Last week, we made significant progress in speeding up the construction of our new 60,000 capacity broiler unitš This expansion is a crucial step in enhancing our poultry production capabilities and ensuring we meet the growing demand for quality chicken. Hereās what you can expect from our new facility: - The unit will feature a modern, insulated structure designed for optimal conditions for our broilers. - Advanced Equipment: We are incorporating the latest feeding, drinking, and environmental control systems to ensure the health and welfare of our birds. - Sustainability Focus: Our construction methods and operational practices are aimed at minimizing environmental impact while maximizing efficiency. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to build a better future for poultry farming.

The estimated growth and expansion of 10 sheep in a year depend on several factors, including breed, nutrition, health, and management practices. Assuming the sheep are healthy and well-managed, here are some general estimates: - *Reproduction Rate*: Some indigenous breeds, like the Dorper, can lamb twice a year with an average litter size of 2.65 Ā¹. With proper management, a flock of 10 sheep can potentially produce 20-30 lambs per year. - *Growth Rate*: Lambs typically grow rapidly in the first year, reaching around 50-60 kg (110-132 lbs) by the end of the year, depending on breed and nutrition. - *Mortality Rate*: Mortality rates can vary depending on factors like disease, predation, and management practices. A well-managed flock can expect a mortality rate of around 5-10% per year. Considering these factors, a rough estimate for the growth and expansion of 10 sheep in a year could be: - Starting flock size: 10 sheep - Lambs produced: 20-30 - Total flock size after 1 year: 30-40 sheep (assuming a 5-10% mortality rate) Keep in mind that these estimates are rough and can vary depending on specific circumstances.

In 2023, Iāve convinced over 500 farmers about getting started from where they are and Iām seeing positive results. Itās not all about land size, bank balance or paycheck. Investments are progressive when they are protected from surging. Iāve done land use planning to some farmers who were not believing in themselves until Iāve narrated how things work on the farm, now they are continuously progressing in their business. The reason for successful business is systematic planning and management thatās why youāve known some of these companies over years and they are growing. Every year they are growing, there is someone driving that vision and that person has made it a system that even works in his grave. Donāt wait to retire from your job and start farming afterwards. Just do it as a business and start now. Iām bringing this narrative because Iāve seen how other farmers tried it at late as they were waiting for the best time. Did you know during Covid 19 period where going to work was not allowed, Iāve seen those with their land lying idle, running around to get started because farming was now better for them because formal working was prohibited. No income, no job no incentive. I know about 7 people who get successful from farming after they quit to their jobs and they focus on farming business, full time on the farm, getting paid based on results not based on time. Letās start to talk about land use planning now

What people think cows do: - Take up valuable agricultural land - Waste humungous amounts of water - Tear holes in the ozone layers - Produce dangerous meat - Loaded with antibiotics and hormones - Live most of their lives in factory farm squalor What cows actually do: - Make use of land that can't be cropped - Get the vast majority of their water from rain - Help sequester carbon in the soil - Produce the gold-standard superfood - Along with hundreds of other byproducts - Don't pass on any antibiotics or hormones - Live most of their lives on grassy meadows

A must read: 10 lessons for upcoming farmers Farming is never a get-rich-quick scheme; it's a process that needs patience, determination, and dedication. Above all, plan strategically if you want to break through in farming. Learn to do AgriBusiness, not just farming without purpose Never lose focus. Even if you don't see yourself where you had anticipated, always trust the process. Document your process and review at the end of each cycle. This helps you know what works and didn't work. Make adjustments where necessary. Always remember customers will always buy the cheapest in the market, but good quality products will set their own prices. When you're aspiring to inspire, make sure you invest in yourself, learn the art; visit other farmers and learn from them. Through this, you will one day be the master. Consistency is the deal; let people know you at least for one product which never lacks in your farm. Learn to be unique; never be a product of copy and paste. Seasons are never the same; sometimes prices will heartbreak, while in other seasons you will see your Mercedes Benz packed in your farm. Farming needs capital. Never start a project which you're not sure of its completion plan. To be a successful farmer you should learn the market trend, know what sells best and where to sell. Farming is not an option for lazy men; it's a task for the strongest hearted.
