Last year I got 10 acres for cultivation and planned getting more for successive planting. I wasted funds in clearing, land preparation, transplanting and was only able to cultivate 2 acres successfully because workers dealt with me. I learnt my lessons and decided to downsize to 3 acres this year.
You will always meet online farmers that exaggerate things just to lure newbies for consultancy.

Bros
Money belongs to you;
Land belongs to you;
Head belongs to you;
Heart belongs to you.

Go ahead with your plans. If the project becomes successful, good for you but if things go bad, you'll face the headache and heartache alone. Just because we are straightforward with our practices and results doesn't mean we are paupers.

What I am saying is that there many farms that are not more than 5years and they own like 2 hilux few farm trucks….. why is it that we have trend of 3 years on nairaland and all I could see is 2plot of tomatoes on the same trend since 3years…. Is it that it not profitable or when them scale up they stop coming to nairaland? In fact my father gave some some land to cultivate tomatoes last year… they have expanded this year to a bigger space if I give those women 3years they will cultivate up 10acares soon… why is there no development in a trend of over 5yrs it still same 3plot of tomatoes or cucumbers or pepper

I am really confused about nairaland is it only people that have few hundred thousand that are here because I no understand ooo… I know few farms that cultivate different crops on like 30 to 50 acres and they started with 20 And they’re successful now… they own personal cars. The only thing I see on nairaland is 2plot success of tomatoes or cucumber, 2acres failure of tomatoes…. Nah only 2-3plot una Dey get success for here? Must I start from 2 plots? What if I have like 10 - 20 million to start a agribusiness where I am gonna have agronomists- marketers-contracted laborers-security…. I go con carry 20million for hand con go Dey cultivate 2plots? I have never see a successful 5 acres of tomatoes farm here but I know some and have even see some on Facebook… nah only newbies Dey here? Abi nah fund issue?

1. Do you have the experience and tenacity to run 3 acres effectively?
2. It will be too risky to set up 3 acres in batches. Losses will be higher if production or the market messes up. Not even Mile 12 market will bail you out.

I'll suggest you start small, learn the ropes, and upscale gradually. There's a reason most of us here are operating an acre or less at a time. It doesn't mean we are not interested in the revenue, overwhelming ourselves with too much is just not worth it.

We are planning on employing an agronomists and marketers that will deal with agents in all major markets in Nigeria.. what do you think

Hello guys if a set my farm in a way that I have 3 acres for sell every months is there market for it… like will I be able to sell them easily?
