This is Mr. Simon, a Nigerian farmer and growing tomatoes, cucumbers and habanero peppers. What started in 2021 on just one acre of farmland has grown into 30 acres spread across three different locations. And he didn't even study agriculture. I am Simon Nyoroofun. I'm the CEO of Green Vine Farms Nigeria Limited. So I started my agri business growing cucumber and habanero pepper in 2021. I started on one acre of land. I started expanding because of the demand and the how profitable the business is. Of course, we know because of the population in Nigeria. What's the size of your farm? We are operating on 30 acres of farmland. But I didn't even study anything related to agriculture. This is one of the most profitable business you can do in Nigeria. It motivated me about growing in vegetables like tomatoes, cucumber and banana pepper is because of the demand. There is, you know, high demand for it. No one can do without consuming pepper or tomatoes in a day in Nigeria. I don't stress myself before I sell my products. The problem with farmers in this part of the world is that they don't work on their youth. They tend to focus on the on the market price. Once you have the expertise and you have good yield, forget about the price. You will make times three of your money invested. The type of farming we are practicing is precision agriculture. When you invest 5 million naira, you are sure you are getting times two, three.
