Sometimes your land isn't too small for any agricultural project, you just need experts like @BenatFarms to help you do the planning, designing and implementation.

This is a 1.19 acre plot, don't sit on gold!

The first step to commercial farming is planning.

Over 75% of Uganda’s key food crops, including coffee, beans, simsim, sunflower, and mangoes, depend on bees. Yet pollinators are declining due to toxic pesticides and habitat loss.

Protect the bees, protect our food, protect our future. 💛 #WorldBeeDay #SaveTheBees

Dear livestock farmers,
Feeding accounts for over 70% of daily farm operational costs, planting your own pastures for livestock feeding helps cut costs.

The second season of the year is here!

We bring you quality Pakchong Napier cuttings for planting at affordable prices.

[Benat Farms @BenatFarms]

Dear farmers,

We bring to you quality Chloris gayana seeds at affordable prices.

@MutabaziIsaac10 Hey Isaac, in the first place termites are good decayers at the farm. But since you want to control their detrimental effects, try using live fencing like euphorbia and fodder trees, you can also try treated poles or treat them like we do this side by boiling them in used oil.
