Agriculture- kale farming in Kenya

Kenya is known in the whole world for its agricultural produces. This has been there for many years so you don't really need lots of research to get approval that farming works in Kenya. It's fact that you don't really need to be a large scale firmer so as to be an exporter of food crops, NO. There are plenty of organizations that bring small farmers together and help them to sell their products into the international market. Among the most popular include; Young farmers, small scale farmers association and Coffee board of Kenya.

However you may be coming from an area which lacks such organizations but that shouldn’t be an issue. The technique is: have the product! Food supplies will never lack market; -in fact there is always a ready market for every food crop just next to your doorstep. And that simply means money! Sounds small huh? Then, here is the one million dollar question worth asking, are you ready to live and die jobless.... Start small buddy! You have to have the produces at hand so as to begin a market search.

Take for instance kale farming in Kenya. You need very little capital to begin this, in fact for a hundred stems you need only less than Khs 200/=. So let’s be realistic guys, getting such an amount is not an issue. Figuring the much you spent on your cell phone credit, it’s a fact that you can't fail to get 200/= bob?

Let's proceed, preparing a nursery will take you less than half a day for this and the formula is simple. Accumulate a soft layer of soil in a 2*2 meter plot of land and roof it with grass to avoid direct sunlight. Poor your seeds on shallow finger-made tunnels then sprinkle some water if the soil is too dry.

Transplant the seedlings into a lager section of well prepared land after 2 weeks and ensure to water them regularly until they get strong. Check and spray your kales whenever you notice an aphid invasion (aphids are small insects which are easily eliminated by spraying). Also you can seek for more kale growing tips and help in any agro-chem facility around.

So far your mind is working! Is it? Assuming with these 100 stems you get khs300 per harvest or can comfortably feed 10 families for are week what if you expand your boundaries to 800 stems? It is no doubt that you can do wonders within the shortest time possible. All you need is commitment and working smart. By this I mean you can decide to be supplying your agricultural commodities only to the rich guys and men! You'll catch them as is a fact that rich people prefer fresh vegetable! So aren't you working now!
