If you are not patient enough don't worry you can still be in the agric business.
Yes, I said so because along the value chain there are many ways of making money but one key opportunity for those who want to venture is agro marketing. #farms
There are many agricultural products people around you consume; you could start being a distributor.
In fact, most times I advise anyone who wants to go into farming or production to start off marketing. #business#innovation#selling
That way you begin to learn some basics so when you go into your own, you would have identified the need of the customers in your niche.
For example, if you want to start a layers farm, sell eggs!
Get people to know you as an egg seller, in fact, get to a point true caller identifies you as "chioma egg seller" that way when you own your layers farm, marketing and getting customers to stop being an issue for you😉.
This works most of the time. #MotivationalQuotes
I started off as an agro product marketer as a student and even when I had a farm then, I can say the lessons were memorable and experience filled.
I won't drag this for so long but I would tell you product sales is a huge market and there are a whole lot of things you can do
The good thing about marketing agro products is that unlike the normal networking business where people don't see the need for their products, or even you the seller never get to you them; the agricultural products especially food has a versatile customer base including yourself.
Food is everybody's need even during the pandemic situation, Nobody came to the streets to share clothes, shoes, plates, makeup kit or jewelry; in fact, anybody who shared that now wouldn't really be appreciated by the low-income earners( the crowd) like those sharing food.
The agricultural sector is still in sales; precovid,during and post pandemic. rethink your decision to join the agricultural value chain,both as a business and a way to add value.
One thing I know for sure is that the beauty industry would forever strive same as the health industry but the best news here is that the Agricultural sector is the foundation for their success.
There is an increased use of organic cream. Also a lot of Nigerian and african ladies now loves to keep their hair in it's natural form hence the need for various essential oil to keep up.
Oil business is a good business to venture into if you have a lot of young ladies around.
The popular oil we all know is the
1. Groundnut oil 2. Palm oil 3. Coconut oil.
But the truth is that these 3 oils are not even the only set of oils in the agricultural market.
Many other oils, especially the ones used for beauty and health maintenance are called essential oil.
