Hi mondo farms. Thanks for the channel, quiet insightful. Where do you buy your onion drips and what's the specs?

[@mondofarms4343]

Thank you, Ba Mwila. Welcome aboard. You will see us giving many more details about such things in other videos. There is even a specific video we did recently about drip irrigation that has helped many viewers.

[@emmanuelchisangano7664]

Isnt the spacing too much? Whats your target market? Otherwise,very inspiring channel

[@mondofarms4343]

Spacing varies as per farmer and per crop. But thanks for your valued contribution to our channel 😊

[@bwanjengandu2397]

This is inspiring. I did a lima this year for experience and it dd well. Can i plant onion in december? Will it survive the rains?

[@mondofarms4343]

Rain season onion is quite a challenge. It often only succeeds with experience and luck. My advice would be for you to carefully watch our Onion 2022 Update 3 which shares the challenges we faced, and then update 8, where we show the harvest of the Dubai 1A onion crop we have tried. It wasn't a great success. Mind you, it could have been better with hybrid seed varieties instead of the OPV.

@@mondofarms4343 Thank you so much for your reply. I will follow your updates. Regards

Whom did you use for drip irrigation installation?

[@mondofarms4343]

Our team installs our irrigation.

[@jairosbanda7837]

Chisha your water reserviours what are the dimensions

[@mondofarms4343]

They are quite big. Can't remember the dimensions. Only the final result if holding over 1 million litres. We will feature some details later in the year when we do a video on the next reservoir we plan to set up.

[@marykankle1366]

Please send me more videos thank you so much

[@mondofarms4343]

We hope you have managed to watch more of our videos.

[@monicamussasa8635]

I like what you're doing just my opinion, I don't like the name of Dubai you can even name that place musasa it will be fine but for Dubai no for me. Kkkkkkkkkkkkkk no Dubai in Zambia because I've never see a place in Dubai called Zambia🙏🙏🙏🙏.

[@mwanamazala5088]

Probably the naming has deep meaning to him, and is personal. Maybe it represents the places that he visited and had fond memories of. Bottom line is, his work is inspiring, so hope it inspires you to get into farming if you are not already in, and you can name your farm areas whatever names you like.

[@monicamussasa8635]

@@mwanamazala5088 please find a place to forgive me for my basic writing, I didn't mean to offend you with my comment about Zambia and Dubai.

[@mwanamazala5088]

@@monicamussasa8635 not at all offended, and not at all bashing you. Was just pointing out the possibility that the naming might have personal meaning to him. Nevertheless, the idea of naming different parts of farm land was inspiring, and something we can adopt, but just with different names that have meaning to us personally.

[@mondofarms4343]

Thank you both for your level of engagement with our humble channel.
