Mr Fred when it comes to Ghanaian businesses, not opening-up I sometimes equally wonder why our society is what it is. I watched this video where this woman had 35,000 birds yet when she was asked whether poultry farming is profitable, what she said was " Nyame adom kakra kakkra". I mean what is Nyame adom kakkra kakkra? Yet in this video, she showed the viewers a 5 story building she's constructing for a hotel.
I have always gone to Uganda and Kenya to watch this kind of detailed analysis of business " success rate" because they are open and frank about their business as you are doing.
We love ❤️ you and please keep giving us more.
Guys ,it's because they are greedy. Fred is honest and God fearing. Continue the good work Freddie. Samuel from Italy!
Honestly!!! It is just soooooo frustrating. It's like why don't we have a win win mentality in this country? Other places prosper because the market is big, everybody can be part of the winning team
Thank you so much for this informative information. I have two questions. 1- what kind of breed are your chicken? Where do you buy them?
@@Kupefilms probably novogen brown and depending on where you are go to the closest veterinarian. Medivet is a good company too
@@eliserose2547 Thank you so so much. I want to kickstart in Gambia.
Hi Fred, that is an African problem. We are scared of competition and Africans have a mentality that he only wants to succeed in the community. That is why the people voted into power only think of themselves and family members. Thanks a lot for your excellent informative presentation of farming in Ghana.
50% true.
@@YouStillNeedToSleep 98%
Hi Fred, thanks for you're #transparency and to share my opinion on why many livestock farmers don't wanna open up on about their profit margin is simply because they are afraid of competition and also want to be the only ones who succeed. This is a part of the many challenges we face in our part of the world people hoard information to themselves and tend to deflects people curiosity with holy ghost 👻 mantra like "is by the grace of God".
I'm very grateful that we have people like u who communicate to Africans and the larger word with undiluted truth and transparency.
Looking forward to starting my own farm. Thanks.
Thanks for your input Samuel, and you are right. What type of farm do you plan on starting?
I’ve been waiting for someone who is so inspiring. I’ve been living abroad and recently came home because of the pandemic. I’ve been wanting to start poultry farming and there haven’t been any info so sincere like yours. Thanks once again will add u on whatsapp
Bro we can link up I also want to start a poultry farm +233555299019
We are afraid of competition but we don’t know competition add value to everything we do. If is Service we strive to do better than our competitors therefore we give our best service to customers.
the only information they share is how your birds can die. i'm grateful i found your channel.
Thanks bro. I had 500 backyard poultry sometime ago. I had to stop because then I couldn't get enough time off my main job. The man I engaged to look after the birds had started to sell the eggs for over two weeks without my knowledge. In fact I've great interest in poultry and would want to reenter in the coming years.
You are from a different generation. I too am going into poultry farming in Ghana and believe in sharing information. Perhaps we should start an association to share knowledge with each other, and others. You should look into duckweed as a source of protein feed for your chicks, it's easy to grow. Black Soldier flies are also a good supply of protein.
Fred our generation will do better to share the information because the old generation hmmm. GOD bless you so much bro
I do also think most farms or farmers don’t have better records in terms of finance and their farm activity like you are doing. Thanks for hard work.
Hi Fred, thank you for sharing this amazing information and unselfish information.You are a patriotic Ghanaian who have mother Ghana and its citizens at heart. Blessings!
Some people don't want to share information and some doesn't keep records of their businesses l started mine simple watching UA-cam videos l will share my experiences when I got to know my business if God will
Thank dear, the is very simple, we're very greedy, envy,jealous and enemy of progress. Only few people are like you. Please continue your good work never give up.God bless you.
I think openness is a function of character, exposure, and level of education. Most people in the industry see others as competitor not as partner in progress. But I think if government can take the problem of secured marketing of farmers, they may become more acommodating of others.
Good job my brother for being so open and also sharing your experiences with us. For the question you've just asked, all that I can say is simple greediness and selfishness. People think if you are given the information, you will start yours and and become bigger than theirs. SIMPLE!!
Hmmmm
Thanks so much for the wonderful information, hoping to visit your farm before starting my own, lots of love from here in Nigeria.
Thank you too Sir, Please subscribe to our channel for more videos
Thanks Fred for daring to be different and sharing important information, vital to success in farming business.
There're so many reasons why Africa is still behind other continents in development. Hoarding information and refusing to mentor the younger generation are some of them.
But with forward thinking and selfless young Africans like yourself, who are committed to the growth and development of the continent, there's real hope for a much greater future for all Africans. God bless you abundantly. Keep up the good work.
Im a Liberian following your break down on how it goes and I love how you are explaining it so encouraging
Hey Fred thanks again for an amazing an informative video! I generally believe that some people do not think that breaking down information and sharing is useful but on the other hand I think some people are definitely selfish and do not want the competition, well as obviously coming from your point of view and certainly mine, we want to feed the nation and share the wealth!
Loretta you beautiful, have a good day!
Not everybody is as good and honest as you are fred, some are just nefarious. God bless you
Because of their selfish interest keep on bro
Thanks bro. I am about to start with 400 birds. Am really grateful
Yeah 400 is a good number to start with. Keep us posted on the progress
Fred can tell you about his farm because he keeps records!
Thank you Fred. I'm grateful 🙏
You are so welcome. Pleasure is always mine
Blessings be open you for being such a thoughtful person.
I hope I can have a second chance to have these knowledge.
Now I'm. I'm too old to start In my 70this
Thank you!!!
You are good, thanks for the informations, one day I will visit you, thanks Alfred Nyema
Sharing is caring let’s expand Africa by sharing. It’s good to share because we all learn
You just won a subscriber over. You will continue to be great Fred.
I’m really enthused with the kind of education you are giving to us. I will want to have contact with you for other needful information since I’m yet to start my farm
Please do +233241177677
Greetings from Germany ... we love your work and words ... one world - one Love
Hi Bro. I am watching from Kenya. I love your episodes. You are an inspiration to many of us in Africa. This is the way we are going to grow to the next level in this continent. Thanks for your deep analysis in these topics.
Thank you!!! I will be in Kenya doon
awesome video....watch it few times :)
what is your feed conversion rate (FCR) for the birds? That is for every gram of feed the bird eat, how many gram it gains in weight?
Do you mix your own feed with those ingredients base on the age of the bird?
what is your cost per bird, selling price per bird, gross profit margin per bird, and net profit per bird? Though, you're farming for eggs? at what week do you expect the bird to start laying eggs, how many eggs per bird for the life of the bird?
your feed and medication were:
1st month = $1238 for 2000 birds = $0.62 per bird
2nd month = $1416 for 2000 birds = $0.71 per bird
3rd month = $1828 for 2000 birds = $0.92 per bird
3 months (12 weeks) = $4493 for 2000 birds = $2.25 per bird
looks like will cost you about $1.00 USD per bird per month for feed and medication, what is your operating expense per bird per month? operating expenses would include labor/staff, transportation, power/electricity, water, and so on.
thank you very much for sharing :)
Interesting breakdown too. Are you a poultry farmer yourself? Curious
@@ernestagyemang7007 backyard poultry :)
@@xyooj96 a small one you mean??
Thank you very much for your education encouragement to get into farming planning and I wish to start
You can do it!
Thanks for sharing. I am learning a lot. I really don’t have a clue as to why poultry farmers are not sharing their experiences to support young investors. maybe they are not aware we consume more than we can make and Ghana is forced to import. maybe they want to guard against intellectual property. would they rather offer training for a fee? I am just guessing here. I do watch your videos and I am glad you have decided to share your experience.
God bless you for being selfless the information is huge
Excellent. I totally admire your commitment to knowledge sharing and transparency. As a people we can only grow and improve when we grow as a collective. Great job. Keep up the good work. ✊🏿👊🏿
Fred, many thanks for sharing. Bro, in fact, you are really God-sent
Thank you and God richly bless you.
Thanks for sharing your information.
Beautiful step by step analysis and calculations of expenses
Good job Bro. Usually it's the Poverty Mindset that makes us behave that way.
Nice work and inspiring videos, I’m a Nigerian and I’m currently on farming project and will appreciate if You can guide me in this journey.
Thanks for the info..much appreciated
Thank you for all that information
God bless you, my brother. Wonderful information.
Ignore that answered at the end of the vid. Fred you amaze me
Thank you very much , I am actually looking forward to start with 2000 birds .
Fred you are the best for giving information. thank you
Great insight brother. God bless you
Quite impressive...you were very vocal and audible..thanks very much for your transparency.... i believe you are well loaded with experience...
Wow, thank you!
You're the best brother keep up the good work, you're farming educational program is very interesting and understandable. Actually, I reside in the USA looking to venture into farming in Africa but you program gave me some sort of hope . Thank you again for doing this for us God will continue to give the knowledge and wisdom to succeed in your endeavor.
Thank you so much Tola !!!! Your word are heart warming.
Such an open person. Great job buddy!
Wow... Great insight. I just came across your channel and it's been very helpful. Pls can we get a video on the cost of building a poultry pen. Thank you
Watch his previous video
Thank you Fred Thank You
Thank You for sharing. I'm in the USA about to purchase my land. Your videos are very informative. #TRANSPARENT!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much for the breakdown. Great analysis.
Competition. Farmers are always worry about success and failure. Not only their own but, also that of the near by farmers as well. It can be a big problem to have many problems and then the time you are really successful everyone else is being successful as well. That can create temporary issues of over production causing prices to fall and the actual profit from farming is lowest when you have your best production.
You're doing great
We're all learning from your methods
Hi Sr. Can u do a video about all the costs? From building the house to buying the chicks and bringing in water source.
I do also think most farms or farmers don’t have better records in terms of finance and their farm activity like you are doing.
Thank you soooo much Fred. This is so detailed and very transparent, and helps anyone who wants to venture into poultry. I am at the planning stage now and this is exactly what I need.
You are welcome. Thank you for the comment and please do subscribe for future videos
@@FarmingInAfricaOfficial Sure, I subscribed the very first day I came across your channel. You really upload informative content. I am just starting the livestock farming journey too.
I need more information about poultry farming
It's because many do not do any bookkeeping or accounting so they can't give you specifics.
Many small business owners in Ghana do not keep record of their cost and expenses that's why they can't typically tell you
Prices are changing all the time. Petrol price can change tomorrow and every price will change.
The losses and gains change all the time. Plus there is the fear that you will know more, do it better, and be more successful than them. Also when your animals die, it can be a painful experience and some people will want to avoid any topic that will lead to the bad memories.
Because we have a lot of selfish business people in Ghana who thinks,someone will be better off than them in the same trend of business. Good job 👏 👍 👌
wow this information is very insightful. how many times a day do they eat?
great stuff bro.
Kindly convert the cedis to dollar for us to relate well.
I often follow ur but help us out these costs in dollars I'm from uganda
Your cost of feeding is very high. Adding the cost of milling bagging and transporting. Gapfa makes very good feed that should have you sorted for about 5000 cedis a month with transportation inclusive. Don’t know that helped
great African man, thanks Semanhyia
My pleasure
I enjoy watching your video. Because of your video I am interested in to do a poultry farm in Ghana. Please which part of Ghana are you located? I myself I live in Kansas city Missouri USA.
Our farms are in Berekum in the Bono region and our agrostore is at Achimota in Accra
God bless you ❤️❤️❤️
Such adept analysis. God bless you Sir.
You are welcome sir. Thank you for the comment and please do subscribe for future videos
@@FarmingInAfricaOfficial please if I may ask, do you rear your cattle on the same piece of land? If yes, How many acres of land do you rear your poultry and cattle/other livestock on? And the cost involved in building the poultry pen. Thank you 🙏
May God bless you bro, I really appreciate
Hi Fred
This is not a Ghana issue only...it's everywhere in Africa. People think you will steal their business idea or you out do them in what they do. They also don't wanna to fail alone...they also want others to start by failing
Thank you so very much bro I love what your doing
I love you so much, thanks for the good work. God richly bless you my bro
Thanks a great deal.
The main reason is because people are not willing to be in competition
Thanks. This is the video I've been waiting for
Wow very impressive.
is this for Layer chickens?
How much weight at one bag ?
Need not other minerals, vitamins ?
Please reply sir. Love from Assam,India.

Amazing what you are doing. You have inspired me to do similar business with you. I have to subscribe
Good breakdown, does it includes salary
Europe exports chicken to Ghana for cheap because European farmers get plenty of grants and subsidies from the government so their products end up being cheaper. So when they are selling chicken to Ghana for cheap, that's because their production cost is covered by the grants they get. Ghana farmers, however, do not get same benefits from their government so all their expenses are added to the sale price of the chicken. For this reason, when you go to buy chicken, the imported one is cheaper! One more thing: based on the environment, Ghana may be spending more money on medicine for the imported day old chicks because they are not native to Ghana. Therefore they catch more diseases than if the chicks are in their native countries in Europe. Somebody from Kenya who imports the same day old chicks from Europe will have to deal with different diseases that are common in Kenya, etc
Tanks bor
Thanks for the update please can you please give me the size or kilograms of the bags of maize and soybeans?
Please visit www.farminginafrica.com/free-resources
Hi Fred, just watch this video. Please can you send me a particular link that has to do with pen construction from foundation level to roof level.
Secondly, how possible is it for me here in Nigeria to visit your farm in Ghana for live experience in poultry business
Great job bro keep it up.
Thank you this video is very informative.
How many kg is one bag?
Thanks you bro. Some of our brothers are selfish .
hmmm
This is educative
Hello Fred, please is there any major difference in local day old birds and foreign day old? Other than price. As local cost about GHc5 and foreign GHc8?
Hi my name is Crosby. I am looking to start the poultry. Is it possible to meet you please?
bro do you mind me asking how many acer of lands are you guys farming on.. i'm looking to start something similars.. are you farming your cattle and chicken on the same lands..
Why people don't want to share information in Ghana when it comes to doing business. It is to do with our basic education systems . ie Someone has first, second, third..... we are not thought how to share information. So when it come to sharing information we don't know how to do it because we are thought in school to become first, second, third, and so on.
Widespread corruption in Ghana has red the distrust of which you speak. Bad-minded people lie in wait to sabotage you as soon as you open your heart. Very Ghanaian! Perhaps you can publish a detailed ebook and sell it at low cost. It must have contact addresses.
The area around your farm looks conducive to open range feeding. Have you tried that?
How many bags of kujis did you buy for the first month
what is the cost of buying your first 300 birds?
Excuse please , no cost of electricity ?
Please can you help me start a poultry farm in bolgatanga
Sure! How can we help you ?
I am beginner and have not even completed my structure but have been curious in how much a 14-week layer may cost because I don't have the capacity yet to start with the day old layer birds. Any help?
