PropertiesRe: My Landlord Served Me A Quit Notice And I Want To Know What What My Rights Are by zoogy2007: 1:29pm On Oct 26, 2018
Yes you have your rights about to be violated. But my question to you is, do you want to go through the legal process? It can be quite tiring. Even when it's over you will still vacate the property. I will advice you direct your time and energy towards positive things than fighting your crazy landlord in court.

You had proof that she is AS and u still listened to parties who had a lot to gain by deceiving you. Did you not have buddies and family to advice you? Why was it only the girls ppl that were advising you? Better stay in that marriage. It's for better for worse.
SportsRe: Tyson Fury Labels Anthony Joshua A Disgrace For Deciding Not To Fight Wilder by zoogy2007: 2:25am On Jul 26, 2018
I dont think Joshua should be fighting Wilder at this time. He needs to make more money for himself before he fights Wilder because a loss to Wilder (which is very possible ) will diminish his negotiating power for future fights. So the smart thing to do is to fight other heavyweights first before eventually going for the ultimate price.

AgricultureRe: Profitability Of Pig Farming In Nigeria by zoogy2007: 12:00pm On Jan 06, 2018
maxipharo:
PIG FARMING AS A LUCRATIVE BUSINESS IN NIGERIA

Pigs are kept in almost all the farms in Nigeria. It is still common to find pigs roaming freely around communities in rural areas of southern Nigeria than in the Northern parts due to religious taboo associated with pig farming. However, pig farming enterprises are also found in and around towns and cities in many areas of Nigeria, and stands a good lucrative source of income when properly managed like every other farming business.

Good pig farming in Nigeria relies on a combination of inter connected aspects such as housing, breeding and reproduction, nutrition, disease prevention & control and management; which are incorporated into intensive system of pig keeping to achieved a desirable and sustainable production. However, a blend of technical know how to make the right decisions at the right time, capital to provide improved building, feed and drugs, marketing viability to ensure that the animals have to be brought to the market when they have reached the desired weight and with optimum strategy for buying and selling of inputs (drugs, feed, farm facilities & equipment) and output (pork) with dependable sales outlet are key to sustainable income flow from pig farming.

PROFITABILITY OF PIG FARMING IN NIGERIA

NOTE: this is mainly for pig fattening aspect of pig farming.

A simple way to judge whether pig farming is profitable is by comparing the pork price (pig meat) and cost of production.

Assumptions (NB; Based on the available contemporary experience on pig farming)

• Average daily weight gain of 0.4kg
• Average daily feed consumption of 1.64kg from weaner to finisher of (50kg live weight in this case)
• Target live weight of 50kg
• Resultant pork from pig as 80% of its market weight
• Average feed price per kg of diet= #150
• Selling price per kg of pork= #1100
• Other costs(drugs and vaccine) = #1500
Hence,
• The pig would require 50÷0.4= 125 days to reach the target market weight of 50kg
• Total feed consumed throughout growth (125×1.64) = 205kg
• Total cost of feed consumed (205×150)= #30,750
Therefore Total cost of production = total cost of feed + other cost
= 30,750 + 1500
= #32,250
• Resultant pork = 80% of 50kg
= 35kg
• Cost price per kg of pork = 32,250÷ 35
= #806.25
• Selling price of pork per kg = #1,100
• Profit per kg of pork = selling price of pork per kg – cost price per kg of pork
= 1100 – 806.25
= #293.75
Therefore, you make #293.75 for every kg of pork meat!!

HOW CAN MORE PROFIT BE MADE?

While the above illustrations were ensured to be real as obtainable in pig farming. More profit can be made in the following ways:
• Ensuring improved housing to provide convenience to pigs to facilitate better growth.
• Employing good breeding practice by avoiding in breeding and ensuring selection of best animals in the herd for breeding
• Provision of good and well balance feed to your stock to ensure availability of nutrients for fast growth.
• Ensure a good disease control measure, to reduce cost through reduced medication (drugs) and to facilitate the animal’s utilization of nutrients for growth.
• Push to expand production, so as to enjoy more flexibility with economics of scale for production at lesser cost.

Nice, but there are a lot of hidden costs that you failed to highlight. You only talked about food and drugs. What about labor, transport and other infrastructural costs? Please guide the newcomers well in your posts. We do not want to be misleading young entrepreneurs.
