Very proud of another lady doing this. Our farm in Ivory Coast with 3500 birds just started laying a month ago and dropping 40 crates of eggs per day. I am much younger than her and see myself doing it lifelong. It is a great activity.
Wow 🤩 congrats 🍾 to you and that’s a great 😊 way to go. I believe once you acquire all the needed experience, coupled with longevity- you will expand beyond our imagination 💭. We celebrate 🎉 you all for the hard work. Congrats 🍾🎉
Congrats my sister, I’m myself starting a 1800 layer birds in Libreville but the sales person who is supposed to program to acquire the birds locally is playing hard to contact them. Which really a down side about our people. We are stuck at this stage, we can’t move forward until she decides to communicate with us. Very sad, no notions of good service to those who make up her salary. Q: How many eggs in a crate?
@@mcdiorlafricain5076 the standard is 30 eggs per crates. Isn’t Libreville un Gabon? Try to get them from a surrounding country. We order ours from a company in Côte d’Ivoire and got it in like a month. We don’t go to a certain person.
I didn’t see you paying for the eggs you collected I can feel the farm is not actually generating enough profits God bless all poultry farmers in Ghana 🙏
True ohhhhh, I was gifted Actually the farm was doing great 👍🏿. There was a decline in egg production and could have been feed issues. I was there see how my friend was doing and decided to do a simple video and it got some attention. Thanks 🙏
My paternal grandparents moved from South Africa to Zimbabwe and bought 4 farms for livestock and agricultural farming, hmmm this kinda projects are not easy it's hard work, well done though.

Very good initiative, I advise you to envolve your sun or one of your close familly member to sure the continuity of your business. Normally most of the african business man, when they die, every thing dies with them we have to start doing diferent now.
Wow such a huge poultry and livestock farm. Hmm the pig price, goes by the weight wow. Wow, congratulations to the owner, such a great insight, hmm I like the construction of the fish pound
I like what she did, but she should not just leave it like how is being done in Ghana. She should add value to the poultry farm. For example the pave way should be cemented in a nice way, not too big ,but nice to walk on. She left the ground without a beautiful plan
Thanks 😊 will surely communicate this to her. She has plans of adding value to the farm. Your ideas will be communicated. The next time I visit the farm, we hope to bring you the best.

Man can’t disagree at all. You said it 💯 and very true, she calls the shot. Very humble woman and she doing marvelous. The farm is growing and she is doing marvelous.
This is all Africa and other developing countries need. In no time the story will improve. Please can i get information on how to import from Holland or Germany to my farm in Ghana

It’s been sold. I know the popular ones we know are made of recycled paper or cardboard but there are polymers too and they add color to the polymers to make the crates. Thanks
Impressive content...really appreciate this. I'm looking to get into poultry farming myself and this was very informative. Sister Rita is doing it major over there in Ghana and the manager in charge seems dedicated and educated. I wonder if she does any consultations? Please do let me know. Getting accurate information on poultry farming isn't great. People tend to tell you different things. It was nice to hear some Ga being spoken at the end.😊
Thanks 😊 for the kind words. I believe she is open for consultation. I will discuss with her and get back to you. Yes the farm manager is educated in what he does and he does a great job 👏. This content though made in haste and unplanned brought my Channel the needed numbers. There is a deeper story and will try and interview them again if possible. Message me on Instagram Skt_in_focus let’s talk. Thanks my brother and ohh I did Ga in basic school so you already know. I speak 🗣 Ewe and Twi as well. Looking to add one more if possible. Thanks 🙏
The fish name I didn’t hear, well but it’s factual that 70% of chicken 🐓 eaten in West Africa is imported . This is sad so this is a wise move by this lady…
@@deecee4310 mud fish and tilapia. She is into layers for eggs 🥚 and sells chicken when egg production is low. Very lucrative but lots of work. It takes the right people to manage it. Thanks 😊
Your youngest birds are about 10months meaning all the 10 000 birds are in production and you are only 160 trays of eggs at peak, When you could be getting about 300 trays per day. You should get back to the drawing board.
Thanks for the comment I should have explained better. We visited Keta and on our way back to Accra I requested we pay the farm a quick visit. Video was not planned but that’s one of my most viewed videos. 4,500 birds at the time of video were about 10 weeks nit 10 months and not started laying yet. The brown birds to the other stretch and another pen, which was the first pen were the ones actively laying so about 5,500 birds were actively laying. I later learned great 👍🏿 info that led to the poultry farm and had wanted to go back to do an extensive video. They also had an organization for women empowerment visit their farm after they saw the video. Lots of work to do but one step at a time. They had started fish farming also. Thanks for your observation, I can tell you into poultry farming or know about the business. Keep in touch. Am on Instagram as Skt_in_focus
@@TheSENYO I'm in Belgium now watching. They never respect every knowledge of black man. Whatever we do they don't respect as. Even they respect every race human beings. But when it come for black man.we are last in everything for white people. So why do we still promote their goods
@@asasek3si397 I understand your frustration my brother. Truth is we can’t pay evil for evil. And someone will ask why do we also travel 🧳 here?. Our own people are very wicked towards us. Man if I want to narrate stories it will be fire 🔥 here. I have a background in International Studies and not gotten a job yet in my field. Guess what, they give to those who they want. But we do worse to our own people in Ghana 🇬🇭. You think 💭 they will give me a job in Ghana 🇬🇭? But the Laws work here so the people can hate all they want but the laws protect us. Mind you am all for going back home but trust me our own people will make you run back here. Am just been honest. I have also read a bit about King Leopold II of Belgium and all the atrocities he caused in the Congo. Hope you understand me, life is how we make it.
Great looking farm. What's the use of asking the same questions many times and shocked at the same answer repeated to you? I absolutely love hard working Africans and agriculture in general. If I could suggest, I prefer to see specialized farming. Do chickens alone or goats or fish or pigs. It's a common practice in our lovely African to jumble everything in one farm but not great at any one practice. Out in USA, EUROPE, Asia, people pick on type like cattle or chicken an perfect it over decades. I really wish our farmers could embrace specialized agriculture. The resources used to produce goats, pigs and fish could have been used to improve the infrastructure and production of the chicken farm but instead, it's used for other projects hindering the success of the chicken farm. Best of luck and great job.
You have a great 👍🏿 point. I did not realize I was asking same questions. The owner is a good friend of mine and very shy 🙈 so I did a walkthrough with her first then engaged the farm manager himself later. So it’s obvious I will ask same questions and thank God their answers whisper to me that she knows what’s going on in the farm and taking records as well. In regards to specialized farming; you are perfectly right but again some people want variety. If I go into Such business I personally will like to take on two or three projects so poultry, and goats 🐐 may be ideal for me. But you have a great point worthy of consideration. Thanks 😊
@@TheSENYO Glad you clarified yourself. Great thing is you helped her in offering exposure. I am a rancher and I have cattle since 2003 in Africa and I am in USA. I have taken this long to horn in on cattle farming and I am just beginning to see a smooth running operation and Great yields too. I am considering expanding it from a few hundreds to thousands but it took long to master the trade. I would have long tired out or given up or never arrived such results if I had embraced many types of farming. You know, we have dreams and we can't accomplish them all. We just need to pick the best one. Farming is difficult and broad, we as Africans tend to chase the money/market on every type but forget to realize that you can be a builder/carpenter/electrician/doctor/lawyer and be good in all of them. Same in farming. It's better to pick one and dominate the region/country as the best than small here small there. I see chicken farmer in USA with 350,000 laying hens or 5000 reproducing cattle or 12000 pigs and it's family owned and operated. One family. Grand father started it then passed it to son then grandsons and so on. That's how wealth is built. We don't follow that in Africa and that is a major problem if we will one day be successful as a continent. I wish your friend could follow my advise but I doubt she would. With the current capacity and having partners, she is at the break out point but she is delaying that explosive phase by diversifying. She should "keep the main thing, the main thing". Thanks a lot for bringing her operation to the world. Success in all you/her do. God bless
@@Gamma19245 In the US, UK and Asia too people do Mixed Farming so stop your nonsense comparisons and let them enjoy their farming. How big is your farm? Cut your useless comparison out and let them do what they want. If they borrowed their capital from you go and take you money back.
@@Gamma19245 wow 🤩 you just changed my whole perspective and I must just admit you know what you talking about. With this detailed explanation, I will advise her accordingly. Thanks for the great insight. Am very humbled sir.
@@gb6041 senior please let’s keep it clean. I personally would love mixed farming, like taking on two or three farm animals but he makes a perfect sense as well. Will relay messages accordingly and hope she makes the best decision to build her empire. Thanks 😊
Black people go streight to one's pockets on the questioning? 🐥🌽🐂 This is were the real stock market started. Diaspora (Slave's) were brought to the new lands because of our skills in farming.
Got the point you put across. And yes we got the skills in farming. It was handed to us from generation to generation. We must carve our own path and stay true to ourselves. Thanks 🙏
Great work. Try and start a farm to produce at least your base feed ie maize that will make you control what you need to control and maximise your profit. Kudos.
She's here to contribute her quota to developing our country. I believe there's no other time than this unlike those who are always making excuses and comparing apples to mangoes before they will do something. God bless her endeavours.
When I see a poultry farm with lot's of trash laying around, free ranging birds around the coups, no bio containment it makes me think it's only a matter of time before disease wipes out all the flocks. Hope not, but it's extremely common.
Very well noted and has been discussed, with key efforts to improve surroundings etc. I learnt a lot and hope to bring an update video with a facelift. Most empires started like this and gradually improved. Thanks 😊
The Ford Escape does a good job 👍🏿 I transported 4 crates they gave me in the trunk of the Nissan from the farm in Sogakope to Ashongman Estate in Accra, not a single egg crack. The truck 🛻 won’t be bad though
pig gen and fowl pen and the general surrounding land needs to be landscaped to maximize your potentials You are well on your way to success wow in am still very impressed
Hmmm well as the saying goes “the world 🌍 is a global village” It’s stressful but with careful planning one can save and go back home to invest but you got to be there to monitor the progress of the business. Thanks 😊
Please we wore the farm crocs and dipped into the disinfectant before stepping in pen. The blue material around jacks neck is mask 😷. Mask, well that’s another layer of protection. Concern well noted. Check Farmup on UA-cam by Dr. Daniel
Learning that from you and it’s amazing 🤩 I am novice in the field of poultry farming. I went to my friends farm to catch a glimpse for the first time and video went well. Am yet to learn a lot about the business. Will be glad to share ideas and learn
Q: Where did they get those farm t-shirt made? Can they provide contact info from where they purchase their day old birds? Is it possible that I have the contact number of the farm manager that speaks French? I would like to put him in touch with my farm manager to be.
Yes 👍🏿 The farm T-Shirts were made by a team member who works in farm. It’s easy to get that done. Just get your own plain T-Shirts and the design and print should not be that costly. Yes 👍🏿 will get contact info for the day old chicks 🐥 Yes 👍🏿 will get you his info. Very honest guy. My email 📧 kesterforu@yahoo.com Send email 📧 and will contact you. Thanks 🙏
The floor area is covered with wood shavings and I believe chickens scratch a lot, unless I am missing something. Will advise to visit chicken farms as well. With what I saw 👀 and this was raw footage video, she is doing great 👍🏿. With few things in place she could build an empire. Thanks 😊
Located in Sogakope in Volta Region. I surely believe she will give you a tour but can’t promise. You can google search 🔍 Len Farms sogakope and their info is there. Or check description box for their contact. Thanks 😊
@@kingssportschamp.5055 That’s very true for most business, especially in the Agricultural field. It’s best to start small. She built a 2,000 capacity pen but started with 1,200 day chicks 🐥 and now expanding to over 10,000 birds. Plans under way to build another pen and trust me next interview will be much better.
you farm is not healthy. You need to improve the health of you land space. What is wrong with the birds is how you house the birds this is a major reason why you are having so many issues
Very well understood. I also believe every business goes through phases Every phase requires proper assessment Planting grass to cover land will be ideal but also bear in mind that the grass will need to be mowed regularly and birds can’t stand noise of mower. It may cause panic. Also the business is growing and I can say they moving in right direction to maximize the land usage. It started with 1 pen housing about 2000 birds now they have two, housing 8,500 to 10,000 birds. The cause of reduction in egg 🥚 production happens in most farms and theirs was due to feed supply. I will still raise your concern and have them discuss possible resolution. Thanks 🙏
She just started, a step at a time. Looking at everything at the farm,she has invested a great deal of money. Everything is the world takes time to grow (so do u) and in the next two to three year,u will be surprised.
@@estherboakye5782 thanks 🙏 for the kind words. I try my best to understand everyone point of view and answer in a nice way, just like you did. You see most people have not firsthand seen the project. Seeing is believing. I live in Dallas, Texas and have seen few farms and I can boldly say her farm is doing well compared to what we see here. The nice ones they show on TV are mainly grown with hormones to feed the masses. This chickens/birds are healthy and lay great eggs. The ones roaming around are free range birds- house chickens we call them. I have also spoken to owner and already the fish farm is stocked. Through this video she got contacts coming to see and learn how she operates from the USA 🇺🇸, Germany 🇩🇪 and Sweden 🇸🇪. Their goal is to also educate others and empower them to start something. I take all comments seriously, learn from it and advise myself as well. Thanks for your kind words.
Thanks for asking. The term diaspora has just gained attention lately. Diaspora is a group of people who have moved from their homeland to other places in the world 🌍. Truth is we use it because it has gained attention and people search it a lot on UA-cam. She is Ghanaian by birth. Lived elsewhere in the world 🌍 and is home to birth country. Hope you ok 👍🏿
@SKT In Focus is the caretaker Ghanaian? How's their issue with snakes, thieves, herdsmen like? Does she have a ready market for the eggs, pigs? Does she pay any taxes to the local assembly?
@@markntiri8251 so I will answer based on information I have. Am planning to go back and interview. Am guessing because of the French you want to know if he is Ghanaian. History tells me we are one ☝️ people with diverse backgrounds. I will find out that information. No concerns of snakes 🐍 were raised and herdsmen issue is a no no. Not in Sogakope I know of. Ghana 🇬🇭 has very little issue with herdsmen. She employs locals and has ready market for the eggs 🥚. I understand if you register your farm for the first 5 years or so it’s normally tax exempt. Local tax I don’t have that information. Taxes information is very rigorous and one needs to understand before asking. How many Ghanaians pay tax? Well let me leave it at that. She has contributed her quota- that I know. I hope 🤞 am making sense.
@SKT In Focus our sister is doing well and we're proud of her. There's been research that shows about 80 percent I think of Ghanaian start ups collapse in the first five years. Sustainability is a big problem with Ghanaian businesses. We wish her the best
@@markntiri8251 you are very right. Like 👍🏿 I said I wish I knew all answers and am eager to go back and get lots of insight. From the little I know. It’s a very insightful business and there is lots to learn and know. The caretakers story is very powerful and I have advised her to keep him at all cost. He is well trained in what he does. She is expanding her business. The fish pond is stocked already. We may have our reservations but she has hers as well. Am just happy to learn from her. Her video brought my channel up to speed, my upload brought her some contacts. A win 🥇 win 🥇. Am still learning and hope we all can learn. Information is very expensive. Thanks my brother
Seeing is believing, I felt same but the birds like to crowd themselves together. It’s a huge pen divided into three sections. To be honest I love how they operate. It’s a growing business and I believe she will take all your concerns into consideration. Thanks 😊
Got it, it was a random question and I know definitely one will spend more than that. I think 💭 my question was not well explained. Jack is a blessing to the farm, the story behind the farm is amazing and I will try my best to engage him again with better camera 🎥 and sound. Thanks 😊
I thought the numbers where way off too. I have a paultry farm and even the structure should be more than what they estimated and then we have to be really be realistic because paultry farming is no joke at all. If any one is going in please be fully prepared!

Have never seen red egg crate before
It’s been sold. I know the popular ones we know are made of recycled paper or cardboard but there are polymers too and they add color to the polymers to make the crates. Thanks
Over 10,000 bird 🦢 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😘😘😘
Thanks, will surely forward your clap 👏 and love to her.
Impressive content...really appreciate this. I'm looking to get into poultry farming myself and this was very informative. Sister Rita is doing it major over there in Ghana and the manager in charge seems dedicated and educated. I wonder if she does any consultations? Please do let me know. Getting accurate information on poultry farming isn't great. People tend to tell you different things. It was nice to hear some Ga being spoken at the end.😊
Thanks 😊 for the kind words. I believe she is open for consultation. I will discuss with her and get back to you. Yes the farm manager is educated in what he does and he does a great job 👏. This content though made in haste and unplanned brought my Channel the needed numbers. There is a deeper story and will try and interview them again if possible. Message me on Instagram Skt_in_focus let’s talk. Thanks my brother and ohh I did Ga in basic school so you already know. I speak 🗣 Ewe and Twi as well. Looking to add one more if possible. Thanks 🙏
The fish name I didn’t hear, well but it’s factual that 70% of chicken 🐓 eaten in West Africa is imported . This is sad so this is a wise move by this lady…
@@deecee4310 mud fish and tilapia. She is into layers for eggs 🥚 and sells chicken when egg production is low. Very lucrative but lots of work. It takes the right people to manage it. Thanks 😊
@@TheSENYO Much thanks but I’ve never heard of Mud Fish 🎣 🐠 🐟 . I will do my research.. Grand risings
Your youngest birds are about 10months meaning all the 10 000 birds are in production and you are only 160 trays of eggs at peak, When you could be getting about 300 trays per day. You should get back to the drawing board.
Thanks for the comment
I should have explained better. We visited Keta and on our way back to Accra I requested we pay the farm a quick visit. Video was not planned but that’s one of my most viewed videos. 4,500 birds at the time of video were about 10 weeks nit 10 months and not started laying yet. The brown birds to the other stretch and another pen, which was the first pen were the ones actively laying so about 5,500 birds were actively laying. I later learned great 👍🏿 info that led to the poultry farm and had wanted to go back to do an extensive video. They also had an organization for women empowerment visit their farm after they saw the video. Lots of work to do but one step at a time. They had started fish farming also. Thanks for your observation, I can tell you into poultry farming or know about the business. Keep in touch. Am on Instagram as Skt_in_focus
Where I stood and interviewed the farm caretaker, all those birds were not laying yet. I will surely go back for extensive video
All Praise to the Most High Yah
Amen 🙏
Farm very super i am visit .next year veera in south india
Yes it is- I was amazed. That will be great to visit. All the best
We need to learn how to make our own birds healthy.
We can't keep buying from slave master.
You have a good point but we need to move cautiously devoid of feelings.
@@TheSENYO I'm in Belgium now watching.
They never respect every knowledge of black man.
Whatever we do they don't respect as.
Even they respect every race human beings.
But when it come for black man.we are last in everything for white people.
So why do we still promote their goods
@@asasek3si397 I understand your frustration my brother. Truth is we can’t pay evil for evil. And someone will ask why do we also travel 🧳 here?. Our own people are very wicked towards us. Man if I want to narrate stories it will be fire 🔥 here.
I have a background in International Studies and not gotten a job yet in my field. Guess what, they give to those who they want. But we do worse to our own people in Ghana 🇬🇭. You think 💭 they will give me a job in Ghana 🇬🇭? But the Laws work here so the people can hate all they want but the laws protect us. Mind you am all for going back home but trust me our own people will make you run back here. Am just been honest. I have also read a bit about King Leopold II of Belgium and all the atrocities he caused in the Congo. Hope you understand me, life is how we make it.
@@TheSENYO peace bro.
We hope the best.
Is big challenge
@@asasek3si397 thanks man. All the best in Belgium. We love Ghana 🇬🇭 we will return one day
Great looking farm. What's the use of asking the same questions many times and shocked at the same answer repeated to you? I absolutely love hard working Africans and agriculture in general. If I could suggest, I prefer to see specialized farming. Do chickens alone or goats or fish or pigs. It's a common practice in our lovely African to jumble everything in one farm but not great at any one practice. Out in USA, EUROPE, Asia, people pick on type like cattle or chicken an perfect it over decades. I really wish our farmers could embrace specialized agriculture. The resources used to produce goats, pigs and fish could have been used to improve the infrastructure and production of the chicken farm but instead, it's used for other projects hindering the success of the chicken farm. Best of luck and great job.
You have a great 👍🏿 point.
I did not realize I was asking same questions. The owner is a good friend of mine and very shy 🙈 so I did a walkthrough with her first then engaged the farm manager himself later. So it’s obvious I will ask same questions and thank God their answers whisper to me that she knows what’s going on in the farm and taking records as well.
In regards to specialized farming; you are perfectly right but again some people want variety. If I go into Such business I personally will like to take on two or three projects so poultry, and goats 🐐 may be ideal for me. But you have a great point worthy of consideration. Thanks 😊
@@TheSENYO Glad you clarified yourself. Great thing is you helped her in offering exposure.
I am a rancher and I have cattle since 2003 in Africa and I am in USA. I have taken this long to horn in on cattle farming and I am just beginning to see a smooth running operation and Great yields too. I am considering expanding it from a few hundreds to thousands but it took long to master the trade. I would have long tired out or given up or never arrived such results if I had embraced many types of farming. You know, we have dreams and we can't accomplish them all. We just need to pick the best one.
Farming is difficult and broad, we as Africans tend to chase the money/market on every type but forget to realize that you can be a builder/carpenter/electrician/doctor/lawyer and be good in all of them. Same in farming. It's better to pick one and dominate the region/country as the best than small here small there.
I see chicken farmer in USA with 350,000 laying hens or 5000 reproducing cattle or 12000 pigs and it's family owned and operated. One family. Grand father started it then passed it to son then grandsons and so on. That's how wealth is built. We don't follow that in Africa and that is a major problem if we will one day be successful as a continent.
I wish your friend could follow my advise but I doubt she would. With the current capacity and having partners, she is at the break out point but she is delaying that explosive phase by diversifying. She should "keep the main thing, the main thing". Thanks a lot for bringing her operation to the world. Success in all you/her do. God bless
@@Gamma19245 In the US, UK and Asia too people do Mixed Farming so stop your nonsense comparisons and let them enjoy their farming. How big is your farm? Cut your useless comparison out and let them do what they want. If they borrowed their capital from you go and take you money back.
@@Gamma19245 wow 🤩 you just changed my whole perspective and I must just admit you know what you talking about. With this detailed explanation, I will advise her accordingly. Thanks for the great insight. Am very humbled sir.
@@gb6041 senior please let’s keep it clean. I personally would love mixed farming, like taking on two or three farm animals but he makes a perfect sense as well. Will relay messages accordingly and hope she makes the best decision to build her empire. Thanks 😊
Black people go streight to one's pockets on the questioning? 🐥🌽🐂
This is were the real stock market started. Diaspora (Slave's) were brought to the new lands because of our skills in farming.
Got the point you put across. And yes we got the skills in farming. It was handed to us from generation to generation. We must carve our own path and stay true to ourselves. Thanks 🙏
Your chicken farm is amazing
Thanks 😊 will forward your kind words to her
Keep going 💚💚💚💚💜💜
Sure, thanks 😊
Great work. Try and start a farm to produce at least your base feed ie maize that will make you control what you need to control and maximise your profit. Kudos.
Thanks for the advise. Will inform her. She has also promised to do a facelift and build another pen. So gradually she is building her empire.
She's here to contribute her quota to developing our country. I believe there's no other time than this unlike those who are always making excuses and comparing apples to mangoes before they will do something. God bless her endeavours.
When I see a poultry farm with lot's of trash laying around, free ranging birds around the coups, no bio containment it makes me think it's only a matter of time before disease wipes out all the flocks. Hope not, but it's extremely common.
Very well noted and has been discussed, with key efforts to improve surroundings etc.
I learnt a lot and hope to bring an update video with a facelift. Most empires started like this and gradually improved. Thanks 😊
A void those birds loitering outside the pens,they would bring in diseases incase they move outside the side farm.
Well done.
Thanks 😊 and will relay your concern as well.
The women do it best
There is every evident to support that assertion so I agree ☝️
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Impressive
Thanks will relay message to owners
Very nice
We appreciate your kind words
She will need special tracks to transport the eggs.
The Ford Escape does a good job 👍🏿
I transported 4 crates they gave me in the trunk of the Nissan from the farm in Sogakope to Ashongman Estate in Accra, not a single egg crack. The truck 🛻 won’t be bad though
pig gen and fowl pen and the general surrounding land needs to be landscaped to maximize your potentials You are well on your way to success wow in am still very impressed
Sure it’s a great 👍🏿 idea to consider
Will relay info to farm owners. Thanks
It's not crazy commercial, the chickens look pretty relaxed and unstressed.
No not crazy commercial
Production at its peak. They doing great. Fish pond done ✅
Will look for visit and give update but not sure when
@@TheSENYO Great job, thanks for sharing.
@@oceejekwam6829 I really appreciate you more. Am happy to respond anytime. Thanks for kind words And wish you well in all your endeavor.
@@TheSENYO Your a really decent guy, thank you and I wish you success in 2022.
@@oceejekwam6829 thanks and welcome. Blessings
Could you tell me what I'm doing here in this stressful country 🇺🇸
Hmmm well as the saying goes “the world 🌍 is a global village” It’s stressful but with careful planning one can save and go back home to invest but you got to be there to monitor the progress of the business. Thanks 😊
First of all the men were supposed to cover thei shoes and wear mask to enter the premises.
Please we wore the farm crocs and dipped into the disinfectant before stepping in pen. The blue material around jacks neck is mask 😷. Mask, well that’s another layer of protection. Concern well noted. Check Farmup on UA-cam by Dr. Daniel
oh they have the dekalb brown
Learning that from you and it’s amazing 🤩
I am novice in the field of poultry farming. I went to my friends farm to catch a glimpse for the first time and video went well. Am yet to learn a lot about the business. Will be glad to share ideas and learn
Good afternoon sir how do we get in contact with Rita? Any email I want to visit her farm from uk 🇬🇧
I will definitely ask her and get back to you. Thank you 🙏
Hi does Rita have a poultry background in the US?
No please 🙏, she hired a professional in the field for the whole set up and running of the business. She oversees its operations. Thanks 😊
Is it possible to get me a worker for my farm at Kpetoe, Near Ho, also a diaspora started 4 months ago.
Am sure, please send me message on Instagram at Skt_in_focus and will revert.
Thanks 😊
Q: Where did they get those farm t-shirt made?
Can they provide contact info from where they purchase their day old birds?
Is it possible that I have the contact number of the farm manager that speaks French? I would like to put him in touch with my farm manager to be.
Yes 👍🏿
The farm T-Shirts were made by a team member who works in farm. It’s easy to get that done. Just get your own plain T-Shirts and the design and print should not be that costly.
Yes 👍🏿 will get contact info for the day old chicks 🐥
Yes 👍🏿 will get you his info. Very honest guy.
My email 📧 kesterforu@yahoo.com
Send email 📧 and will contact you. Thanks 🙏
Where is this beautiful farm located in Ghana
Sogakope in Volta Region
What is the size of the pig cubes please
Will get that info and get back to you please. Thanks
How did u make your floor area,coz they scratch alot
The floor area is covered with wood shavings and I believe chickens scratch a lot, unless I am missing something. Will advise to visit chicken farms as well. With what I saw 👀 and this was raw footage video, she is doing great 👍🏿. With few things in place she could build an empire. Thanks 😊
👍👍👍
Thanks for the thumbs up 👍🏿
She deserves a hand of applause 👏
Hi
Hi 👋
How many acres is your farm?
2 acres and 3 plots so almost 3 acres. Thanks 😊
if one is interested in the business .can I come to visit your farm please .and where are you located ?
Located in Sogakope in Volta Region. I surely believe she will give you a tour but can’t promise. You can google search 🔍
Len Farms sogakope and their info is there. Or check description box for their contact. Thanks 😊
@@TheSENYO thanks
How much money is she making
It’s more confidential. Hit me up on Instagram SKT_in_Focus
what was her starting capital?
32,000 GHS that was starting capital
It also depends on the money you willing to risk
@@kingssportschamp.5055 That’s very true for most business, especially in the Agricultural field. It’s best to start small. She built a 2,000 capacity pen but started with 1,200 day chicks 🐥 and now expanding to over 10,000 birds. Plans under way to build another pen and trust me next interview will be much better.
you farm is not healthy. You need to improve the health of you land space. What is wrong with the birds is how you house the birds this is a major reason why you are having so many issues
Very well understood. I also believe every business goes through phases
Every phase requires proper assessment
Planting grass to cover land will be ideal but also bear in mind that the grass will need to be mowed regularly and birds can’t stand noise of mower. It may cause panic. Also the business is growing and I can say they moving in right direction to maximize the land usage. It started with 1 pen housing about 2000 birds now they have two, housing 8,500 to 10,000 birds.
The cause of reduction in egg 🥚 production happens in most farms and theirs was due to feed supply. I will still raise your concern and have them discuss possible resolution. Thanks 🙏
She just started, a step at a time. Looking at everything at the farm,she has invested a great deal of money. Everything is the world takes time to grow (so do u) and in the next two to three year,u will be surprised.
@@estherboakye5782 thanks 🙏 for the kind words. I try my best to understand everyone point of view and answer in a nice way, just like you did. You see most people have not firsthand seen the project. Seeing is believing. I live in Dallas, Texas and have seen few farms and I can boldly say her farm is doing well compared to what we see here. The nice ones they show on TV are mainly grown with hormones to feed the masses. This chickens/birds are healthy and lay great eggs. The ones roaming around are free range birds- house chickens we call them. I have also spoken to owner and already the fish farm is stocked. Through this video she got contacts coming to see and learn how she operates from the USA 🇺🇸, Germany 🇩🇪 and Sweden 🇸🇪. Their goal is to also educate others and empower them to start something. I take all comments seriously, learn from it and advise myself as well. Thanks for your kind words.
Which one is diaspora here, I thought it was Africa American
Thanks for asking. The term diaspora has just gained attention lately. Diaspora is a group of people who have moved from their homeland to other places in the world 🌍. Truth is we use it because it has gained attention and people search it a lot on UA-cam. She is Ghanaian by birth. Lived elsewhere in the world 🌍 and is home to birth country. Hope you ok 👍🏿
@@TheSENYO Thanks bro
@@AlkebulanJahmiah welcome 🙏
Lucky you don't have govt sponsored boko haram and destructive cattle herdsmen in your country
I understand your view point. We pray for the best for your country. Thanks 🙏
But we cannot do this abroad without being arrested by the police because we are not animal Drs.
Please can you explain further. I want to understand your point.
@SKT In Focus is the caretaker Ghanaian? How's their issue with snakes, thieves, herdsmen like? Does she have a ready market for the eggs, pigs? Does she pay any taxes to the local assembly?
@@markntiri8251 so I will answer based on information I have. Am planning to go back and interview. Am guessing because of the French you want to know if he is Ghanaian. History tells me we are one ☝️ people with diverse backgrounds. I will find out that information. No concerns of snakes 🐍 were raised and herdsmen issue is a no no. Not in Sogakope I know of. Ghana 🇬🇭 has very little issue with herdsmen. She employs locals and has ready market for the eggs 🥚. I understand if you register your farm for the first 5 years or so it’s normally tax exempt. Local tax I don’t have that information. Taxes information is very rigorous and one needs to understand before asking. How many Ghanaians pay tax? Well let me leave it at that. She has contributed her quota- that I know. I hope 🤞 am making sense.
@SKT In Focus our sister is doing well and we're proud of her. There's been research that shows about 80 percent I think of Ghanaian start ups collapse in the first five years. Sustainability is a big problem with Ghanaian businesses. We wish her the best
@@markntiri8251 you are very right. Like 👍🏿 I said I wish I knew all answers and am eager to go back and get lots of insight. From the little I know. It’s a very insightful business and there is lots to learn and know. The caretakers story is very powerful and I have advised her to keep him at all cost. He is well trained in what he does. She is expanding her business. The fish pond is stocked already. We may have our reservations but she has hers as well. Am just happy to learn from her. Her video brought my channel up to speed, my upload brought her some contacts. A win 🥇 win 🥇. Am still learning and hope we all can learn. Information is very expensive. Thanks my brother
🐌🐌🐌🌴🐌🐌
Eiii this your snail 🐌 needs to be decoded
Oh wow nice,guys can I her number please.
👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿it’s in the description box. That’s number to Len Farms
That’s too many birds are piled up
Seeing is believing, I felt same but the birds like to crowd themselves together. It’s a huge pen divided into three sections. To be honest I love how they operate. It’s a growing business and I believe she will take all your concerns into consideration. Thanks 😊
Please check other farms as well. This farm got space for the birds
Jack made wrong calculations, 20,000 cedis can't raise 1000 chickens...
Got it, it was a random question and I know definitely one will spend more than that. I think 💭 my question was not well explained. Jack is a blessing to the farm, the story behind the farm is amazing and I will try my best to engage him again with better camera 🎥 and sound. Thanks 😊
I thought the numbers where way off too. I have a paultry farm and even the structure should be more than what they estimated and then we have to be really be realistic because paultry farming is no joke at all. If any one is going in please be fully prepared!
@@abunkumbuilsah3155 yes it’s indeed no joke. I got started with 2000 birds, and man oo man it’s actually eating off all my resources
