A wise Nigerian man has devised a creative system of yam farming within the confines of his compound to resolve economic hardship.
One of the man’s daughter said her father uses bags of cement filled with loamy soil to plant his yams within his compound instead of making use of ordinary land.
“The empty Dangote and BUA Cement bags were filled with the rich soil, and pieces of yam were inserted into them and then nourished with water”
It is interesting for seeing a nice way of farming within the compound without having to look for a parcel of land.
Instead of making use of land, the man makes use of empty Dangote and BUA Cement bags, which he fills with rich soil.
He used loamy soil which is rich in nutrients. He then plants the yams in the empty Dangote Cement bags and then irrigates them regularly.
The man’s method is really interesting, considering that he could get good yam from his bag farm without having to worry about owning a parcel of farmland.
