#WEFITWELL: I have been asked about what is most important in Commercial Rural Agribusiness. #Profitability, #HostCommunity or #Security. If you desire Success, the first thing to do is get the community buy in to your project. When they believe your Project, they will provide ImageImageImage
2. a platform 2work. They will form the foundation of security networks around your project. They will secure your project with everything & do impossible things 2keep you going before Challenges set in b'cos they will come. When that happens, profitability will naturally follow.
3. The biggest challenge is how long it will take 4D community 2be on the same wavelength with you & secure your investment enough to be profitable. That is why it is important to have a 24months headstart with Funding. This is why it is important 2not focus on profitability in
4. the first 24months. This is why any investment you are designing 4crowdfunding must look toward paying annual returns & returning capital between 3-5yrs. I'm speaking from personal experience. You must go into Commercial Rural Agribusiness with the mindset of a Tree Planter.
5. Too Many of our Commercial Farmers are not in the tree planting mode. That is why we are failing & that is why we will continue 2struggle. God will not do anything about it & Prayers will not wish this away. Every Tree you plant require time 2get ready, Usually between
6. 3-5years. When the Trees are Ready in About 5years, we can harvest the proceed for the next 10-15years. If you build a Community of Believers, you secure the hard earnings of investors that enable long term profitability and stability.

#WEFITWELL: #ROIs are a major component of all forms of commercial Agribusiness particularly when you are dealing with Investors, running a crowdfunding platform & needing 2Rraise money 2Support process operation for the longevity of project. These rates can also kill the project
2. if we are not careful & Tenaciously dedicated. There are about four type of rates. Naivety Rates, Distress Rates, Survival rates and Normalization rates. Every commercial Agribusiness project today is offering one of these four rates and it is a reality that is happening NOW!
3. #NAIVETYRATES: These are rates you offer when you new to agribusiness. You expect everything to work as you have read them on economies and business books. I was here and paid about 100% in 2017. It Will be suicidal and destructive. Those who know will not tell you, they will

#OCCUPYFARMS: Dear @MBuhari @ProfOsinbajo @cenbank et al. Nigeria is Sitting on a Time Bomb That is Likely Going to Consume Any Form of Progress Made if we are not Proactive When it Comes to This Herders Farmers Conflict That is Now Snowballing Into a Full Blown Ethnic Crisis.
2. Times are Hard, YES. However, What Govt is Capable of Doing is only Limited by What Govt is Capable of Thinking Backed By The Political Will. The North of Nigeria Holds the Key 2Massive Rural Industrial Revolution Capable of Changing Our National Narrative. Northern Nigeria
3. Have The Land and The The Population to Match. With The Will, There is Nothing We Will Not Achieve, If we are Ready to Drastically Reduce This Continuing Conflict Between Crop Farmers & Cattle Farmers. The Easy Road to Success Never Last. The Easy Option of Herders Heading

#RUGA: One of the Biggest Challenge of Discussing Solutions to the Nigeria National Question as it Relates to Agriculture Particularly with Animal Husbandry is That Those with No Idea or only Sentimental Ideal of How the Problem of Herdsmen Can Be Solved are The Most Vocal.
2. There are no Silver Bullet to Solving the Continuing Farmers Herders Challenge That Has now Morphed into Armed Robbery, Banditry, Kidnappings and Violent Communal Clashes Without Looking at Solving Foundational Challenges. @NGFarmersGroup Developed a Model That Will Work Short
3. Term and Create the Platform for Medium to Long Term Stability.

Firstly, Believing That Herders Can Ranch Their Cattle and Make Money Without Open Grazing in Nigeria is Ignorance. Ranching Globally is Heavily Subsidized. The Herders in Nigeria are the Most Ignored When it

#OCCUPYFARMS: The Streets of Warri is Loaded With Very Young Men, Doing Nothing But Wasting Away. I camped at Agbarho & It Was a Scene That Greeted Me Daily. Plus The Over 50Girls Probably Below 20years Old Looking For Who 2Take Them 4D Night at a Price of Between N5k to N20k. Image
2. I Saw The Future of the Niger Delta Right There and It Was a Horrible Feeling. Those Boys Will Become Armed Robbers, Bandits, Kidnappers & Violent Extremists Tomorrow. Those Girls Will Hardly Be Able 2Become Better Mothers Tomorrow as They Have Giving Birth at an Alarming
3. Rates and Dumping The Kids With Their Parents and Grandparents in the Villages. The Violent Future of The Niger Delta and Nigeria is Right in Our Faces. Every State Can Begin Now to Correct The Insanity of Yesterday, The Wastefulness of Today to Ensure We Don't Become Meal

#OCCUPYFARMS: The Challenges of Farming are Well Documented Particularly in 2020. You Don't Have 2B A Rocket Scientist 2Know That if you Want 2Build in Agribusiness That Last, You Must Build Rural Infrastructure That States & LGAs Won't Do. Invest in Power, Water Solutions
2. Human Capital, Security, Market Development, Warehousing and Emotional Intelligence to Manage Investors Who Will Wonder Why You are Struggling in a period That Has Seen The Most Stable Economies Bank on Govt for Survival. I do not Expect the Short Term Investors to Understand
3. Because Contracts Have Supposedly Been Signed. What is The Puzzle Though is the Wonderment About Why Businesses in Nigeria Should Struggle, When Almost 50% of Small Business Worldwide are Under Water. The Day Businesses & Expectations Becomes Abstract, The Day Visions Becomes

#OCCUPYFARMS: Don't Be Deceived Nigerians, No President Has Been As Honest With You as @MBuhari When it Comes to What Agriculture Can Do and The Effort Needed to Make Agriculture Work for Nigeria.

With 84million Arable Hectares of Farmland and a Population Topping 200million,
2. There is No Sector Capable of Sustainable Economic Growth Outside Farming and Agribusiness. We Have The Ability to Mop up 25million Jobs Even Though Low Paying Within 5years, We Have The Capacity of Becoming independent When it Comes to Food Production in a Decade and That
3. Will Reduce the Demand 4D USD By Over 30%.

We Can Basically Connect Rural Nigeria to Local Markets With Roads and Power, We Can Stop The Nonsense Foreign Dependency Habits & Consume Made in Nigeria and This Will Be For the Good of All not Some Nigerians but All Nigerians.
