Kenya manufacturing sector is in shambles
In fact it was better ten years ago than now

Ghana isn't also impressive either. We need a massive development in this sector

Kazikazi:
Are you saying you don't allow small miners in mining?

Goverment is heavily climbing on them but thy still do it illegally. Small miners must have a Goverment permission

theenchanter:
the uppity in u is far above the ones in nigerians and saffers on this thread!!

Guinea has the largest bauxite deposit in africa, guinea is a west african country.

i think the price of fuel have affected the functionality of your brain, the more the scarce, the more you have it difficult to refuel.

There are two guinea in Africa and one of them is not located in west Africa.

Kazikazi:
Yes TZ has similar problems. We are busy fighting with mining companies because of that.Just imagine,we don't have a real industrial smelter in our country, yet we have almost all kinds of minerals! Although we are in process of building one, it seems like we slept for too long.

Ghana is also fighting with illegal miners. They are known as galamsey.


Ghana got bauxite (The largest in West africa) and lithium in a very large quantity too which Will soon replace oil as the move to green energy continue , electric cars are heavily depend on them . But goverment are more interested in Gold and cocoa.

African leader are not risk averse

tylann:
I think only Ethiopia is taking manufacturing seriously in this continent they are inaugurating industrial parks almost monthly

That is good for Ethiopia. Something we should all emulate. Ghana have signed more than four car assembly plant just early of this year. One from inida and another from japan. Just of recent Toyata enter into partnership with university of Ghana to establish 1 million dollar ultra modern fercility to boost the techinical performance of the engineering student. This are still small but it is a starting point.

Kazikazi:
I get you. Its still strange that in most of our African nations,we export raw stuffs to SA and import drinks and little things which we are capable of manufacturing. Things need to change. Do you have any plans to halt exportation of raw cocoa?

plans are underway. They are chocolate industry in Ghana. They are spreading very fast and more of it are coming up every day. Exporting raw product is an African problem and that does not take away Tanzania from the same problem

XhosaNostra:
It's true about beer though. Here we call it a "beer boep" because most people who drink beer have potbellies
Try cutting down if you want washboard abs or stick to vino

lolll...vino, that sound cool

Kazikazi:
Thanks for explanations. So what are you exporting to SA?

Raw Gold and chocolate beans . They are south africa gold company in Ghana, south africa is about to established an oil refinary in Ghana as well

XhosaNostra:
@bolded, stout? Ewww lol.

Oh, I see. Wine is good. Never been a fan of reds though, especially merlot. Tastes "vomitey" to me :

So you mostly drink beer? What about spirits? I used to love something called Grappa, it's of Italian origin.

really, i love beer, people have been saying it is adding to my weight though i haven't find a scienctifc answer to support such claim

Spirit is good but i occasionally go for it unless i am in the midst of friends. Spirit if not careful may disgrace you too quickly

Try wine today, and increase your lifespan lol.

Kazikazi:
But why do u import it from SA?

so Ireland can't import Germany beer. amarula is even imported to Ghana. Ghana and south africa are into open buisness, free visa to both country and they just recently sign an agreement on import and export transparency.

XhosaNostra:
Yeah, that's true. For me all it takes is one glass & I'm done for What I like about it is, it doesn't make you take frequent trips to the toilet, the way other drinks do. Only a small amount & you'll be feeling phly in no time

What do you usually drink?

on an averaged day, i will go for Guiness or any dark beer. But if i am loaded with cash, i change the table to any red wine with bold taste. When i was home, i use to take long mountain. I am on budget now. Just go with beer. I will not call myself a drinker but i will not go a week without drink. A bottle of two is ok.

XhosaNostra:
Lol, it's funny because I started drinking Amarula as a child My stepfather worked at a distillery, so every December they were given 24 bottles of every alcohol produced at their plant. Amarula was one of them. He'd pour a little bit of it for me inside the lid. So yes, I like it. I'm not a drinker, but I do still drink Amarula occasionally.

whaoo. With amarula, you get drank with styles. You get buzzed not too quick. And if you eventually buzzed, you can easily get yourself back cus the drink will not make you heavy ..

It cools but i don't really like anything containing too much milk.

XhosaNostra:
Amarula is fancy obviously lol. Plus it's quite expensive.

it is girls favourite drink. Maybe because of the sugary and milky taste. Do you also like it.

XhosaNostra:
For some reason people think you're classless if you drink Savanna lol.

lol. Though, it not among the classic drink too in Ghana as well. But i will group it in the likes of the local beer like club, Guinness and co.

What about amarula?

XhosaNostra:
Lol, it doesn't have a good reputation here It's usually associated with lowlives or real drinkers who'd drink just about anything.

really, it is cider drink. Cost less than 7 cedis not up to 2 dollar 50 cent

XhosaNostra:
Panyaza

There is drink in Ghana called Savannah. I learnt is from south africa. It is refreshing.

jaycent:
Truth. As small as the country is! And they have the resources? But still yet, not developed.

Ghana isn't a small country, she is small in population compare to Nigeria but she has a huge land mass, geographically it is the only country closer to the center of the earth and almost the same in land mass with United kingdom. Nothern region of Ghana is bigger than Ekiti and bayelsa state of Nigeria combine.

The massive occupation that took place in gold cost (Ghana) didn't happen in any part of africa except south africa. The European steal and drain the country.

NIGERIA oil was discover just very close to the independence , if any country will first attain first class development in africa, it should be Nigeria
It has every potential to develop but it misplace it.

sufferNsmiling:
If you are in ghana then you are lucky. There must be dairy cattle research being done because I have heard something about it when I was in ghana. Order must be a ranches programme. Do not waste your time going to the fulanis. The breeds of cows the do and not profitable. That's why they end up destroy people's farms to feed the cows. If you do exotic breeds you can end up to $2000 and upwards each cow.

oh really, i am more familiar with what the fulani breed?

tylann:
Sometimes artificial insemination backfires
You have to make sure the cow is on heat
For it to be successful

Then i will handover everything to the expatriate to handle

sufferNsmiling:
It's no use wasting your saliva on some of these people. It's better to stick to the animal husbandry or something which we bring you money in future

interesting....

[quote author=tylann post=77322084][/quote]50 dollar to get a calf is cool

sufferNsmiling:
Not really in zim they were training people how to do it. The important thing is the sperm it has to be kept at a certain temperature. When the female cow is in heat that's when you put the sperm inside her.

The zim ones were breed for milk not for beef production right?

sufferNsmiling:
The ones which I look after in zim they were the british and the french type of dairy cows. All the farmers think they're about is more milk and more milk. So nobody bothers of doing the indigenous. The dairy cows we had did not eat much grass they use to eat maize soya beans sunflower seed with crushed dried grass then we pour molasses on top of their food so that they can eat more. We used to milk them early in the morning at 6:30 a.m. and then at 1 p.m.. each cow give about 10 litres of milk every 24 hours. The richer the feed you give them the more milk you get. But sometimes they can get nasty where do you want to put the machine on to milk them. That is when you can really get injured even after time their legs.

you really have a lot of idea.

I am really interested in the buisness.

tylann:
In Kenya only licensed personnel do it
It costs 5000kshs for the operation for high quality semen
The cost reduces with the quality of the semen

how much is that in dollars?

And about the quality of sperm, how is that determine?

tylann:
Yes you need an expatriate there are somehow expensive

really ... but those it worth doing?

jaycent:
I have forgotten the name of the university? But I will ask my sister or my brother? It's because of the university the EFCC arrested him and seized every of his property and locked him in prison!

it is good you have the information before you talk about it. Nothing of such in Ghana . ok

tylann:
My reasons are the fossil records if you study the links well you will notice the change take for example dormaaloycon the ancestor of modern day carnivores you will notice the patterns of evolution
Simple example is how we breed chicken to lay more eggs
The chicken will evolve over time to a new breed from the originally one and it will lay more eggs than the originally
Evolution demands time
I will explain more give me time

i want to hear from you before i ship in my own input.

Do you know that, the ex governor of Minna, Niger state. Dr muazu babangida aliyu built the best university in Ghana and Ghanaians claimed the university? The university brought foreigners to that country no be small

Which university is that ? The name?

sufferNsmiling:
The cheapest way is you do artificial insemination. If you want a bull brahma cow it is just too expensive from $3000 upwards. It is cheaper to buy the sperm and do artificial insemination. Also you have two choices the dairy cows versus the beef production. Dairy cows are much better because they will give you money every time. You will get milk from them which is easy to make butter or cheddar cheese

Do i need an expatriate for the artificial insemination?
