How to Lease Land for Farming
How to Lease Land for Farming
Here are the 5 main steps:
Find the piece of shamba you want to lease.
Check the size of the shamba, boundaries, who it belongs to and if there is any problem with the land.
Also,make sure that the person offering you the lease is who they say they are - exchange your ID’s.
Tell the landowner what you plan to do on the shamba. Have a written understanding and people present
to see and confirm it.
Talk with the landowner about the specific rules and conditions of the lease. This includes: how much rent
you'll pay, how the land will be used and how long the lease will last.
Come up with a written agreement and have it approved by the local administrator such as a village elder
or chief.#trending #Dairy #Dairyfarming #Silagemaking #Silage #Freddairy #Dairyfarminginkenya #viral

    • @FredDairyFarm
      @FredDairyFarm 24 дні тому

      The silage is best fed to pigs that are over three months of age and weigh more than 25kg.The results, although not conclusive, indicate that some urea (1 to 2% ) can be used by the growing pigs. However, the diet must supply the essential amino acids, or they must be added if there is to be a positive response.But be very careful of nitrate poisoning.
