Fruit farming success

Who knows where I can get land, i need about two acres to lease

Look for two groups in Facebook: Digital Farmers Kenya and Africa Farmers Club. They are very helpful as farmers here discuss all sorts of issues as well as advertise. Specifically, for passion fruit farming, look for a group called passion fruit farmers Kenya. For papaws, look for Papaya farming Kenya group. As usual, do your due diligence before engaging any person there.

I have heard about Ol Kalau

What’s the size of your land?

My own is 1.5 acres and have leased 2 acres

I know i am overreaching but what is the average investment for an acre of passion fruit?

I want to do apple farming. Almost every other farm near us is starting or already has tree tomatoes, I planted a few but not for commercial reasons. I started with 20 apple seedlings but I will be adding a lot more next month since these ones are doing well

Hiyo story ya apple, shamba yako iko wapi

Ukiweza ongeza jackfruit, (fenesi) , na unyamaze… One fruit goes for 400 bob local market western belt. Ikienda abroad its way pricier. Its famous with people obsessed with their health, the leaves are equally good for those with diabetes and to some extent blood pressure.

How long does it take from planting to harvest, the last time I checked it takes ages

About 3-4 years… First year fruiting quantity is low but with huge fruits. Note: I never did soil test as with anything else I farm, my farming zone is kitale and might slightly vary with your locality.

From Busia County all the way to Mbale in Uganda this fruit grows wildly. Halafu bei pia iko chini sana

Hiyo unyamaze ni fruit gani in English? Sounds new

:cool:
Jackfruit…takes a while to grow but maintence free with proper mulching: unyamaze means plant and forget.

Ooh ahaha sent me wondering

Hii Jack fruit imejaa huku kwetu ,watu wanakula Hadi wanatupa zingine . Where can I get a market for this.

Si uzilete Kenya. Naonaga road hawkers pale Sagana kwa bumps wakiuza

Niko Kenya Busia county to be specific , nikipata mtu mwenye anaweza nunua kuzifikisha huko sio shida.

Watu hawapendi hizi vitu. I also don’t like them yet have never tried them. Sijui huyo moto @livefire aliona soko wapi
