As a beginner with no Experts help, Never start your farm with an Acre , it's too big. Try to invest in simple agro-techniques on a smaller scale like 1/4 of an Acre. You will get a better yields at the end. Trust me on this. Start small , Reinvest and Upscale....

There's no shame in starting small, rather you learn and gain experience. This is the very First production of Loleza Habanero pepper ever produced here in Ghana and it was done on less than 500 sqm of land, you will not believe the yield. Today the farm is more than 3 acres

Guys!! Remember the office peppers ? This is how beautiful they're fruiting. This is how easy Farming has become. The protocol hasn't failed yet.

Currently we have Bell peppers and Cherry tomatoes in our greenhouses. We don't grow in soil, we have cocopeat in plastic bags And because of that we irritate and fertilize Everyday till the end of the production cycle. This is science and Art of Farming.

Plants use about 95-99% of the water they absorb for cooling . The remaining 1-5% is used for metabolic activities, such as photosynthesis, maintaining turgor pressure, and other cellular processes essential for growth Don't torture your plants if you don't have reliable WATER

With a limited budget and a small space you can start a commercial garden for lettuce. 100 heads per bed 5 cedis for 2 heads 10 of these beds you can potentially make GHC 2500 every 60 days

Beds are formed, drip lines are laid, and plastic mulch is being installed. The first plot for Habanero production is almost ready for the season! More ahead. Stay tuned for more updates! #HabaneroFarming #DefarmercistGroup
