    Am a retired but not tired Ugandan teacher who is training farmers in my country to refertilize the depleted soil by use of cover crops like jack bean,lab lab and cow peas to mention a few.Besides that i train them to make compost manures,use dry cow dung and urine,make pesticides using locally available materials.I have instructed them not to use chemical fertilizers because the are dangerous to both environment and man.So my appeal to you is help.Thank you

    not trying to be noisy into your personal biz,....but trying get good idea for myself if its good idea to get into gardening/producing crops as a career path; so my question is, did you even profit into five figures digits at the end of the year? Any small details would but much helpful, thanks!

      Great question! No I did not, yet. However, getting into any new venture there is a steep learning curve. Not to mention, most businesses take about 3-5yrs to really be that profitable, depending on your skills, knowledge, and capital going into it. I started by bootstrapping everything, very little capital, but I do have the land. I reinvest most Proffit right back into the infrastructure. However, we've seen steady growth every year. That is a long winded way of saying maybe...if you are in it for the long haul, and don't have to survive 100% on the farm income, and are passionate about growing food and feeding people, then yes, it's a good idea. I'm not getting rich, but I really enjoy what I do. Good luck my friend, thanks for stopping by 👍🤙✌👨‍🌾

      @@SimplisticFarms Last Year, I was 4 years in, and we finally got to the point where we were grossing double our inputs (first two years were comical failures from a business standpoint). Even though I had grown up managing a .25 ac garden for my family (and selling some surplus), there's a big difference between sustenance farming and market farming (especially in a new locale and soil type you've never worked with before); and I struggled a bit for the first couple years.
      Now in year 5 we're doing a lot better (despite trying to dryland farm produce (spoiler: not a great plan)), we've reduced our area to 0.6 acres, and we're selling out of pretty much everything every week. Next year will be a lot better, because we're putting in irrigation and I'm going to start using scheduling apps to help me stay on task more with succession planting (this year, I got so focused on moving raspberries, trees, and blackberries to such an extent that we have a big gap in produce this year). Operators that crush it their very first year, especially with limited prior experience commercially farming, are the exception, rather than the rule.
