Starting a Poultry Farm? Things to Know!

Poultry farming in Nigeria is one of the most profitable businesses in the country, especially when properly set up.

Layers (chickens raised for eggs) and broilers (chickens raised for meat) are the two major species of
chickens farmed in the industry. However, small scale poultry farmers can rear cockerels and noilers, which are bought cheaper at a tender age.

Poultry farming is a very lucrative business and offers loads of advantages. However, no matter the aspect of poultry farming that you
choose, you must make sound administrative and financial decisions to ensure profitability.

Generally, the amount of money needed to start a poultry business is dependent on the size of the farm, and the number of chicks one wishes to start with.

Currently, the price of a day

Good morning from Labans farm in #Naivasha.

A hardworking farmer doing over 5 acres of bulb #onions. Investing in the resilience of such producers can make a long-lasting difference in our economy.

#Onions have low nutrient uptake efficiency due to their very shallow root system. This makes #fertilizer application a key component in their germination cycle. Try out the #Yara Onion nutrition program for optimal yields in your farm.

Ever taken a moment to think of how this world would look like without this innovation?
Cell phone has undergone a series of evolution ever since its innovation and fare to say, each evolution comes out with an improved future something which farmers and everyone else embraces.
The first sms was sent in 1992 by neil papwprth a developer through @VodafoneUK to richard a company Dr at a Christmas party.
The first cell phone took 10hours to fully charge and would last for 35 minutes and it costed 3995$. Remember, it weighed 1kg

N/B WHITE GRAPES ARE GREEN IN APPEARANCE

Don't plant grapes for fun, invest in it and wait for returns ๐Ÿ‡๐Ÿ‡๐Ÿ‡

Message Mynzagric on WhatsApp. wa.me/message/D53E3Kโ€ฆ
Grapes are much easier to manage and looking at how they grow and the space they occupy then clearly, you can actually intercrop them with seasonal legumes like beans...
You shouldn't intercrop them with crops that need alot of water.
Introduce intercropping between 1-2 years.

Meat Goat #farming

THREAD
The meat goat business is one area you can exploit, given the deficit in red meat supply in Kenya and globally.

MEAT BREEDS
The available indigenous breeds are the Small East African and the Galla Goat. They adapt to many climates.

#COVID19
#farmers
They also have good characteristics and are preferred for meat. Their high adaptability means they can do well in many parts of Kenya.
No particular colour defines the Small East African Goat as it comes in various shades. Bucks attain live weight of 30 to 40kgs, does 25 to 30kgs
Have slow growth and low meat production so meat is the best option. They are hardy, survive in tough environment and resistant to parasites and diseases.
Galla goats is large and mostly referred to as boran or somali breed and has subtypes of Degyir and Degeun. Docile goats.

Fundamentals of Agribusiness Ventures.

i) Agriprenuership

For any agribusiness enterprise to be established & run successfully,those starting it up & running it must have certain skills,behaviours & attitude.

โ€ขPassion
โ€ขPersistence
โ€ขBusiness intelligence
โ€ขProduct focus
Lack of these attributes leads to business failure especially during the early stages of crafting it.

#AgribusinessTalk254

ii) Have a Comprehensive Agribusiness Plan/Model

Agriprenuers fail not because they are doomed to fail but because they are undertaking so many activities some of which may not be adding value to their business.

Crops For Profitable Farming

THREAD

Thinking of farming but don't know which crop to focus on?

Many farmers get tied to nonprofitable crops with little to write home about.
Others end up doing crops that require volume to make reasonable margins.

Try the following crops๐Ÿ‘‡
Bambara Nuts (Bande, or tsibande or Njugu Mawe)
These nuts are highly nutritious and they cost a hand in the market.
Currently one tin of 2kgs is costing ksh. 1000 in most parts. 1kg at 450 to 500.
They require good farm management, weeding n covering them with soil. Yields high.
These nuts do well in most altitudes but low and medium altitudes are the best.
Read soil is the perfect for them. Plant one per hole at 10cm from hole to hole and 1F row to row. Best time is in September during short rains. Be keen with rodents. Top dress with NPK 17:17:17
