01.01 Describe your startup in more detail

I am a young man with the vision to establish one of the biggest and sustainable farms in Nigeria and Africa, though finance is a barrier. Therefore I see this as an opportunity to push me closer to achieving that goal. This project is aimed at producing farm products, especially Crop in a year round method (Rainy and Dry season) by utilizing mechanized farm methods, minimizing waste and it's effect, to ensure a safe and well fed future. To do this I need a good space of land as well as other mechanical farming equipment to efficiently carry this out. Growing up in a family that wholely depends on farming for survival I always wished and worked to see that it will be done differently and better to sustain not just the family needs but the nations. I have for this reason attended classes on agriculture particularly CROP PRODUCTION and its processing to enhance my knowledge on how to do it better and I believe with this opportunity I will get it done the right way. Let's Feed the World!
