THE REALITY IS THAT PROFITABLE FARMING NEEDS CAPITAL, BUT HERE IS HOW TO START TO JUST N100k.

Water source is non-negotiable, use an already established water-source from someone's house/farm.

- Get an already fenced area and rent (a quarter plot is okay)

- Buy 200 tomato seeds (Abale RZ F1), that's about N11k



- Nursery kit for 200 seeds (7k should do, 1kg cocopeat, 2 seedtray and small soluble NPK)


- No irrigation system, just water directly (furrow)


- buy granular fertilizer (DAP, NPK and MOP) -30K 

- buy pesticide (Abamectin, cypermethrin and emamectin benzoate ) - N20k


- The labor is not intensive, handle everything by yoursel


- Get Bamboo/woods for staking in the bush for freef.

NOW LETS DISCUSS REVENUE 


At least each will give 3kg tomatoes


Let's say 150 plants survived and 50 died (due to mistakes )


150x3 = 450kg

450x1500 = N675k (Wow, wow).


THIS IS POSSIBLE BUT NOT AS EASY AS IT MAY SOUNDS PLEASE.
