COMMERCIAL YAM FARMING IN SACKS/ Step by step process how to plant yam in bags/ 12,000 yams in sack

[@igbo9111]

Good job my friend. One suggestion: use more durable bags. Lay out your bags in rows. That will ease evaluation, inspection and access to individual bags/plants for maintenance( weed and pest control) it will also lend your process to mechanization.

[@OH5311883]

I love your determination. It is hardwork but the Good Lord will reward you handsomely.

[@PhilippinesFarmLife]

Thank you sir. Watching from the Philippines and doing the same type of farming.

Can u share with us sir the cost analysis from the cost of yam, cost of sacks, Labours ans every other cost For this particular 12,000 sack projext

Great information about the fertilizer. If the leaves turn yellow, what is the plant issue? It's outside with plenty of sunlight. Thanks.

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

Check to see it's not in water logged area. If it's not, it means it is some nutrients deficient, e.g nitrogen. So, get fertilizer, NPK 15:15:15 and mix with poultry manure. To get them back to great shape and health state

[@PastorIhaza]

Great explanation on the reason some sprout faster🏆. With that in mind, wouldn't be a good idea to plant the heads separate, the tails separate, then the insides? That way the focus would be in a particular area based on type, and likelihood to sprouting faster? THANKS FOR THE GREAT INFORMATION🕊

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

You're very correct, that has been effected actually in subsequent projects

[@JunaTabTheChosenOne]

Do you water it ? If so how often do you water the plants?

[@PastorIhaza]

@@JunaTabTheChosenOne I think I didn't watered mine enough. I have to start another one. This time I'll make sure it can drain better and water it more often. We have cold weather now, so I'll start it inside. It's fun to try.... I sure hope I can get a good system that works. Yams are so expensive here.

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

I can imagine . How long is summer?

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

We don't. We're using the rain for the cultivation

[@Anointingify]

Thank you for the video, pls how often do we water the plants especially when it's not raining.

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

Maybe once every week, maybe twice or thrice. Its dependent on the soil. You have to always check the soil randomly to ensure it is moist and not dry.

After harvest, can the same sacks be used for another planting season? How durable are the sacks? Is there any particular sack you will recommend? Thank you for the good work you are doing

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

You can't use them.

[@olumidemcintosh6265]

@@ChidavAgriculturalHub why can't one use them again apart from the sack being ruined?

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

They would have worn out and won't be able to carry the soils again for another cycle of production. But, if you could get or more durable sacks, with a more durable texture, you might be using them for a couple of cycles

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

We don't use plastic bags. The sacks are biodegradable.

[@nauticdixons]

​@ChidavAgriculturalHub the bags are not biodegradable. They'll break down, but that's nano plastic fiber that stays on the earth for decades.

[@Bb-tn4ob]

Nice one 👍

[@phillipadeleye798]

Is it possible i mix the sand itself with insecticide and fungicide before packing them into the sack, just thinking 🤔

[@accidentalfarmer7750]

Must one use breathable sacks or can use laminated ones?

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

Use breakable ones. They are environmentally friendly. You dont want to use a material which would pollute your land after harvest.

[@belloadewale4342]

Can I plant yam any time of the year? Will yam seeds sprout anytime of the year? How long (months) will yam spend before maturity (harvest)? What nutrients (fertilizer) does yam required to have bountiful harvest? At what time do I need to apply them and possibly the i to apply? Thanks as I await your prompt response.

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

Yes, you can plant anytime of the year as long as you have water. It takes about 6 to 9 months to maturity. Then, for the last question, you may need to join our mentorship program. As I can't give any generic recommendations. There're certain factors that would inform nutrients recommendations.

[@belloadewale4342]

@@ChidavAgriculturalHub OK. Thank you

[@greatmindsgreatpeoplegmgp9237]

Please how long does it take to sprout? Mine is 1month 2 weeks and no sign of sprouting yet

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

This is dependent on the dormancy state of the yam. Some can take up 2 months plus. You need to also check to see that the seeds are not decayed yet. And to make the sprouting faster, creat an enabling environment for the seeds to sprout faster.

[@greatmindsgreatpeoplegmgp9237]

Not very tedious to do, ok Just cut your stakes, which could be bamboos, dig a hole and put them right in the hole

At the seed planting take time to educate where should face down and where especially the cut set type of seed. At the end of the project what then happen to the soil that the too had been removed

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

At the end of the production cycle, the top soils remain on the farmland, and gradually are spread across the field.

Can you do another video of a honest comparative cost analysis of this project? Please don' take my critique of this project personally. I am interested in it because I am a yam farmer too and I think you might be putting too much resources, time and labor than is necessary if you use another method therefore, I wonder what your profit margin would be at the end.

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

Noted.

[@PastorIhaza]

Isn't the bag method to yield more per land amount? Like if land is limited, using bags will allow more plants? The cost of each could still show which is better for desired outcomes.

[@ChidavAgriculturalHub]

You very correct

[@amusatolaitan2972]

Aside that, one can use the sack method more than one time compare to the convectional method.
