After the resumption in January I went as the rep to school farmland to discover that this almost 4 hectare. Of land has fallowed for almost 2 years It was extremely bushy, the last time it was cultivated was September 2021 mostly due to the strike The clearing of the land was my responsibility I’ll spare you the details of how that went..just know that it was heitic 2 Likes

After the land was cleared the time came for us to create alley ways and then mark out the places were potential plots will be made on the farm My prof instructed us not to burn the debris as they would be chopped and used as mulch,my set was to pratice minimum tillage and the mulching would be used to handle weeds instead My Prof is really a master of what he does and a perfectionist to the core Anyways that’s me leading my class by example 3 Likes

Plot creation was another very heitic and tiring part of the job Each student was to get two plots Measuring 7m by 5m One plot would be used to plant maize at 75cm by 25cm And the other for a vegetable at various measurements 2 Likes

During clearing. Many taps and pipes on the farm were broken by the different hired labour we contracted to clear the bushy farms So it took my prof about a week to get bring people to repair the broken pipes and by that time we had already planted , and watering became an issue Thank God it only lasted a few days before the taps were repaired many students couldn’t cope with the stress Anyways here is the seed variety of the maize we planted 4 Likes

During the cropping season NPK 15:15:15 was applied as the basal fertilizer Before Urea fertilizer was used, It’s interesting to note that Dangote is also into agro chemical products As one of the fertilizer we used was a product from his company Almost 2 months into cropping and here we are people 5 Likes 1 Share
