Oluwadaresam1:
100kg is #2,400

can you show a sample?

How much do you sell per 100 kg bag?

Emmafly:
Till the ground at least 1ft by 1 ft dimension and plant. That's how I plant. Also other farms around me.

can you please give us a picture of what that looks like and how do yields from such better those from beds?

Emmafly:
Dear Joseph,
From my own experience, realizing is different from profit. You can realize 50k but what about your cost. but if 50k profit is what you mean then we can talk about the plant management. Water and chemical management are one the most important factors during the dry season as there will be less humidity and more pest. if you solve this, then you can make more than that as a profit during the dry season because during the dormant months of no rain, you will still be selling and the price will be at least double high and the roads to the market will be free and dry.
Also i noticed someone's advice on making beds for ugu. this is a no brainer during the dry season, dont try it. And then if you are going to do ugu during the dry season, you need to plant between september and october for upland planting. I hope this little advice helps.

In dry season what better option to beds do you advice he uses .

Abasman008:
Am asking because am about to ask my farhef for a small place to plant ugu sees... Is too late to plant say three weeks from now and still meet up?
What's the market like?

Three weeks because I'll need to clear and prep the soil before I plant.

not at all,it is the best time but seeds are still costly

Idemujoseph:
can I have your contact sir?

I hope you saw my number before I took it down.In case you have further questions regards ugu farming you can post them here.the main inputs for ugu farming are water,fertilizer(urea and/or NPK)and chicken dropping(manure).once an adequate supply of the above are made available to your crop,you will hardly need further chemicals to combact pests or microbes as ugu is a very tough plant.

Idemujoseph:
on the average sir, how much can someone get from one plot on a monthly basis?

you can get about 20 ugu beds from a plot of land ,each going for a minimum of #5000(btw #5000 and#10000). Ugu is cut every two weeks(you must know how to cut it,else it takes longer).#5000*20*2=#200000monthly

Several factors have to be taken into consideration. First,the quality of seed,adequacy of water supply , quality of manure and fertilizer used,location of the farm and the market you are selling to,crop density,amongst other factors have to be considered. In a place like Lagos it is possible

agricexport:
for your cassava by products in small and large quantity, contact us.

It should rather be referred to as cassava products

sufficientfoods:
Please fellow nairalanders , I've got funds in the tune of 50M , 18 plots of land in the east . What agriculture/poultry product could one with such resources at his disposal delve into and will not suffer major loses . A comprehensive advice will be welcome.

Benyfil:
Thanks alot for the advice. My concern has always been; how to identify these seeds, I only trust the buyer when he/she says its a good seed etc. Most times, its not always so. Are there ways to identify them?

Generally basin and port have smaller seeds than Calabar and the two are almost of same quality. However some seed sellers select tiny Calabar seeds to mix with basin. The good bet is to buy from trusted seed sellers. A better way to differentiate amongst them is that the pod of basin are smaller and more round compared to calabar port that are bigger and more conical in shape.

Benyfil:
Hello all.
Where can I get good ugwu seeds to buy? I need about 10-20 paints

Good quality seeds are basin,port and calabar in that order. They are costly now. Basin will become cheaper between month end and mid next month.Note: itis far far better to buy costly ugu seeds than bad seeds.

revilomichaels:
It is simple.
I’ve done it before and the person actually called and begged me to unblock after sending my money back via another account but this won’t always be the case.

The in thing is that you have the capacity to block that account and any other account linked to that BVN. In fact, that person won’t be able to own a bank account anymore except it is students account that doesn’t require BVN

How can you block a SCAMMER?

Firstly, goto any police station and report your case. Pay them a tiny fee to get an affidavit from them which proves your story with your account details, day and time of transfer and the account you transferred to.

Secondly, goto your bank and report the case. When they ask for police report. Submit it to them immediately and in less than 48 hours, that account will be frozen without notification.
So when another maga pays him and he tries to withdraw, he won’t be able to withdraw money.

I’ve held one hostage for almost two years now and he’s still begging.

Learn how to use the power of BVN to scrap out local scammers in Nigeria

what a great insight!

My ugu is producing this tiny folded leaves. What's the cause and possible solution?

this could be due to white flies.make sure you water the leaves adequately apart from applying chemicals

How can one explain to a blind man the colours of the rainbow?It's impossible except one first heal such a person from his blindness.May God heal you

Moreover,the spirit of God put it in my mind sometimes ago that explaining such mysteries to non-spirit-filled people is tantamount to explaining to someone born blind,the colours of the rainbow.

DappaD:
spirit: When God's spirit descended like a dove upon Jesus, it confirmed or bore witness to Jesus being the Son of God

water: The water in which Jesus was baptized in also bore witness when Jesus was approved by his heavenly Father, Jehovah.

blood: Jesus' blood or life also bore witness to him being God's Son when he gave himself up as a ransom sacrifice when his blood was poured out.

What heresies?!So you know,if you haven't known already and striving with your maker,the spirit refers to God's spirit,the blood refers to Jesus while the water refers to the father.these are common bible symbolism that anybody with the Holy spirit inspired discernment should know.But no,to you the Holy spirit is just a force. He is rather a being just like the other two members of the Godhead who guides true believers to understand the scriptures and the mysteries of the kingdom

chatinent:
Thanks for your inputs. Let's analyze them in bits. To your first question, logically , it was to this firstborn Son that Jehovah said: “Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness.” ( Ge 1:26) ... He likely did so in Eden, for on two of the three occasions where mention is made of God’s speaking there, the record specifically shows someone was with Him, undoubtedly his Son. Who is that son? Jesus Christ (did you notice he spoke to a distinct person?)( Ge 1:26-30; 2:16, 17; 3:8-19, 22)
.
The second. Can one be with someone and at the same time be that person? At John 17:3, Jesus addresses the Father as “the only true God.”

First can you please tell us your own definition of God? In thesame way you call the child of a cow ,a cow also the son of God is God.secondly,to your second rebuttal,if God can be present in heaven and the same time be present on earth(He is omnipresent),and also present in every part of the universe then it should not strech your imagination the he can be present in three form that make the Godhead.moreover,1Coirinthians2vs14puts it succinctly,"but the natural man receiveth not the things of the spirit of God:for they are foolishness unto him:neither can he know them,because they are spiritually discerned.

DappaD:
Spurious addition to the original Scriptures done by your overzealous trinitarian brothers who produced the KJV translation.

The actual words at 1John 5:7-8 are:
“For there are three witness bearers: the spirit and the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement”

what does the spirit,the water and the blood mean to you?

pongwa:
it's clear you do not understand the concept of Trinity. Nonetheless, you kept reiterating the fact that God is one which I quite agree with. Now think of Trinity as an egg. You will agree with me that the egg has three 'distinct' parts comprising
1) egg yolk,
2) egg white and
3) egg shell.
The point to note is that although the parts are distinct and can exist in isolation, in reality, what makes it an egg is because of the three parts occuring together. Now see the egg shell, egg yolk and egg white as God the Father, God the son and God the Holy Spirit.
Q.E.D

Similarly,since man who was made in the likeness of God has spirit, soul and body(three in one),God also exist in three form,father,son and the Holy spirit.

Also follow that up with 1John 5vs7(For there are three that bear record in heaven,the Father,the Word,and the Holy Ghost:and these three are one.)

Can you explain Genesis1vs26(And God said"let us make man in our image,after our likeness..."to us?Who was God speaking with?Also explain John 1vs1(In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God)which will clarify your confusion and indoctrination,if you are actually trying to seek God out of an open heart.

Please note: Counter terrorist police (CTU) they are also called Military police. Military police are specially trained like army. POLICE WITH RED CAP. they are even more active than some army.

That is not true. They are of the NPF not MP.

GoddyOra:
Then purchasing dollar at the current black market rate @#450-460 is not gonna be a bad investment since nigeria recession equates further naira devaluation??
Any economist in the house should help me out here on this subject.

recession does not necessarily lead to currency devaluation. Other factors have to be considered.

matrix199:
Question 2 is nt explicit enough. Let me use my discretion. The sum of two perfect squares i can make out from 5, 3, 7, 4, either by adding two or more figures together. It implies, 5 + 4 = 9( a perfect square of 3), and 5 + 4 + 7 = 16( a perfect square of 4), => 9 + 16 = 25. But then, figure '4' among those figures is a perfect square. But there is no other perfect square among the figures to sum up with 4, thus my take or reason for adding up figures to get two perfect squares from the figures given.

1 is also a perfect square

The first two perfect squares are 1 and 4.
1+4=5

Thetechhub:
Good evening everyone. Please is there anywhere around lagos where someone can train chickens and birds. Something like renting a space. I heard there's a place reserved for training of pigs in Lagos that people can go and rent a space, I don't know if there's any for chicken.
I really want to go into farming but space is my major challenge.
Thanks for your contributions
