Laws of Farming 

17 essential guidelines for managing an organic farm, From seed selection to nutrient management to planning to save production costs

Farming Si Ya Kushikilia 

If you tell yourself that wacha nianze kufanya Farming nishikilie nikitafuta kazi, you are wasting your time.

You won’t succeed with that mindset.

I have encountered hundreds of such people. They are told that Farming iko na pesa mob. They pay for seeds. Land preparation but don’t bother to take care of the crop.

I am left wondering. Why read Veg Farms Kenya articles halafu unaingia mitini.

Si hiyo pesa ungefungua tu kipanda ya mboga ama unanze kuuza tu smokie kachumbari

This Farming lifestyle requires serious commitment. Hii si ya kushikilia my fellow Kenyans

Wee enda tu utafute kazi yenye ulisomea . Na mtu hasikuambie hakuna jobs out there. Banks are hiring tellers. TSC is hiring teachers.  Supermarkets are hiring

Enda tu utafute kazi uache kujisumbua na hii Farming

17 Laws of Farming You Should Know

1. Avoid aiming for peak times; peak times have their own difficulties. Don't gamble; be a farmer.

2. Decide on a rotational crop strategy and at least two main crops. It's not good for your pocket to switch from one crop to another.

3. Unless you have seen it somewhere, never plant a novel seed on a wide scale before conducting trials.

4. Never trust a farmhand with your million-dollar concept; be present at all crucial stages of crop development up until marketing.

5. Never hire a member of your own family to run your farm; they almost always let you down.

6. If a thing is quickly perishable, never hesitate to get it. Sell it for the going rate.

7. Plant the same crop if you and your neighbors are farmers.

8. Never use farming advice you find online without first consulting an agronomic.

9. Develop a fertilization and spraying strategy and follow it.

10. Never heed the advice of pesticide sales representatives and Agrovets. They are primarily salespeople rather than agronomists.

11. Make every effort to reduce agricultural expenses without sacrificing the quality of the produce.

12. To ensure a steady supply, plan your farm and keep the crops at various stages of maturity.

13. There are no unprofitable crops; just learn the advantages and disadvantages of each type of crop.

14. Having a large number of animals does not guarantee successful farming.

15. Consistently have a farm plan.

16. Old is always preferable.

17. The vast majority of antiquated chemical and seed varieties won't let you down.

18. In farming, passion is essential and will help you succeed.
