how much are your green houses from dubai say for 30 by 8 mtres

Am also thinking about going into farming as a long term venture and have several questions? have already looked at the mashada blog, but questions were unanswered.

- I need contacts of someone who can do market research for me?
- When doing greenhouse farming, how does one time the planting seasons in order to capitalise on the market?
- what are the expected turnovers in green house farming say on an 1/8 when planting tomatoes?
- Apart from Amiran who have a package with the greenhouses et al, which other company does this especially targeting new farmers with no experience at all?

Limitations in scope... isn't a cow as good in Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda as it would be in Kenya...

Even the wazua admin knows that there are alot of people who post from the diaspora..

We need to adjust our thinking.. discussing raila and UK (mama mboga banter)is a tad myopic.. we need to think beyond our borders... some of the more successful people in farming are those who have dared to venture and get goods beyond borders...

most people can't tell you a thing about what happens once the horticultural produce arrives at the airport.

Please consider using HDPE pipes - the ones sold in rolls of like 100m. Visit Doshi on Mombasa road.

They are flexible and need very little plumbing. They have a longer useful life - especially if exposed to the sun, they don't break easily. Found them to be at comparable cost to the normal PVC pipes. Make sure you get a plumber who has used them before.
