Sp33i:



Yes we all know by looking at the land. But the lands in Ogbomoso in Oyo state completely ruined this sensing for me. I rented 50 acres, lo and behold it was good. But when it was season for farming, the land became rain water meet rain water. I embarked on 20 acres, i didnt take out 50 Naira from that project. I left in tears and tatters

So terrible.😢

Sp33i:



Yearly rentals. No need for agreements. Even renting new spaces within two weeks

I look at lands before acquiring. If the area is fertile,I will know . I would like to do both maize and cassava at a go.

Day dreaming 😴

Sp33i:



I will use that funds to farm ten acres amd make ten times what the produce on pwned land would give me. I checked the maths before taking off. Why do i need to buy land when i have access to over 500 acres leasable lands ?

I understand your point. Is the rent for a year or how many years?

Also,I hope a formal agreement was signed ?

1stDoggystyle:
Plan A has failed
Plan B didnt work out
Plan C appears too risky and less appealing

Plan D is not guaranteed because its expensive to achieve and takes alot of time

What’s the issue?

You mean investments?

Sp33i:



I rented the lands

Oh ,okay. I would prefer buying outrightly.

HBD to papa

It’s not always sweet on the other side

Happy Mubarak To You all

BewareOf419:
My fellow brothers and sisters in Islam, the demand for rams, cows, etc for this year Eid al-Adha dropped drastically. What could be the cause?

Despite the price drops of rams,people still couldn’t afford it.

Happy Mubarak To all the Muslims

Let the security architecture of the university be revamped. They should have military personnel,police and the local vigilante working at the sch premises and environs.

He is still a suspect as mentioned above

Until I recover from my sudden financial upturn as a result of your policies,I won’t praise you. Until,all what I’ve been lost to inflation is recovered in same govt,I won’t worship you PBAT.

Please help

Don’t use Camry ,you guys won’t hear word. No matter what you change in the car,that’s how the car was designed to function except you want to alter its functionality.

Sell off and get a fuel efficient car.🚘

Sp33i:
One thing I always do is take good look at the soil in any lands i want to rent. Some times, soil tests is preferred. This is because some soils have become too weak for agro production.


Always make sure by examining the land before you pay. You can also take a look at crops cultivated around your intended farm to get clues about the soil health

Sorry, I just wanted to clarify. You rented the land and not buying it outrightly ?

Sp33i:




Spent well over 1.5 Mil. Livelihood. Some days i pay up to 25-30k on labour and expenses.

The logistics and cost of operations it eh problem running businesses now. On some days, i spend 10k on bike alone

I know about this cos I have been there before and I am still there

Sp33i:




That is why i continue setting up farms nonstop. To overcome the expenses. The daily bike fare is crazy. Spending averagely 8-10k on a single day on logistics is not a joke



Personal feeding expenses is there as well. I had no funds to pay labour yesterday, i was almost beaten up because they too need money as there are no jons in the rurals

Great. You are resilient.

Exactly my calculations. In any farming business you do ba,just pray to God and ask for mercy. It’s believe that we farmers will always get *3 of what we invested but in reality,the postulations are not always true. But let put our hope in God.

See,I had to plant 🫘 and cassava ,making it multi cropping and it’s paying me off. I am harvesting the 🫘 now,maize is matured already but I am leaving it to dry off. After the harvest,the cassava will carry on and a stand of cassava sells at #300.

Alusiizizi:


All he did was rent the tractor though, and it was about 15k.

He has spent close to a million in that farm,take it or leave it.

Alusiizizi:


I think that he mentioned something like 20k to rent the tractor and maybe another 15k for plowing, I'll have to go over the OP again, but at any rate, a quick eyeballing of the figures worked out to around the neighborhood of 150k. With regards to the fueling of his okada, it's hard to imagine the kind of errands that he needs to run that would see him spend his future 500k(that's assuming that the investment is like 300k and not my initial 150k estimate) in a 3 month window. Even commercial okada riders don't spend nearly that much.

lol. Insecticides are costly. Ferlizer is around 35k /50kgbag and he needs nothing less than 20 bags in that farm. The list he can use is combat insecticides for killing captapilars and army worms🐛 which cost over 6k each. He is going to be buying cartons of all this and not pieces.

Alusiizizi:


Not terribly sure what the advantage of dry sale over wet sale is. I can only assume that dry corn seeds are easier to process. At any rate, let's even assume that we double my initial estimate on initial investment to make it 300k(a comically large estimate if I might add), that's still some 500k in profits in 3 months. If he was sitting on 12 hectares then that would make it a cool million in 3 months for just 600k investment(even more comical because the initial investment will surely reduce with increased area

The one thing that I can't get my head around is why any farmer would want to be selling unprocessed corn when he could make like 10 times more by going vertical, i.e. processing the corn into food-stuff, like semovita, corn-meal, akamu and so many other food products.

There are thousands of dry maize buyers . The problem is ,not everyone can process or have the machinery to produce farm produce to finish products. We only get direct buyers for our products .

Alusiizizi:


Thought it was 2 months. Then again, I did make it know that I was no farmer. Regarding the seeds, I think he was referring to 15k for all six hectares.

Cost of tractor isn’t there. His personal expenses like fueling his bike daily isn’t there too.

Alusiizizi:


1k per 12 cobs?? That's even better than my conservative estimate. OP mentioned that his goal was 10,000 cobs of corn by harvest and a rough calculation of the required overhead plus some wiggle-room worked out to about 150,000 Naira, maximum. With your 12 cobs for 1k, the total price for the whole lot is about 800K, that means about 650k over maybe a month or two of corn cultivation. Pretty good returns if you ask me, but then again, I'm not a farmer so I could very well be wrong.

In my 3 plots ,I have over 4k stands of maize atm and he should have more but that’s not the issue. Let him sell dry to make max profits

You didn’t go the what he typed. Go again through his revelations

safarifarms:

How will you get your corn to be properly dried during this rainy season?

There is sun and there will always be in some days interval. Not everyday rain falls.

Maize farming is 3 months. Cost of buying the seeds,cost of 6 acres(15k*6),cost of fertilizers,cost of workers,cost of insecticides etc

RIP to him
