Hi guys ,

I have two 200w Csun solar panels i bought some couple of months back. I never got to use them thanks to the hike in the price of batteries and others. I would like to sell them off in order to buy batteries. Am putting them out at 55k

I would like to find out what to do in this situation. Given that the Naira is in a comma at the moment and there is every tendency for it to continue on the downward path, is there anyway to start saving in CAD now to prevent further degradation of one's savings ?

For instance
Savings => NGN 2M
USD@452 => 4,424.78
USD->CAD@1.32148 => 5,847.26
CAD@Official => 8397.41

The difference between buying from the parallel market and the official is quite high

I think this is something, a group of like minds can come together and work on. It is an opportunity that if properly harnessed will yield the good returns, however the problem of power still exist, although I think one can manage that aspect with renewable energy.
I agree renewable energy would be definitely come in handy. But I really doubt if most food processing machines would be energy efficient.

Some guys now form co operative society to do what you are suggesting. Maybe we can work on a model that will be involved in agricultural processing industry, I feel that is where people who do not want to be directly involved in agriculture can invest in. That way, the raw materials that will soon be in surplus from next year because of the number of people who have gone into farming this year can be harnessed and processed before being sold
Very true. This is quite a different perspective, going down this route would prevent wastage and ensure the farmer continues to produce. Am interested in exploring this. How do we explore this ?

jasper7:
Your submission makes sense but is a bit flawed... Individuals build institutions. If Nigerians don't invest in individuals How do you think such institutions will be established
True that individuals make up institutions

Wildcards:
You've raised some very valid points here.
However, the peculiar challenges in Agribusiness sometimes limit the extent to which certain things can be done.
That being said, you rightly mentioned that "some private individuals are doing its sort of business (it's called 'contract farming' by the way) while credibility remains an issue". There are several of them on Nairaland here, but my personal experiences with @Jasper7 means I can vouch for him anyday. Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to be throwing his contract farming schemes open to the public anymore. So maybe we can get enought people to appeal to him (and the likes of @Hotmas911, @Jethro, @world1, @Lesgupnigeria, etc both online and offline, to work together in order to create a veritable contract farming and/or investment platform for AS MANY people as are willing to participate.
Cheers!!!
Thank you for teaching me a new term. Overtime, I've learnt to always choose institutions over individuals. Generally speaking, businesses ought to outlive people. I would like to see something like a publicly traded agriculture fund where proceeds go directly into investment in farmers and agriculture. Nigeria is all about diversification theses days, however, diversification for it to happen would require some big numbers which most small farms might not be able to produce given the skill and capital requirement.

Thanks !!!
AgricultureUber's Model For Agriculture In Nigeria by xij38580(op): 3:58pm On Aug 25, 2016
One thing Uber did was to lower the cost of venturing into the taxi business lower for people. For instance before Uber arrival, an individual would need to understand how cars work, deal with drivers that won't keep to agreements on how much to deliver per week and lots of other issues. This prevented lots of people from getting involved in that sector. However, Uber came and reduced this problems by providing a convenient and transparent collection model, drive vetting process and even car loan schemes.

I would like to find out is there a model like this available for agriculture? Where all I have to do is provide the funding and the company takes care of the rest and provides me with the commission.

Am aware that there are private individuals doing this sort of business, however, credibility remains a big issue.

A business around this model is a win-win for owners of funds and farmers alike. It means more money for the farmers to expand , better food security for everyone, more employments and finally capital appreciation for fund owners.

Hi All,

I've worked in a number of places all related in the same field. However, I have my offer letters which clearly stated my position, earnings and work hours. Is this sufficient as proof of employment in those firms ? Some of the firms are no longer in existence too. Thanks

SAMUELS3:
Try to get embassy letter from the investment company the letter should be addressed to Canadian embassy. A letter will be prepared for you showing the naira value of your investment and in the currencies of the countries (pounds and dollars). I think stanbic investment charge about N2,700 for such letter, I don't know about other investment company,also add your purchase statement with the letter. Print your bank statement no matter the amount provided the money market fund can cater for your expenses and submit. My opinion though.
Success.
Thank you so much

@bjmme Thanks for the clarification. Funding my account with the investment funds makes it look like a lump sum payment, is there anything I can add to explain the source of funds ? Thanks
TravelRe: Travelling To Canada Part 10 by xij38580: 11:26am On Jun 13, 2016
Good morning,

I need some clarifications. I know as a single person when applying for a TRV am supposed to show proof of funds for a years upkeep usually $10,000. When an accompanying spouse is involved in the application does this become $20,000 ?

Also I have 90% of my funds in a money market fund. Its an habit thats been with me for some years now. Can I present this as proof of funds , since it takes 2 -3 days for the money to clear into my account.

Thanks

I use a Lenovo Laptop. It comes with an OCZ vertex 450 sata III SSD 128 GB. Everything was fine till i had to forcefully restart my pc. Now the pc doesn't boot any longer. The PC does not detect the SSD as a drive. I swapped it for another hard disk and it boots fine.

I really have some files on this SSD that I really need to salvage.

I've also tried leaving it alone for day without the battery connected to it still it doesn't show as a device .

thank you

Wikipedia

"All but five species of monitor lizard are classified by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora under Appendix II, which is loosely defined as species that are not necessarily threatened with extinction, but may become so unless trade in such species is subject to strict regulation order to avoid use incompatible with the survival of the species in the wild. The remaining five species - V. bengalensis, V. flavescens, V. griseus, V. komodoensis, and V. nebulosus - are classified under CITES Appendix I, which outlaws international commercial trade in the species.[25]"

In Tamil Nadu and all other parts of South India, catching or killing of monitor lizards is banned under the Protected Species Act.
