Being a professional farmer with a BSc in Agriculture and trained in Africa, I keep encouraging farming in Africa by sharing knowledge through educative videos.
Keep on sharing ...that is good
Want to venture into agric will you mind sharing your contact with me
do you have a youtube or facebook page where you share that information?
If the people of Africa can come together to harvest the little rain water they do receive during wet seasons the same way that India did in recent years, Africa would become a produce power house. And if they do achieve such a monstrous feet they need to keep big ag out of the picture. Big ag is a very terrible thing
Hit me up inspire? I'm starting an Aquaponic farm in NC.I want to Blow it UP in NC for next 3 yrs. Then take my act to S. Africa & BEYOND. HIT ME BACK
This is my dream May God bless Africa
I am next billionaire in farming
Mama Africa can feed the World.
All ready does on the Humble
I'm from Ethiopia God bless Africa! land of opportunity!!!
Just a minor correction - green revolution or industrial farming will be disastrous for African people and the consumers of food grown accordingly. Punjab in India was the green revolution hotspot that had rampant use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Now large number of farmers get treatment for cancer, travelling in a train named Cancer train.
Please focus on organic or agro-farming for sustainability and beware of the harmful technologies.
I'm planning to move into farming full time.
Great information. More Africans need to hear this
One of the dreams coming true soon ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼
Tell it all over Africa. D potentials are huge. Agric is profitable and sustainable
Thank God am on this path
It was a great video that provided us in-depth thinking of agri-investment in Africa, and the advanced experience from the Nerthland. Thkx
Love!!!
Uganda the pearl of Africa blessed with fertile soils.we thank God
God blessing you all Amen🙏
Africa will feed the world 🌎
A really great video!
Thank you!
Abundant arable land, great opportunity to utilize this opportunity
Love investing, tell us more of these opportunities also name some direct contacs
True
I believe you.....and its my damn passion
I am from Ghana and a farmer myself, look the village where I am farming is full of fertile soil and a river which can be used as tourist sites, somany opportunities for us especially we the youths but the sad thing is that the youth want fast money,they are not changing to catch up with how technology is changing agriculture,96% sub Saharan Africans have old primitive mentality of farming,the mindset is holding us stagnant.we hardly change.
At least its healthier food. Love it. Dont despise small.
@@robertgeller7374 I believe you live in a developed country. The reality is that people who get it right in farming will make far more money in developing countries than developed countries. Although, you're right that few make money because even in the developing countries, most farmers lack the know-how of modern agriculture.
I am an American with Nigerian descent, and I LOVE to see advancements in agriculture. After our green revolution here in the US, we have destroyed our soils. So I am now working to regenerate the biodiversity in soil so food can grow naturally again.
All the very best in your endeavors
All the best in your endeavors. How will you do this. I am intrigued and wondering if I could help achieve this
I would like to get into the processing side of farming. Too many things spoil and go bad before they even reach market, but if you processed the food, it would last 30 times longer.
Eat it fresh and stop over production. It’s about life not money
@@kloud27ss I'm pretty sure it's about growth of your economy but okay
Great to have this education of farming
Need ASa tangible link from inside Africa to apply now, let's get conn
acted, perhaps by email. See you soon.
I am starting a chicken farming business. God help me
Amen .
Me to
Good luck.

Agriculture have done alot to the world, if not for agriculture no living thing could have been in existence
But how can this fact become possible in Nigeria where and when these Fulanis herdsmen are busy endangering the lives of farmers? People are now even more drawn back to go to farming because of the fear of these callous monsters.
The world should help nigeria and annihilate all terrorists, love from South Africa
@@hlengiwemasondo2858 question is, who decides who the terrorist is?
@@jesuschristislordoflordsan427 the people of Nigeria
How to be a part of this activity
I'm from India. I always wanted to live in Tanzania near Lake Victoria, hope some day I will go there
Come to kisumu Kenya
6th point of green revolution is total waste, people in India are switching to organic from synthetic fertilizer.
This is an undisputed fact.
Am preparing to do agriculture this year in Tanzania, kindly advise me what to grow and market, that's what confusing me I have a very huge of land,
check out with your neighbours that live nearby. go out in the woods and look. what grows as "weeds" is obviously loving the soil. then you can google the plant and look for uses. there are even websites and apps which lets you upload a photo of a plant, leaf or whatever and it identifies the plant with pretty good assurance in my experience. also if there is lack in your neighberhood about it or not ofc. though things can change quickly i think. one sure bet, not the least here in northern side of the world, is potatoes i think. even if it doesnt succeed too well or if noone wants to eat potatoes, it can be used as food for the animals. and it grows pretty good in our soil. also, i think trees are great. while "waiting" for them to grow, one could plant and harvest other stuff at same place more or less
as Jesus revealed in the holy bible, there are seeds that fell on good soil
also you might want to concider taking help of animals ofc. your weeds and shit can be free food for them
Send your contact.
I'm going to be next billionaire in farming thank God
Oh no no it doesn't work like that, however you will talk to God alot, even beg for a crop some years. So on that happy note ,it won't take long to know if your cut out for it..

Glory to God Africa is the centre of the world
Say No to polluting Agriculture!
🙂
It could be the same around the world and not just Africa. Too much waste happening on the planet and too many people using up resources. However many have no idea how to grow food, nor are they interested in learning.
🤲🤲🤲
african people, don't fall into the harmful agricultural ways of the western world. Work WITH the land, don't poison it. You are our last hope.
money is corruption. Realize only what you Acutally NEED.
अफ्रीका can turn billionaire farmers colony if it stresses on highmptotein nuts Brazil nuts ,cashew nut,almonds pistacheoWalnuts Avacados ,pears and figs This will bring rain as tall fruit trees attract clouds
Africans. A few important questions to ask: Are the “farmers” the landowners or the labourers? Are they BORROWING money for inputs if so who are they borrowing from? Are they farming genetically modified seeds owned by foreign multinationals?
Exactly
Those millionaires won’t have to worry about getting into farming nobody won’t be around by then
The 45 who thumb down these video must be aliens who eat rocks
I haven’t watch the video but this is definitely not about dairy farmers that’s for fact they’re dropping like flies! The middleman are making all the money ! Dairy farmers are getting screwed
The title of the video does not match with the content talking about Africa.
africa can feed itself ha ha ha not so fast my friend.. IT can feed the whole world. it twice the size of russia..
Yea but imperialist white supremacists will take and and take from its natural citizens
Yes! Cuz then top-notch rich people will be trillionaire.
This guy is not serious. A farmer cannot become a billionaire no matter what. Even if we will have more food, instead of growing, we will simply make a small bread that when it absorbs milk or water expands and fills up a plate. The biscuit will carry all nutrients required. The raw materials will come from direct growing of crops but those people will become millionaires or billionaires. The billionaires will be those who makes those nutritional one meal biscuit. If you wanna become a billionaire. Move up the value chain and study processing.
Yes. Agroprocessing is where the money lies.
There won’t be farmers I the future
oh you are looking forward to the nuclear war?
This is a very rosy projection of what "could" happen. In reality farmers remain poor because the primary beneficiary of agri tech revolution are the fertiliser, pesticide, and seed producers. Farmers practicing conventional, chemical based system that depends very heavily on monoculture practices cannot survive without continuous purchase of those chemicals and seeds. - enslaved. Not too mentions the pollution of water resources due to leaching of chemicals through the soil.
Startup that receives too much glut of funding is very risky, there is no way of ensuring accountability. Just like you cannot ensure government to behave honestly to its citizens.
Your information is very biased.
you are descibing africa as if it is populated by whites
That's the goal.. the regentification of Africa for whites
